I am moving into my first home. I need to get the essential. What would be needed? I need everything!?

I have furniture like a couch, recliner, dining room table, and bedroom set. What else do you need to have a fully functionable liveable home?

    congratulations on your first home. it's so nice to have a feeling of having your own place.

    i believe you need some things for the kitchen, you need to eat right? even if you're not planning to cook you still need kitchen items. i really cannot tell you what to buy because you never mention your budget.i assume you're in the US so maybe you can try to go to walmart or target or even bed bath and beyond visit these stores but don't buy yet. just make a list of things that you think you need. then try going to the thrift stores, yes the thrift stores. they have a lot of good stuff there and within a fraction of the prices at the stores i've mention. but just do this if you don't mind having used items. half of my stuff in my house came from yard sales and thrift stores. you just need to be patient and scour the store.

    well if you have money to spend by all means go to macy's or other fine stores.

    i wish you well.
