Care package help....
I have a box half-filled and I need to find something else to put in it before I send it off... right now it has a couple little things I bought in Paris, a couple bags of V-day candy... a few deodorants, a toothbrush.... but there is still room, and my husband denies needing anything (no to socks, boxers, etc.) No books because he doesn't have time to read - same for movies.
Any fun ideas on what I could use to fill the rest of the box?
Re: Care package help....
Does he like any magazines?
My 'nicer item' in my v-day care package while I was gone was a fluffy new towel. The laundry over there was done pretty harshly, so it was nice to have a decent (but inexpensive) towel to add to the rotation. Does he use a bath puff? That's also something that would take up space without being something he needs to lug home at the end of his tour.
Hey I like the idea of a new towel!
He's not really a magazine guy... maybe a travel mag wouldn't be a bad idea though! I wonder if any stores around here have anything for Chinese New Year.... that was my other thought.
J always asks for a loofa on a stick. He has issues with his back breaking out while he's over there and that thing helps tremendously. Like Ojo said, towels are a great thing to send. A new pillow case, pictures, a recordable card, special snacks, magazines, non-aerosol air fresheners and canned fruit are always on the top of my suggestion lists.
