A tip I haven't seen before

[Shmu]

Just went this past Sept. and already planning next year. It's therapy.
I just found neat toothbrush holders at our dollar store. They have suction cups on the back. I bought 4. This way we can all stick them to the mirror and they won't be on the counter. Keep sharing. I am loving everybody's ideas. Let's me know I'm not alone in being extreme.

Men's boxer briefs. keep the chafing down. Saves you on pj bottoms to pack. There are underwear outlets all over Orlando, whats not to like!

Best thing in the world for preventing Chafing is those spandex workout liners that you can get at stores like Sports Challet. They are usually seemless and will protect your inner thigh. Other than that Desitine and baby Powder before you even go into the theme parks is the other solution.

Actually, for chafing, I like either body glide or Monistat chafing gel (which I actually liked better than body glide - since it's a gel, the texture is better). I used the monistate gel on my inner thighs before going to Typhoon Lagoon (wet thighs make chafing worse!) and it worked like a charm.

I'd try one of these, rather than things like men's boxer briefs or bike shorts - why add another layer on a hot day??

They had disinfecting wipes in a travel sized pack at Target for $1!

I bring Dawn wipes for dishes. They work GREAT!!

They sell travel sized Downey wrinkle release in the laundry aisle at Target also!

Where specifically do you find the Dawn wipes? I live in Southeastern Virginia and can not find them anywhere, in any store! I've asked at Wal-Mart and Target and just look at me like I'm nuts. (For the record I am, but they don't know that!)

I second that! I live in NE KS (Kansas City area). My MIL got these for me for Xmas one year (yeah, Dawn wipes for Xmas...long story) and I LOVED them! Every year she tries to hunt up more for me and can't find them. They must not make them anymore!

I pretty much take everything that has been mentioned. We stayed @ POR back in May and we loved how the sink area had the privacy curtain. So, we went this past Sept. my MIL came up with the idea to bring our curtain rod and she bought a cheap curtain or it might of been a sheet and we hung in up between the sink area and the bedroom at POP and it worked great. we had that privacy of getting dressed with more room in front of the sinks. i usually bring a candle to burn in the room but i think i will do the plug ins next time. we drive down so we bring a lot of stuff for our room. extension cords, plug up ice chest, cups for our toothbrushes, extra washcloths, nightlights, shoeorganizer, laundry stuff, extra garbage bags, spray, we even bring pictures of us at WDW to put out. It's crazy. we make it as homey as can be.

I live in the Tidewater-Hampton roads area and have bought them at Walmart by the registers.

....all the superGERMS that all these GERMaphobes are creating....

Yay! Someone that thinks like I do!

I always travel with a soft thin "throw" size blanket, or a soft baby blanket. I fold it in half and place it over my shoulders between me and the sheets/blanket. I can't fall asleep without a blanket pulled up past my neck and this way it's something of MINE and not hotel bedding with an unknown germ factor. Gives me great peace of mine, and also warmth because my husband has to run the AC full blast.

In addition to giving free ice water (even cups of ice too) they will give you a cup of hot water. So instead of buying a cup of tea for 2 bucks, bring your own tea bags...you could even make your own iced tea too if you wanted.
And tea bags don't take up to much room...
