what will i forget to pack?
help me with my packing list, please?
what do you ALWAYS forget to pack? or what is the one thing i'm likely to forget?
i think i have the basics but i know i always get to my vacation destinations and go "aw man, i don't have _______". problem is, that something always changes.
by this time tomorrow, i'll be sipping a margarita on the beach in mexico!
Re: what will i forget to pack?
I'm so jealous!! That will be so much fun!
When we went to Colorado I forgot to pack Acquaphor - the air is so dry and my lips were just chapped and my fingers were cracked and bleeding. Boo.
I also usually forget to pack nail clippers, hair pins, face wipes to get make up off and I always forget shaving cream. Oops. We usually end up at the nearest drugstore for these.
Toothbrush and hair brush. I pack most often to go to the lake and I keep a toothbrush and brush up there so when I go somewhere else, I ALWAYS forget to pack them.
Oh and nail file and clippers.
Feminine products. If I don't need them while i'm packing I forget but with a somewhat irregular cycle I don't want to get caught somewhere without anything!!
Pepto Bismol/Immodium. I have a sensitive tummy so I never like to be without my tummy stuff.
Pajamas. One time I forgot.
Q-Tips. I can't live without them, and not all hotels/resorts/time shares have them available in the toiletry kits.
I'm with Kizdoodle - stomach stuff. I always get something funny when I am on vacay for more than 3-4 days - so some immodium, pepto, gas x.. always comes in handy.
Sunscreen. I never bring enough and always have to buy a $30 (grrrr for resort prices) bottle when I am on vacation.
A bag/pillowcase to put my dirty clothing in.

I always come *thisclose* to forgetting my cell phone charger, since I keep it plugged in until we leave.
Sunscreen is another good one.
Have a great time! There are few things in life better than drinking a margarita on the beach.
margaritas in mexico
Pharmacy - immodium, pepto, advil, benadryl, anti-itch cream
Sunscreen/bug spray (we went last November and there were more bugs than expected at night!)
Extra undies, because you def don't want to run out.
Bag to put all your dirty clothes/swim suits in
Qtips
I always pack close to double the amount of underwear I will need. This is because on a road trip a few years ago we broke down on the way home and were stuck in the middle of nowhere for 4 extra days. I ended up buying granny panties (in a bag) at the local dollar store and they were so ugly and uncomfortable.
I also tend to forget my contact case and solution occasionally.
a beach/pool bag is really nice to have on a vacay
Have tons of fun!
