I picked out these plastic drawers at Wal-mart. They sell each drawer
separately, they're really sturdy, and I like them a lot better than
those three-drawer plastic dressers I always see and have owned in the
past. These are very square, seem to utilize all the space they can.
They're pretty expensive though, the big ones at $17ish and small at
$13ish. All 4 with tax were around $65ish. I thought I would use them
enough to make it worth it. I even planned the height of my bed to
them.
Literally during the drive home from finally
buying them, I passed two of them 3-drawer units out by someone's
trashcan. I couldn't resist. I turned around and picked them up.
Brought them home, found that they come apart easily, so I can just
take one drawer out to fit under my bed. So i took them all apart and
hosed them down and scrubbed them a little and decided to take the
others back to Wal-mart. My new ones are not nearly as nice, but to
save $65, they are definitely worth it. They are shorter, so there is a
gap between them and the bed, but it has turned out nice. It is
perfect storage for my laptop at the end next to my chair and I stuff
seldom used clothes on top the other and utilize some of the space up
behind the edge board on my bed, but below the plywood.

Free things are always the most appreciated by me.
