What's Your Hosting Style?
Here’s How to Throw Your Ideal Housewarming
Once you’ve unpacked the boxes and arranged
the furniture in your new home, there’s only one thing left to do: host a housewarming. It’s the people that make a house a home, after all, so inviting a few (or a few dozen) of your friends, family, and neighbors over is the best way to christen a new space. A housewarming doesn’t have to be a big undertaking, either — especially when you take advantage of the unlimited 3% Cash Back benefit of the TD Cash Credit Card. Take the quiz to discover how to throw the style of party that’s right for you and make it a little easier with a few smart hosting tips.

Family-Style Feast
It’s all about quality over quantity for you, so warm your home with an intimate gathering of your nearest and dearest. A family-style dinner party allows for plenty of good conversation while loved ones are passing platters of pasta or salad down the table and lets everyone start to get comfortable in your new space. You don’t even have to spend hours in the kitchen prepping
the meal — just order some crowd-pleasing takeout from a local restaurant. Think: spaghetti with meatballs, Thai curries with heaps of coconut rice, or a burrito bar with all the fixings. Better yet, you can earn unlimited 3% Cash Back when you use your TD Cash Credit Card. It lets you choose where you want to earn unlimited 3% Cash Back — like on dining, groceries, or gas.

Big Group Bash
The more, the merrier is your motto. Since you love a good party, why not take the occasion to invite your friends, family, coworkers, and new neighbors to a housewarming bash? You’ll be too busy mingling and socializing to deal with high-maintenance food options, so keep your hosting plan simple. Coolers stocked with chilled beverages and platters full of appetizers ensures everyone will have enough to graze on, without requiring tons of work on your part. Make it even easier on yourself by stocking up on no-cook appetizer options, like crudites and dips or an extra-large charcuterie board. With the TD Cash Credit Card, you can earn unlimited 3% Cash Back on the category of your choice — including groceries. It’s the perfect way to make hosting a big party even more rewarding.

A Drop-In Hang
Your life always feels busy, so when it’s time to make plans with friends, you love to keep things relaxed. A housewarming shouldn’t feel any different, so take the pressure off yourself and your friends by sending out an invite for an open house-style hang. Give guests a time range of a few hours when they can drop by your new place. Some might come for an hour; others might stay just long enough for a tour. Anything goes! The only thing you really need to do is send out some invitation texts and order takeout from a local restaurant for your guests to nibble on. Choose dishes that don’t need to be reheated, like chips and salsa from a nearby Mexican restaurant or pastries from a local bakery you want to try. Best of all, when you order everything with your TD Cash Credit Card, you can earn unlimited 3% Cash Back on dining (or any category of your choice).
