I have just brought my first house!

I move in next week!

I'm really looking forward to it and can't wait to get those keys!

Ok so i'm not the first person in the world to be in this situation. But to me it is a new feeling and comes with tremendouse stresses and pressures which I havn't had to deal with before.

In between my day job and dealing with the solicitors and the estate agents, i'm worrying about the mortgage. Is the money going to get here on time? What if the contracts don't get exchanged? I hope I don't get gazzumped!

Finally I stop and have a think, then it hits me....

I havn't actually got anything for my new house! I need a fridge freezer, a washing machine, an oven. And the list goes on! I don't have time to go around the shops and compare prices. Let alone have the means to store everything before I get the house!

What am I going to do?

I know, i'll buy everthing online. Great, problem solved!

So, I get my laptop out and start surfing the Internet looking for the best deals and best prices.

Hours go by and I havn't actually made a purchase! I'm on a budget so I have to watch the pennies.

I find the product I want and think to myself, Can I get it cheaper elsewhere? so I go to another retailers website and start my search again. I do this a few times only to realise that the first place I looked was the cheapest anyway. How frustrating!

After an hour or two goes buy and my shopping list isn't really getting any smaller I think Why can't the High Street be online in one place? Wouldn't it be great if i could search one website with products from all retailers and compare the prices at the same time!

I typed into the Address bar http://www.thehighstreetonline.com to see if it had been done and to my pleasure, it has!

I found a great website which has all the major retailers and brands and even compares the prices.

If only I new about this great service before I wasted all that time!

Anyway, I searched for each of the products on my list and compared all the prices and then went off to the cheapest retailers website and made my purchases. All within 30 minutes.

This was fantastic, I now know that when I move in to my new house next week, I don't have to worry about being without the basic utilities like a fridge freeze, wahing machine etc. It is all being delivered the day after I move in.

All I have to do now is wait and keep my fingers crossed that the house purchase goes through without a hitch!

Please learn from my experiences and make the most of the free services out there, like http://www.thehighstreetonline.com
