I love the cubes because I can pack more 🎉 However, when I go to lift it, I realize I've once again over packed 😂

[@karenweidner7863]

To keep my dirty clothes from making my luggage stink I use giant Ziploc bags and I never have a vacuum cleaner to suck them up and make them flat so I sit on them then I close them and they're just as flat and your suitcase don't pick up the older

[@brendaj.jaramillo1090]

I love using packing cubes and everything fits and less space taken up

[@MsBackstager]

A simple and FREE way to have light in the room while you sleep (instead of getting a cheap night light) is just turn on the bathroom light and close the door until only a crack of light peaks out. It works wonders.

[@pbasnya]

Yup I do the same

[@pbasnya]

I use grocery bags instead of shower caps for shoes

[@christinatady4951]

Unless a fan is connected to the light. The Dollar Tree night light is so compact.❤

[@dianespizzirri8140]

Your Dollar Tree has much better stuff than mine!

[@dorothylewis1207]

Love,love,love, the Shower Cap shoe covers, did I mention I Love the idea🤔😄😄 I might put a rubber band around just to make sure. Don't know what those shoes have walked in🤮

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Dorothy so glad!

[@susandrwiega4342]

I bought the shoe covers for when contractors and repairmen come to our house and there is quite a few in the package. Try looking for them in the dollar tree . I'm sure going to try them for my shoes next trip. Have fun 😊

[@susanszymanski4244]

Don’t forget that you need your prescription bottles when traveling, especially out of the country

[@teddymcqueen812]

nope

[@lindapawson3445]

I use packing cubes all the time when traveling. I have both the regular cubes and compressed ones. I like how it keeps my things neat and organized. You also can put the cubes in the drawers at hotels.

[@shannonskiptomylife]

That's a great idea!

[@zilam98]

Why have both kinds of cubes?

[@cametientaucoeur]

After loading & weighing my large samsonite suitcase for overseas trips, I would roll it to the back of our SUV empty. I could easily lift it empty. Then I would carry out clothes & put them in the opened suitcase in the back of the SUV. Saved my back. Jeanne

[@VV-nk1yj]

Lol! That's how i unpack my big suitcase because i live in a 2nd floor apt. It's easy to get my suitcase down the stairs, but kills me to get the full suitcase back up the stairs.

[@lynnleipold2617]

Smart

[@milkamichellevladic7514]

Love your clear pouches with the pretty stickers idea. I travel a lot and will try that.

[@shannonskiptomylife]

So glad you liked it!

[@richardlynngarst3728]

I love packing cubes for ease of packing/unpacking when we are going to several destinations or overnight stops but my “aha” moment was at the airport for an international flight. Many of our fellow passengers were scrambling to adjust clothes to avoid overweight baggage charges. It was a bit embarrassing to watch the chaos as clothes were shuffled, falling onto the floor and just creating more mess than it was solving. One of our bags was 2 lbs over the limit (evidently our scale was not calibrated as well as the airline’s). All I did was open my suitcase, grab two of the larger cubes, weighed them and threw them into my personal bag. Easy peasy and took less than a couple minutes. That experience made me a true believer in using cubes or, because I am cheap, I now also use our reusable shopping bags in the same way except I will sort by day, rolling all the clothes I plan for the entire day, place them in the bag, roll the bag shut and into the suitcase. When we get to our destination, I have gotten lazy enough to simply place the bag handles over clothes hangers and hang it in the closet, especially if the clothes don’t need to be hung to get wrinkles out.

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Genius ideas! Thx for sharing!!

[@susandrwiega4342]

What do the packing cubes look like again I forgot

[@karenjerread2098]

The cotton swab container would make a great little first aid kit.

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Ooo. Love that idea Karen!

[@MsMorganGirls]

I thought the same thing. I've also used a large Tic-Tac container.

[@jacquelinegonzalez3285]

I love packing cubes especially the compression ones, saves room and if you are staying at one location, it's easy to pack and unpack and keeping everything organized. I do both roll and fold within the packing cubes depends on my luggage and the items i'm packing, shirts, vs bottoms vs jeans vs leggings vs yoga pants etc.

