I'm on a college campus, so I don't have access to a convenience store, or believe me, I'd be drowning in Nyquil right now. Anything that I can do to go to sleep more easily or to at least get rid of my stuffy nose?

Try a hot shower. The steam will help clear your head and the shower will help you relax enough to get to sleep.

Sit in the bathroom with a hot shower running. The steam will help break up the conjestion.

Put some warm mustard oil in your nose(2-3 drops)
It will work and be in a warm area and try hot tea or tomato soup

Either a hot shower or stand outside the tub with hot water running. Also, as a preventative, gargle with water and one tsp of salt.

honey in hot water, let the honey melt and drink it, add a teeny weeny bit of ginger, and drink it warm. If this does not work then go to yr local pharmacists, or GP

If you have something really spicy/hot to eat it would get the fluids running. If not, get your washcloft and get it as warm as you can and lay that across your face. You will be able to breathe.

You could try some steam if you have access to a hotplate and a pan.

Take a nasal decongestant. Drink brandy with milk.
That should help you sleep.
