Moving In
Label your boxes by room so they get put in the right spot the first time

Label your rooms (bedroom 1,2, living room etc) so your movers know what goes where

Focus on unpacking your bedroom first- then work on one room at a time

Start with the essentials and purchase the more secondary items in stages

Comforts of Home
You want your place to functional, but don't go overboard with unnecessary clutter

Nesting takes money, so opt for high efficiency appliances to save you in the long run

Put money back in your pocket, look for special deals & coupons
