Charity shops always take hangers in my experience.

Second John Lewis for bedding; that's where we always buy ours. Except if you're really short of money, I'd recommend IKEA; their bedding is nothing like as nice, but insanely cheap. Get new bedding that you really love.

You didn't mention fitted sheets; I hope that's not because you don't have any.

I did not deem my fitted sheets worthy of mention, as I found I have them in sufficient but not excessive quantity :-)

It seems an indulgence buying really good bed linen, but it's so nice.

I suspect it's like buying a really good winter coat or good trousers: you'll have it enough longer that the Vimes Boot Principle comes into play. (This assumes, a safe assumption in your specific case and mine, that the buyer is not so fashion-driven or impulsive as to replace her bed linens every year purely because she wants new colors.) Bed linens may be a better place to apply this than clothes, as beds are less likely than their inhabitants to need new clothes because they gain, lose, or redistribute weight.

Mattress: I'm not fat, I'm just overstuffed! :-)

The value for me in good bed linen is the way it feels so nice it's a pleasure to get into bed, and curl up for a good night's sleep.
