If you have children, take pictures of their friends
and start a scrapbook. Collect addresses and phone numbers so your
kids can keep in touch at holidays and other times.
Have your friends pick up any items you are giving
away. These should all be out of the way before you begin packing in
earnest.
Collect any items which you have loaned to neighbors
or friends. Return those which you have borrowed. Pick up items on lay
away, anything being repaired or dry cleaned, film being developed,
and any other similar articles.
Donate other things to charity. Get a receipt for tax
purposes.
Start saying farewell to friends and neighbors. Making
just a few calls a day will give your more time as moving day
approaches for last minute things.
Give your new address and phone number in writing to
your friends when you see them.
Continue using up your coupons (movie theaters, free
passes, green stamps, pool passes, etc.) Give the rest away.
