Useful Items Travelers Seldom Pack

Power strips come in useful when sharing limited outlets at an airport. Travelers are less likely to leave an electronic item behind at their hotel after checking out if all of their electronics are plugged in the same outlet.

Bandannas can come in handy as hand towels, lens cleaner, eye masks, hair ties, headbands, scarves, cooling devices when dampened, and can even be made into a sling for a sprained arm.

Duct tape can do everything from bandaging up an exploded bag to removing lint from clothing. It can patch tears in shoes, and clothing, baby proof hotel rooms by covering outlets and securing drawers shut, and hold together worn guidebooks when the spine gives out.

Travel mugs are great to transport sunglasses or delicate souvenirs. They are ecofriendly and can serve as good decoys when leaving values in your room.

Moist towelettes not only sanitize hands and kill germs on tray tables, doorknobs, tabletops and other public places, they can also serve as refreshing face cloths after a day spent traveling. The alcohol in many wet wipes can help remove ink stains.

Silicone Transportation Security Administration (TSA) mini travel bottles are great because they are squishy (which makes them great when trying to empty out expensive moisturizer, sunscreen and/or hair product), transparent, and easy to clean.

Safety pins can serve as multifunctional travel tools. They can be used to clasp zippers on a day pack together to deter thieves, use in place of a missing button, zipper pull, or mend other clothing problems. Safety pins can prevent static cling in a dress or skirt by slipping the safety pin into the seam of a slip.

Tote bags can save money because many stores abroad charge extra for single use plastic bags and many stores in America offer discounts to customers who use their own tote bags to store their purchases. They are also handy to store dirty laundry inside of a suitcase to preserve the freshness of any clean clothes that are left.
