Travel Buyables: Comfy Flights!
9:50 AM
So, while going through my stylefeed, I came across some products that are not only helpful while traveling, but money-saving, too! Some are even green, environmentally friendly. After all, budgets are sexy, and so is mother earth. Let's go on a trip, shall we?
On the Plane:
Sears has got this great bamboo (green alert!) blanket and eye mask set. Not so cheap, though, at $40. However, you can use the airplane blanket (if you can GET one), and get this neat eye mask from Perpetual Kid, no price listed, picture on the left.
In Your Hotel:
You made if off the flight and are settling into your hotel room, yummy. Definite must-haves include paper-thin, single use, solid sheets of shampoo, shaving cream, and laundry soap! One dissolving sheet is one use, and each comes in a pack of 30 sheets, for $6!
Now that you're showered, shaved, and laundered- get dressed for a day of exploring! But, wait- deodorant stains, ouch. Use this handy dandy tool for removing them, just $13. Last, not only does it meet TSA guidelines, but this solid block of lotion is great- it won't spill or leak. I actually never realized that solid lotion would be good, but my hands and face get so dry in the cold air craft air. And, now that I think about it- I DID get a huge family-size bottle of Johnson&Johnson's baby lotion thrown out of my luggage! Ugh, where were you when I needed you, solid lotion!!!??? :(
Out and About:
This is pretty neat. Instead of spending money on snacks and breakfasts, this bag (to the left) contains a bunch of breakfast bars, mini boxes of cereal, raisins, and granola snacks- currently on sale for $20. That's even great for a really long flight! A similar and probably more useful pack, by Minimus, includes a bunch of meds perfect for anybody away from home and not wanting to spend a bunch of money on pricey meds, also on sale for $20. It includes Alka-Seltzer, Imodium, DayQuil, Pepto-Bismol, Band-Aids, Benadryl, Tylenol, NyQuil, Simply Sleep pills, Blistex, Bayer and some sting relief ointment. As somebody who is always fighting with sinuses, a weak stomach, and headaches- this is brilliant!
