Welcome to another Thrifty Gurl post!
Now if you have used your free time to make phone calls...did the legwork...and scored that great rental...which I hope you obtained on a Move-In Special...then its time to move your belongings in on your move-in date. But what if you don't have furniture or maybe not enough to furnish your new place? This is where in many cities the shelter option can really be beneficial. If your city has a Furniture Bank or even offers assistance through the Salvation Army you can get a voucher from the shelter you were in. Check with your city for the protocol. I will tell you that many furniture stores donate their floor models to furniture banks so you can really get great stuff. I didn't know this but I had a very good person who was a God Send that chose the very best stuff for me. God bless her always!
A word about the Move-In Specials...most rental places are in direct competition for your rental dollars so you will see signs with posted with $99 move-in or 1st month free...etc. To save extra $$$ move in in the middle of the month and save even more because your first month will be pro-rated.
Enjoy your new digs!
