Hi everyone!
I need your guidance on where to look for a reasonable/inexpensive youth bedroom set. Have been looking in some stores like Rooms to go and Home Confort but doesn't find something I like in a budget friendly. Because what I had seen its always above 1300 for a 3 pc full bed with dresser and one Nightstand. Thank you so much for your inputs. Of course I'm looking for good quality and durability.
Give this place a shot. It's hit or miss, but if you can find something you need, it's cheap. It's all previously rented, but you can find stuff in good shape.
I would consider Ikea for kids' stuff. I am the first to acknowledge that it is not the best quality, but if Rooms to Go is above budget there are not many alternatives.

Craigslist or a Facebook Yardsale page for your town, if you're willing to go used, you can find good quality furniture on there for cheap. We bought a whole bedroom set on Craigslist made in Canada of real wood for my daughter for about $300. The set is probably from the 1990s, and is still in great shape. You need to check the listings daily and pounce when something good comes up.
If you don't want to go used, you can find cheap furniture at Ashley Furniture or even cheaper at Big Lots.

LOL...I bought a $100 IKEA bed for my daughter 17 years ago. I thought it was a temporary toddler bed. Last fall my younger daughter was still sleeping in it.
When she got a new 'big girl' bed (also from Ikea, purchased used from Craigslist) I tried to cut the IKEA bed up and refashion it into a storage bench for my back porch. It was impervious to being cut or drilled and I gave up. The wood on that frame was seriously solid.
Kids don't need matching furniture...I like Shelton's Furniture on Hillsborough St. in Raleigh. Add in some paint and you've got yourself money leftover for a nice new rug.
Have you tried the Home Comfort Clearance Outlet? It's not the 'regular' one, but just north of Crabtree on Glenwood. They've got great prices and offer same-day delivery (or at least they did a few years ago when I last bought from them). I think it's mainly just stuff that didn't sell quickly at the main store and/or some returns. Didn't see a lot of damaged items, but they had a few marked down considerably with explanations on the tags.
I bought a master bedroom suite and at a different time a china hutch from them and was very please with all the items and the service.
Check out Heavner Furniture on Glenwood and there is a new furniture store in the old Sears in Cary Towne Center. Both had some very reasonably priced children's furniture.
