  Yes it’s run by the company that owns Marshalls and T.J.Maxx, but don’t dismiss HomeGoods as a source only for home kitsch and novelty art. Past the knickknacks lies a king-size array of top-shelf sheets, duvets, comforters, and pillows for up to 60 percent less than, say, Bed Bath & Beyond’s. A recent visit turned up half-off DKNY sheet sets, Ralph Lauren comforters for $100 (originally $150), and DVF Home flat sheets for $25 (originally $80). Nowhere will you find more bang for your bedding buck.