[@Thatlakelife]

I have tried every way possible to pack and I absolutely LOVE packing cubes! I love to grab them and put them in the drawers and then my clothes don’t have to touch the inside of the drawers and I stay so organized! Compression cubes are great too!

[@cathycoats8607]

I wasn’t sure about packing cubes either until I finally used them. Now I love them! I love the tip on using shower caps for our shoes.Thanks for these tips.

[@shannonskiptomylife]

You are so welcome!

[@kaylaEA_]

I like to pack my packing cubes by the day or if going to several destinations by the destination. Makes packing and unpacking easier.

[@sandykoca776]

The cotton swab container would make a great travel blister kit - just add bandaids, ointment and moleskin for your shoes.

[@clbert7460]

My thoughts too!

[@pennywhitaker7092]

Compression packing cubes are the best with rolling your clothes Keeps you more organized and you can get in more. You can just use plastic bags for shoes.

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Penny great idea!

[@dedestaggs5093]

You can use the tip case for hairpins

[@linkedinroses9447]

I like the DT vacuum bags for packing instead of cubes TFS 🙏

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Yes I have used those also! Thx for watching.

[@juliewendt724]

The reusable snack bags with stickers will be amazing in a cute little backpack I bought that has no pockets. Also love the pillbox idea for my earrings and small pendant necklaces!!

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Julie so glad!

[@Melodypodrasky]

Great ideas! I’ve been using packing cubes. For a few years now. You definitely can get more in them than rolling method.❤

[@dorothylewis1207]

Bobbie Brown Always uses Packing Cubes 👍👍👍

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Absolutely!!

[@patriciapatcheco6034]

[@nancyfeeser4653]

Take a towel rack is brilliant!! Buying one in my next trip to DT

[@iriswelch3553]

Dollar Tree bandaids $1.25 vs. $5.50 at the local drug stores! Yes!

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Iris love this!

[@dorothylewis1207]

Love Dollar Tree 💙🩵💜💚💛🩷💯💥

[@kimhanback1302]

I use the contact containers per your suggestion for my earrings. I left home this morning for a 10-day trip and have my stud earrings in the contact cases. I love my packing cubes. I use them for bras, panties and socks.

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Kim love it! Have a great trip!!

[@nancyfeeser4653]

Team cube to keep items separated

[@jang6894]

Plastic case is good for ear buds, charging cable, thumb drive/SD card, etc.

[@treyon_love9564]

The cotton swabs containers can be used to hold Bobby pins and crunches. Also jewelry. Tiny screws for eye glasses.

[@lisawerschkul5953]

Rolled in compression cubes!

[@lorenadugan6355]

I’d do both roll in then grooves. I also use packing cubes because it keeps me organized.

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Great idea!

[@Idagramos]

Packing cubes is the best way for me, I've been using them since they basically came out. I love HSN's Samantha Brown luggage and packing cubes. ;) Thanks for all the heads up and for sharing. Great video.

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Totally agree!

[@lindajohnson24]

I use compression packing cubes.They are great.

[@mommybreakdown]

I’m running out for packing cubes. Love!! Thank you

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Yippee! Have fun, friend!!

[@thedragonflygirl77]

For privacy with luggage tags, just fill out the card they come with, but don't put that on the outside. Just turn it over and write something like "See other side for details" or just "See over". That way people can easily see your name address or phone number, but should your luggage get lost and someone actually needs to contact you, they can take out the card.

[@mariamills2367]

I don’t use packing cubes but I do use the SHEIN/Temu bags… and I pack extra for wet clothes and whatever issues I can run into without taking up room

[@Amtrak.taz.]

I have the rhinestone stickers decorating my black cell phone case.

[@debraloveday6879]

I love packing cubes 😊

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Me too!!

[@janicekirkwelfare7215]

Good ideas. Another idea for the suitcase tags is to put the info card in the tag facing away from the window so if anyone takes a peek, they can only see the blank side. Don't include any address info, just your name and an email address or telephone number.

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Great idea!

