[itsbritneybiatches]

Not really aibu but posting for traffic.

He's moving Friday, we've bought the below (unexpected tax rebate so he's very lucky).

What have we forgotten? Or what was invaluable to you when you first moved, I can't remember it was so long ago!

Sofa
Microwave
Kettle
Fridge freezer
Toaster
Knives and forks
Tin opener
Bed
Bedding & duvet set
Pans
Tea towels
Towels
First freezer shop - to be done
Wardrobe is built in
Kitchen starter set as in fish slice etc

Basic tool set? Few screwdrivers and pliers?

Mugs or glasses?

Cash for a takeaway for the first night you move as you are too tired to cook

He's a tradesman he's got more tools than me.

Forgot to add glasses etc his mum has got those

Cash for a takeaway is a good call

And cutlery and plates (WINE GLASSES) packed at the top of a marked box!

Is he going to be bring his laundry home because there's no mention of washing machine, iron or ironing board.

Hoover
Dustpan and brush
Plunger
Cleaning supplies
Bin / bags
Tv
Lamp
Coffee table
Somewhere to eat his meals?

Trash cans
Hangers

Toilet roll !

A lighter/matches/candles
Washing up liquid/dishwasher tablets/dish cloths
Batteries for remotes
Coat hangers
Toilet roll

Bin bags

Cutlery drawer tray thing
Ironing board/iron

Loo roll! Kitchen bin and bin bags washing up liquid and bowl, oven trays and cleaning products (may want to give place a once over when you get in so mop and bucket dust pan and brush, Hoover unless you need to lend his. Assuming he's got a tv etc!)

Corkscrew/bottle opener for us, DP tried to open our celebratory new house beers with a knife and nearly ended up in A&E

Go to the £ shop and buy a loaf of cleaning products, cloths etc.

Plates, bowls,tv, radio, washing machine, cleaning stuff, iron and board, sellotape, vacuum, coat hangers air freshener copping board torch

If he’s a tradesman, why are you organising all of this 🤣

Please tell me he’s not 30 🤣😂

Presumably someone has thought of toilet paper, but he might need help wiping his backside 🤣

Not being mean really, but if he’s already a tradesman he can organise what he needs surely?!

...mind you, you wouldn’t want to stall one ready to fly the nest!!

Thank you these are great
Keep em coming let's spend that tax rebate lol 😂

It’s ok. You can put the balance in my account and I’ll look after it for you. I’m good like that.

He's 21.

I want to make sure he's set up then he won't come back.

Am kidding.

I want him to feel great and sorted when he spends his first night on his actual own as a man.

Washing - I will do until he gets his next pay then he wants to buy his own.

How old is he?

Do you have plates/bowls etc OP? Couldn't see them on your list or does he already have these? Vacuum cleaner and some basic cleaning stuff too!

@IncrediblySadToo

He's so mature in some ways but he's still a big kid in others.

We're setting him up. He's a good kid/man.

Grown up a lot on the 12 months he's lived with us. His mum mothered him soo much - as she would he's an only child for his mum.

I'm so proud of what he's achieved in a year

Vacuum cleaner- yes!
