Furnishing a place without losing track of what it costs
Moving is the longest shopping project most people ever run: months long, dozens of items, several shops, and usually two people who need to agree.
The total is the whole point
Individually every item seems reasonable. The question that actually matters — what does all of this come to — is the one no shop can answer, because each of them only knows its own share.
One cart across every shop gives you that number while you can still do something about it.
A cart per room, if it helps
Some people keep one cart for the whole place; some split it by room so the kitchen can be finished without the bedroom being decided. Either works — what matters is that a cart maps to something you are trying to finish.
Decide together, not in a chat
Share the cart with whoever you are moving in with. Three sofas next to each other with their prices is a conversation you can actually have; three links sent on a Tuesday is not.
Bought things get out of the way
Mark things purchased as they arrive and the cart shrinks to what is left, which over a few months is the difference between a list you use and a list you avoid.
