TRAVEL GIFT GUIDE | MAGGIE'S TWO CENTS

[@shayzoo2]

Thanks for sharing. I appreciate that you didn’t just mention all the same Amazon stuff everyone else suggests!

[@MaggiesTwoCents]

You're quite welcome, and I really appreciate the kind words! I'm always looking for creative gift ideas, so I'm happy to hear these were unique!

[@dumbpup]

I thought the capsules were neat until I saw they were $86 for 6. That’s absolutely absurd to spend that kind of money on empty containers

[@CT1010101]

I know, I want them but I feel insulted by the price. 😆

[@velyvely6479]

exactly! the designer lost her mind lol if you look closely in some of the shots the finish isnt that great!

[@nyssac2914]

I want them cause of how they look… but too expensive for me (and I’d have to ship to australia so not gonna happen). I’ll stick with my go tubbs!

[@gingereaves4097]

@@CT1010101 I agree completely!

[@sherunswithscissors]

I came here just to say that! They also get gunky around the threads.

[@goldchocolate13]

This was so good for many reasons. I just found you but as a frequent traveler, organizer and gift giver I learned something new, your content reinforced things I liked but have put off getting and above all it was simple , clean and to the point. Whew!

Great gift guide! It’s obvious you put a lot of time into planning and executing your videos:)

[@MaggiesTwoCents]

Thank you so so much! I do, and I really appreciate your kind words!

[@Jess_Smith0903]

You “sell” these items so well, that it makes me feel like gifting some of them but making the person watch the portion of the video in which you feature said item. You explain its versatility way better than I could 😂. Also, I too own the Bose headphones and got them as a gift because I couldn’t bring myself to shell out that amount on a “simple pair of headphones”, but I just know that when mine fails me, I’ll probably march my bum right to the store and get a new pair. They are excellent and I absolutely think they’re worth the money! I’ve had mine for 7 years and they work just as if they were brand new.

[@MaggiesTwoCents]

Ah!!! Thank you so much for the kind words, and I love to hear (ha! See what I did there?) that you love the Bose headphones as much as I do!

[@laurennn0786]

[@MaggiesTwoCents]

[@AG-oj6yj]

Hi! Great gift guide, thanks for sharing, I will definitely be adding some of these to my list! Also, what shirt are you wearing? It is soooo cute!! Also also, could you do a travel make up tutorial? I love your make up look - beautiful but subtle!

[@MaggiesTwoCents]

Thank you so much! I actually rented that shirt from Nuuly, a clothing rental service I love, and I've already sent it back so I can't double check the brand. I think it was Rolla's or something along those lines!!

[@JenyaElkin]

This is such a great video!!!! We have been getting back into traveling ( now with kids after the whole craziness if the last couple of years) and I have been looking at pretty much every travel video on KZbin, it seems. 😀 your video popped up and you have such a great grasp on travel essentials!!!! I absolutely love 💖 the clear makeup/liquids bag ( will be ordering one for the upcoming trip) . Just wanted to say hi, awesome video and can't wait to see what you come up with next 🌻

[@jaymerutkauskas1380]

You have helped me with gift ideas in years past, I personally bought the Bose Headphones after watching one of your videos and use them every single day and you gave me some great ideas for this year already too. So... Thank you! ❤️

Does the bigger carry on fit on international flights?

[@chocolatethunder645]

@@katecollins2471 on most! If you go on the Away website, they actually tested this and have a list of which airlines it fits on and the few it doesn’t and would need to be checked.

[@ortizle1]

I love finding organizational gadgets. When I saw the power adapter inside the suitcase I quickly went onto the site to check it out but wow they are so pricey. I don't travel that often to justify that price. I do like your recommendations. Thank you for sharing.

[@MaggiesTwoCents]

You're welcome!! Yes, the suitcase is expensive, but the quality is totally there and the lifetime warranty doesn't hurt either! :) But I think it's very prudent of you to know which products work for your budget and lifestyle! CalPak - the same company that sells the backpack I featured - sells a luggage tag portable charger that could be a good alternative for ya!

