Evidence: Described by posterThe person describes what happened in words, without screenshots or video.

Context: Written before the move; the result isn't reported.

Outcome

Moving house, starting a new job and turning 40 within two weeks, a poster asked ChatGPT to act as her moving assistant and create a day-by-day plan up to the move. She shared her prompt, which asks for 3 to 5 priority tasks a day, a packing focus, admin tasks, 15-minute meals using what's left in the kitchen, a moving-day food plan and a first-day survival box checklist. She says the clear to-do list made everything feel more manageable.

You are an expert moving consultant. Create a comprehensive, stress-free moving plan tailored to my specific situation. Use the details below to generate a personalized day-by-day action plan.
Optional stronger version

Our rewrite with extra checks. The poster didn't test it.

Run this task now, exactly as written below. Everything you need is here, so start straight away and only stop if something required is missing or a rule below tells you to.

Goal: Make a day-by-day plan for my move, including packing, admin and easy meals.

Fill in before running:
- Move date and days left: [DETAILS]
- Household (adults, kids, pets): [DETAILS]
- Kitchen situation and dietary needs: [DETAILS]
- Local or long-distance, and housing type: [DETAILS]
- Anything special (work travel, newborn, etc.): [DETAILS]

Rules:
- Give 3 to 5 priority tasks per day with a packing focus for each day.
- Include admin deadlines: address changes, utilities, notices.
- Plan quick meals that use up what's in the kitchen.
- Add a first-day box list and documents to carry myself.
- If a site asks for a login, a CAPTCHA or payment details, stop and hand control back to me.
- Ask for my OK before you pay, book, send, submit or cancel anything.
- Check facts that can change (prices, opening hours, dates, availability, rules) against the official source, and tell me anything you couldn't verify.
- Check utility and address-change lead times with each provider, since some need a week or more.

Output: A daily plan, a meal plan with grocery lists, and a critical-reminders checklist.

You'll know it worked when: every room is packed and every admin task done by moving day.

Before you finish: re-read my goal and constraints, check your answer against each one, and list anything you assumed or couldn't confirm.

    With a house closing the next day and a move a month away, the Get On With It blogger asked Perplexity for an exhaustive, categorized, copyable checklist covering admin, address changes and tasks they might not think of, like checking the new furnace filter. Perplexity returned a checkable list split into pre-move, moving-day and post-move tasks, with cited sources.

  • A product manager says a friend moving house used ChatGPT to rank areas by commute, local shops and safety before choosing a place, then Gemini to build a moving checklist and rough budget in Google Sheets, then ChatGPT image generation for interior design ideas. The friend, who doesn't work in tech, said it was easier than expected.

  • Make sense of dealership lease printouts mid-visit with ChatGPTRecreated promptEvidence: Described by posterBeginner-friendly

    A first-time car shopper who found the dealer's math confusing asked for a minute alone, took screenshots of the printouts, gave ChatGPT some context and asked how to negotiate and which options were right for her family. She says it explained the pros and cons clearly and told her what to negotiate; she followed about 90% of its advice, said 'no' about 4 times to 'meet in the middle' offers, and leased the car on her terms.
