Separate bag needed?

[ThunderMTexpert]

Two suitcases being brought: One for me, one for DH, should a small, extra, empty one be tagged along, too for souveniers? Did I even spell that right? My head is spinning, lost in the Dis Magic!! Or is it something we'll regret having to drag along when we leave? I'm talking, small suitcase, but larger than the Disney bags the gifts come in, or course!! Hmmmmmmm

I would bring an extra checked suitcase....we filled our extra one with water bottles and snacks..then filled it up with gifts

Hi Thunder:
I am originally from Gretna LA but now in Chicago. What is it about Louisianians that get so lost in the Magic?? Anywho, mayne consider a duffle bag that would pack easily. So for teh trip home use teh suitcase for breakables (mugs, etc) and the duffle for clothes...
Probably easier to pack and lighter re: weight limits if flying...

Another option is to bring a duffle bag or similar that folds flat. I have a couple of duffle bags that fold flat so when I am on vacation, I pack it in my suitcase. Since it folds flat, it doesn't take up any room. Then when I am going home, I fill it with the heavier things from my suitcase including non-breakable souvenirs and check it as my second bag. The reason I put the heavier things in it (just make sure that it is sturdy) is so that I can balance the weight of my checked bags and keep my suitcase under 50 lbs.

Yes I would definately suggest another suitcase.
The first time I went to on vacation without an extra suitcase was to NYC back in March and boy was I mad at myself for not bring one.
Took me a good hr and half to get everything packed back up to leave.
