nbr: affordable window coverings

goosh24

I've been putting off buying new curtains for the living room but now that the furniture looks way better, we need to get new curtains.  Wow, curtains are freaking expensive!  I looked at Kohls, JCP, and Walmart online and I just need them for 3 windows, which are pretty standard size. Where have you found affordable curtains?  I definitely need curtains, we're on a main road in town and have sheers underneath as well. 

Oh and I need rods too since the old ones are attached to the old curtains.

Not sure if you have one near you, but Kmart actually has a pretty nice selection. Also, I've found some reasonable curtains at Target.

I've had good luck in the past at Target for both curtains and rods.

ETA: Do you have a Boscov's? Ours has a really good selection at decent prices.

I've gotten curtains at Tuesday Morning, Lowes, TJ Maxx.

Pottery Barn had a great thick basic curtain that we have at every window for $35 for the basic floor length. They have a ton of colors, well like 7 but I think it's a lot. They really help keep the cold out and the heat out too even though they aren't insulated.
