===Simchat Chag===
# An activity that brings one simcha is considered a holiday need as it’s a mitzvah to have simcha on the holiday. However, there’s a boundary when something is considered simcha and it’s permitted and when it’s simply taanug, personal enjoyment, and forbidden. <Ref>

# For example, going on a family trip is considered simchat haChag and so it’s permissible to wash one’s car windows or fill up the tank in order to drive to the park. <ref> Hilchot Chol HaMoed Zichron Shlomo (pg 22) </ref>

# It’s permitted to do work for a Tzorech HaMoed from one day of Chol HaMoed in preparation for the other days of Chol HaMoed or for days of Yom Tov. <ref> Pri Megadim 533 M”Z is in doubt whether one may cook from one day of Chol HaMoed for another, however the Kaf HaChaim 533:6 rules it’s permissible. So rules Hilchot Chol HaMoed Zichron Shlomo (pg 18) that it’s permissible. Additionally, Hagot Rabbi Akiva Eiger 539:11, Eshel Avraham 330, and Hilchot Chol HaMoed Zichron Shlomo (pg 18) write that it’s permissible to cook from Chol HaMoed to Yom Tov including Yom Tov Sheni of Galiyot. </ref>