[@jennianderson608]

As always I enjoyed your well thought out gift guide.

[@MaggiesTwoCents]

Thank you so much!! Really appreciate it!

[@mbarbaris3923]

GREAT video! My daughter is a college student, so many of these products are great gift ideas for her. Thank you!

[@djamdoudou7956]

I found your gift guides so useful. I not only find ideas for my friends but also for myself. I have some of the items mentioned including the Bose headphones which are very useful in the office. This time it's the Cadence capsules that attract me. thanks again

[@chanellover2143]

Please can I ask if the cadence containers hold enough skincare for a weeks trip? Love this video by the way, great products, I’m picking up the clear toiletry bag too! 🥰

[@MaggiesTwoCents]

I just returned from 9 days in Italy, and I still have both moisturizer and cleanser left in the capsules! I’d say they probably hold enough for 12-14 days (depending on the amount of product you like to use, of course!)

[@callie6154]

Where is your top from? I really like the pattern and the colors of it.

[@MaggiesTwoCents]

Thank you!! I actually rented it from Nuuly, and I think the brand was Rolla's or something along those lines. I already sent it back or I'd be able to check for you!

I have been going back and forth on cadence for months!!! But I do enjoy good organization. first video I have seen of yours and enjoyed, Subscribed! now off to find perfect travel pillow as hotel ones sceeve me out. have you tried any inflatable?

[@MaggiesTwoCents]

Thanks for sticking around! I never travel with a pillow, to be honest, so I haven't ever been on the hunt for one! I used the Turtle neck pillow for a long flight once, and it was very "okay." That's about as far as my travel pillow research went! haha I'm sorry I can't be more help there!

I am going to Hawaii in a couple months. Were you able to use The Bigger Carry on as your actual carry-on? I noticed it’s slightly bigger than American Airlines guideline. Just want to make sure before I purchase.

I traveled to Hawaii in my Meduim sized suitcase that I checked, but my husband traveled with his bigger carry on and stored it in the overhead bin without issue!

[@hollicarter3216]

Is the Calpak clear bag TSA approved. I LOVE it!

[@MaggiesTwoCents]

A quart-size bag is what the TSA requires passengers to pack their carry-on toiletries or liquids in when flying. The approximate dimensions of a quart-size bag are 7” x 8”. The dimensions of the Calpak bag are 8” x 4” x 6”! It's traveled with me 10+ times and I've never had issues :)

[@hollicarter3216]

@@MaggiesTwoCents awesome! Since they don’t specify the acceptable width, I was hoping it would be cool…but you never know! 😂.

[@josielancaster7095]

Cool thanks

[@alisonmcwonderland7397]

The Cadence capsules are great...I wanted to get some to take toiletries to work...for those days when I'm running late...I dip into the ladies room & finish up my morning routine there... BUT... They are way too expensive. They're on sale right now, 25% off...which STILL comes to about $10/capsule. Only for the rich travelers, I guess. 😪

[@MaggiesTwoCents]

It’s an investment for the long term and to eliminate the use of lots of plastic bottles. It also allows you to use your favorite products on the road rather than just grabbing whatever is available in travel bottles at the store. I know I’ve spent more than $10 on every category of travel product between work trips and fun trips, so they were definitely worth it to me. You just have to figure out what’s worth it to you!

[@MaggiesTwoCents]

Great question! They do occasionally run sales, but I don’t usually get a heads up of when that would be, unfortunately. I did some digging and they may have a 40% off sale on Black Friday, but I’m not sure which products are included! Keep your eyes peeled!

Pls share the website you said you get free samples to review!! That sounds so great

@@MaggiesTwoCents I agree. But for my longer trips I was thinking about the large but afraid it will be too heavy. I don’t have a store near me so can’t get a good feel for the size. I even stopped someone in the airport to ask them about their carryon. It was the bigger carryon. Ha!
