I'm moving out my new house what do I need 1st ever grocery/cleaning/toiletry shop xxxx
 
Um the things that come to mind are...toliet paper, paper towels and/or napkins, tissues, shampoo, conditioner, bodywash, toothpaste, soap, all foods that you want or think you will need, windex and/or lysol or any cleaning sprays really. Also I think lysol cleaning wipes or any kind of cleaning wipes are very helpful. Sponges. I feel like there is more you need in your house but I can't think of it right now.

Hopefully that helped some.
 
We took:
Loo roll, household cleaner, multi purpose wipes, sponges, washing up liquid, hair products, toiletries, pots and pans, kettle toaster and microwave, mugs and crockery, cutlery, bedding, clothes, storage boxes and home comforts.

Our parents made us food and cleaning packages that we took but had to buy loads from wilkinsons once we moved in :)
 
Food wise make sure you have:
Bread, milk, pasta, rice, sauce mixes and juices
Other stuff you can get on a day to day basis. Means you only buy what you actually want/need.
Helps that my fridge is tiny here!
 
Cleaning:
Anti bacterial spray (will do kitchen & bathroom)
Washing up liquid
Toilet cleaner
Sponges
Cloths
Sweeping brush

Toiletries:
Body wash
Shampoo
Conditioner
Sponge
Soap
Toothbrush
Toothpaste
deoderant
Toilet paper

Food (easy stuff until your sorted)
Bread
milk
juice
something to put on a sandwich
Pasta
Pasta sauce
Anything else you like really

yea, i do weekly i picked a few things to make, but now that i've been on my own for a few months I'm starting to get more things, lol at 1st i didnt even have salt or pepper :haha:
 
We still don't! But we have tea coffee and hot chocolate so I'm happy!
It helps my oh works in tescos so he picks up 2 days worth of meals for us and some essentials. Means that we don't buy food and waste it. Also means i have to cook from fresh :)

Bathroom essentials:
