Housewarming List

New homes come with a lot of gaps and a lot of well-meaning candles. A housewarming list means the people who want to help you settle in actually know what would help.

Why a housewarming list beats hinting to visitors

Most people never register for a housewarming at all, so friends and family default to whatever's safe and generic: a candle, a bottle of wine, a plant that may or may not survive the move. Hey Yoink lets you register for the actual things a new home needs, a proper set of tools, kitchen basics you haven't gotten around to buying, a decent vacuum, and pull in the real photo, price, and store link automatically, no matter which store it's from.

It's completely free, with no premium tier, and it works whether you're furnishing a first apartment or finally settling into a house after years of renting.

One link for the housewarming party, and beyond

Share your list before the party, in the group chat, or on the invite itself, and anyone who wants to bring something useful instead of a guess can see exactly what's still needed. It's not limited to the party either: a list that stays open for a few weeks means friends who can't make the actual housewarming can still send something that actually helps.

No third candle, no crossed wires

Once someone claims an item, it disappears from what everyone else sees is available, so you don't end up with two coffee makers and a stack of unlit candles nobody needed. Claims stay private from you too, so there's still something to unwrap or discover even when you know roughly who's coming.

For a bigger item, a proper sofa, a decent set of cookware, a few friends can chip in together and split the cost right inside Hey Yoink, rather than each buying something smaller that doesn't add up to what you actually needed.

Not sure what a new home even needs yet?

If you haven't moved before, or you're just blanking on what to add, ask Hey Yoink for suggestions based on what you tell it about the place and it'll offer ideas to fill out the list. Keep what's useful, skip what isn't, and add anything specific you already know you're missing.

List what the new place is missing and send the link with the invites.