[@sarahschreffler5407]

PLEASE include at least a telephone number. If someone else picks up your luggage and you are left with only theirs left, you'll be very happy to have a way to get a hold of them immediately and not wait for them to check their email (assuming you have the ability to write an email from the airport)

[@mary-ruthflores4107]

I put my initials on the blank side, and turn the info to the inside. But there is a quick ID if anyone questions

[@cullensistah]

I flip my tag over with my info facing backwards, but I write "see info on back". I also put a copy of my driver's license and passport in each bag as well.

[@kaylaEA_]

@@cullensistahIf possible, I would hide this inside the suitcase lining. That way if the bag is lost that info is hard to find, but you know where it is.

[@lindagraves4121]

Great ideas!!! I plan on using many this summer. Thanks! 😊

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Linda I hope you have a great trip! Thanks for watching.

[@judysbakeryandtestkitchen1654]

[@hollyj2925]

I would put dental floss picks in the qtip container. I m disabled have bad back neck feet pain so going on vacation is difficult. I can go the beach don't think id take a plane. I really enjoyed this 11:26 video! Thank you for sharing these great travel and packing tips.

[@shannonskiptomylife]

[@nurrooper]

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Yeah! So glad you got some ideas!

[@maricelaandsammyshauls894]

Tfs love dollar tree

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Me too!

[@davidlock8448]

Using my packing cubes helps my back I just lift the cubes out and I know what is in each. Also then you don’t have to put the suitcase on clean surfaces.

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Great idea!!

[@lisawerschkul5953]

Ur Doxie is beautiful❤

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Thanks!

[@royclark5426]

Tooth pick holder with the Q-tip holder

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Yes!!!

[@ashleycallis7638]

The hard case first aid or glasses fixing kit

[@amydamon3370]

I roll my clothes AND THEN put them into a packing cube. It seems to double reduce my amount of space in the suitcase.

[@lyndseymcphail7836]

Where did you get that black tote bag purse? Thank you

[@shannonskiptomylife]

[@jessicaquiroz7178]

Some places require you to have your medicine in the original bottle. Trust me I have a plastic shoe box full of my medicine and supplies and I hate having to lug that thing around.

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Jessica great point! Thanks for watching.

[@sandradisclafani6725]

❤👍

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Thx Sandra!

[@LisaH.-ee3hh]

💜💕💜

[@kittykathy9532]

I have three of those medicine holders. They work well!🎉

[@jodydevine5378]

Link for the carry on? Love it

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Jody here’s the link: rstyle.me/+2QatUYPpCCPCUw7GlO4Xfg it says out of stock but put it in your cart and they will notify you when it’s back. Thx for watching!!

[@fburton8455]

My store doesn't have these items

[@tonyabailey741]

Bandaid or toothpick s

[@heidicanton956]

Imagine if you used compression cubes!

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Yes Heidi! Good point.

[@krisredlee]

Double check the zip locks the large one wasn't sealed.

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Thanks Kris!

[@susandrwiega4342]

Would a deck of cards fit in it. Or maybe some face.asks

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Susie love these ideas!

[@patriciafennell4242]

Business cards

[@AA-hy6dz]

Is this a Dollar tree video or Level 8 review?

[@SoulfulWarrior73]

Instead of putting all my info on the luggage tag, I just put my name and company I traveled with. They have all my information and can look it up if my luggage is returned.

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Great idea!

[@mary-ruthflores4107]

Is there someone who can pull the info 24/7? A buddy of mine worked the return/lost luggage and he said that they would try the info several times and if they didn’t get an answer they didn’t worry about it. I would atlest have my cell phone number on the tag

[@angiehunt8057]

Just went to my local $Tree ... Disgusted to say the least ..Full loaded carts taking up room ...Store looked Trashed .... Wont be going back ....

[@user-zl7ec2lg6e]

Problem with your medicine containers. Prescription drugs HAVE to be in original bottles!!!!

[@frankiegreen2369]

So I'm guessing you don't like Amazon lol

[@BellyliciousMama]

Besides the cotton swabs you can put flossers or tongue scrappers.
