little things I should pack, but might forget

[Mom2Evie]

Help me create my list of those "extras" I forget to pack for vacation sometimes. I'll remember the basic clothing items, even over packing some things.

Disney packet w/MNSSHP tickets!!
postcard stamps
ponchos
battery charger
costumes

 

[Tink3Belle]

A bag to put the dirty laundry in (especially if its hot out).

 

[minnieandme]

moleskin
small first aid kit
pepto bismol
nail clippers
neck cooler

 

[estherhead]

Addresses on labels for your postcards.
Headache/Tummyache/Cold medicine.

Those are the two things I routinely forget and then am sad.

sunscreen; a hat; maybe some liquid detergent to wash something in the sink, if necessary (although, I've found that the shampoo in the rooms works wonders, too, for spot treatment); Tide laundry pen (I always drop food on my white shirts...ok, all my shirts); sunglasses . Good luck..maybe I'll see you there--we're there 9/6-16.

clothes pins to hang your suits to dry in the shower

 

[Jrabbit910]

asprin, vitamins, hand sanitizer & if traveling w/ the kids I think buying those neon thingy are great for the night time parades!

flashlights
nightlight

 

[wrighter]

A power strip. Between our cell phones, laptop, camera dock, etc, the outlets go fast. This way we can keep our electronics all in one place.

 

[grumpy.uncle]

Medications if you take them, an extra pair of good comfy walking shoes in case your first pair starts to give you blisters, continuous-spray sunscreen, sunglasses, flip-flops or slip-ons to wear out to your resort pool, swimsuit, aloe vera gel in case you do get a sunburn, addresses for sending postcards, quarters for the toll booths on the freeway if driving from the airport, a wad of ones and fives for tipping, a good paperback to read by your pool. I know I'm forgetting something, but that's a start.

 

[Perditamarie]

Memory cards, batteries, chapstick, info for ADRs, OTC meds for kids, Advil

 

[Gerweniel]

I always pack $40.00 in singles for tips along the way and for the Mousekeeper and $10.00 in quarters for the laundry.

Have a WONDERFUL trip!

 

[2manygirls]

walkie talkies, autograph pen & book, glow sticks, quarters & shinny pennies for pressed pennies(fit well in an m&m's tube) these are a few I have found that I have saved.

 

[mjf2wdw]

You might want to pack some dollar store ponchos in case of rain. Buying them at Disney during a rainstorm can be costly

 

[mcco5543]

I second the hand sanitzer, a nightlight perhaps to see in the middle of the night without turning on the light ..those rooms are dark at night
