owners lockers..

[disneyobessed]

Anyone else use this..? If so what do you store in it and is it beneficial if you only go once a year. Alot of stuff i thought id store expires like sunscreen medicine.. ect. any advice will help if it means packing less!

We're big fans in this family. Most years we go once, occasionally we do 2 trips. Pack less? Oh yeah:

coffee filters
tea bags
band aids
moleskin
antiibiotic ointment
aloe for sunburn (that doesn't expire)
large bottles of everyone's "have to have" shampoo, conditioner, bath gel, hair products
pizza cutter
teflon coated spatula
feminine hygiene products
throat lozenges
Excedrin
scissors
laundry soap
stain remover
Mickey ponchos
water bottles on a lanyard
water mister
extra phone charger
tech kit with mouse, usb connectors, network connector (DH can't travel without the laptop)
flip flops
swimsuit
cover up
hats
paper napkins
baggies
salt/pepper
Benadryl

I know we have a lot more, just can't remember it all. Basically we have everything that isn't in the DVC kitchen that we either had to haul down or kept buying and discarding, everything that I, as a mother, think we need "just in case" for first aid or any type of disaster, and many comfort items that make it feel more like home. Now that our family has a new little one, I'm sure baby wipes and toys will be added. We have WAY cut down on our packing.

Owner's Locker ROCKS!!

You do have to be careful about expiry dates on some stuff. We always buy our sunscreen new every time, but the rest usually has a long time for expiry. We're only once a year people, although 2008 had 2 trips. But, 4 of us are going for 13 days in January and we've got carry on only with room to spare to bring back stuff.

we just packed ours for the first time. NO WAY would it be full, but it WAS! We have a bulky hair dryer, toothbrushes and tooth paste, rain gear (those lovely ponchos), jackets, a pair of jeans, some tshirts we only wear down there, an extra pair of sunglasses, moisturizing lotion, shampoo, conditioner, laundry detergent, bandaids, and just all the little stuff you want but can live without, but you would rather not, and you don't want to have to remember to pack! IT will make packing so much easier next time!

We got our first Owners Locker this past September. One of the great things about OL is that now when we travel to WDW, we do not have to "check" any bags with the airline. All we have is carry-on. We do not have to pay those high fees anymore and we don't have to wait around to those bags. We get off the plane and GO!!

Here is another fun thing to do with your OL.

We love our locker and it is soooo full. We even keep a deflated basketball and pump for our 20 something boys to play when with when we go. I keep extra hangers, popup hampers etc. I would be lost without it.

 

[SSRJen]

We store things like hats, an extra jacket, ponchos, umbrellas, razors...etc. We also have things for the kitchen like tin foil.

We were not sure if Owner's Locker would be for us because we mainly visit once a year (maybe twice if we are super lucky). However, we knew we could try it for free and LOVED IT! We were able to travel with just a carry on. We HATE waiting for luggage in airports. We were able to just walk off the plane and leave both ways.

We wish we had an Owner's Locker everywhere we travel! We never want to check baggage again!

We got our locker in Oct of this year and will have a second locker waiting for us in a couple of weeks, great service from some great folks. It is nice to not have to bring the basics given the cost of checking a bag or two.
