The answers to today's Strands, game #156, are SHEET BLANKET TOWEL PILLOWCASE 
TABLECLOTH SPANGRAM: LINENCLOSET My rating: Moderate My score: 1 hint 

I was a little thrown by the theme clue of 'Bed, bath and beyond' today, 
going down a slightly wrong route due to the 'bath and beyond' aspect. 
Unknown to me at the time I played, Bed, Bath & Beyond was a US retailer 
specializing in homewares, a fact of which I'm sure anyone reading this is 
North America will be aware. However, I'm writing this in the UK, and I 
wasn't aware of it  which meant I didn't realize the 'bath' aspect in 
particular was a red herring for the game  and indeed, that the likes of 
TABLECLOTH and TOWEL (two things that don't go on a bed) might also be 
included. 

As it happens, I found SHEET and BLANKET on my own, then got TOWEL via a 
hint, and that gave me enough info to be able to find the rest, including the 
spangram LINENCLOSET.
