That way, it's a little harder for one person to screw over everyone else in the money department.I've found that, generally, food should not be shared unless it's explicitly decided in advance. Labeling your stuff is the best way to go, especially if people use the same brands.As for scheduling kitchen and bathroom time, I've never found that to be problematic. Usually there's a sort of unspoken agreement (Steve and Bill are morning shower people, Mike is a night shower person, Steve will shower first, etc.). If it does start to irritate people, working out some sort of timing would be good. Make sure you post it somewhere so everyone can see it and talk about it regularly, to make sure it's still working. And, obviously, work on the schedule together.Ditto with chores. If people are cool with just doing them, that's fine. But if someone keeps slacking, or some particular chore never gets done, a weekly (or daily, if necessary) schedule is good. Make sure you all agree on what exactly needs to be done (if none of you care about dusting, it doesn't need to be done), and how often. Then just rotate. You could have a "house supply" of cash (a couple of bucks a month each, give it to the most responsible person) for cleaning supplies, if paying for it is an issue.For long-distance phone calls, I'd really recommend getting the cheapest unlimited incoming/local outgoing plan and having people use calling cards or cell phones for long distance.Try to get separate leases, or at least have all three parties responsible for the whole total (that is, put all three names on, not just one). It sucks if someone bails (intentionally or not) and the person whose name is listed becomes responsible for the entire thing.Good luck! Living with people is both a joy and a pain, as I'm sure you can figure out. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /></blockquote>
