Packing Supplies

Good Morning! It is going to be a fun day. I am going shopping today to buy stuff for our move! Woo hoo!

Ok, that may not be everyone’s idea of fun, but I truthfully am looking forward to it. I don’t mind packing and am getting really excited about this next adventure Josh and I are embarking on. And part of that adventure requires going to the store and picking up different necessities to aid in the packing process.

I have been scouring Pinterest looking for the best moving tips and tricks people have shared. And I mean I have been scouring! I am not just pinning things about moving, I am actually opening up the Pin and reading the article to make sure it’s worth me holding on to. (Not my typical practice for the other categories I Pin for).

While there have been a lot of duplicate ideas and others that are just not worthy of their time (I am not cutting handles into every box!) I think I have come across enough that will make our move somewhat seamless.

I am even more excited because I love saving money and all of the ideas I found can be implemented for next to nothing.

So today I am going to head over to the local Dollar Tree. I always forget about this store which is goofy because you can get a lot of decent stuff for $1! Thankfully most of the articles I read mentioned they grabbed their supplies there so I have it stuck in my head to go there.

You may be wondering what kind of supplies someone who is moving needs, and to be honest the list isn’t extensive. In fact, most of it is common sense stuff:

·         Packing tape

·         Masking tape

·         Foam plates

·         Saran Wrap

·         Clorox wipes

·         Bar soap

·         Colored Post-Its

I can’t wait to get started! Stay-tuned for exactly how I will use each of these items once the packing process begins!
