Welcome Bags

[tinkerlisa]

Ok I like the idea of welcome bags. Had no idea what to put in them. Then i came on here and asked and got great answers!
Anway, I was on another part of the forum, the family one i think. Someone had asked about travel sized stuff for their trip and how to find them. Someone responded about a website. I checked it out and it has cool stuff and you can use in a welcome bag for your wedding! So i don't know if anyone else doing welcome bags knows about it, and i would like to share it with you. They also have free shipping on orders over $20. Here it is:

I bought a lot of our "bear necessities" bag items there, including individual dental floss, headache medicine, sunscreen, hand cream, etc. The service was excellent and the shipping was very fast. I liked that they packed all 20 of an item in a separate sealed bag, so it was very easy for me to keep it all organized until time to separate and package them.

I've also heard good things about that site and will be using it, in addition to the usual Ebay odds and ends I've found. This week's great buy was 50 Mickey and Minnie full size nail files for 6.99! Yay!

MegKate ~ what kind of searchs do you do on ebay? i search for disney and get tens of thousands of results and when i try to narrow it down i don't get much. any tips?

I was wondering the same thing! I would like to put something Disney-ish in my welcome bags and thought of doing a pin for each person but that can get costly!
Unfortunatly, a few people that are coming to my wedding aren't that into Disney. One of my future sisters in law has never been and has no intention of even going to the MK!!! I don't know what she is going to do for dinner that night since I wanted to get ressies for the crystal palace!
She said she is only going for the wedding and thats it!

I also bought Disney emery boards on ebay. I think they were 25 for $6.99 plus shipping. I actually bought some that were Pooh theme and some that were Mickey and Minnie (or maybe just Minnie). I thought these were a great way to bring a little Disney flair to the welcome bags in something that is functional and people could use at home afterwards. I think I searched Disney and then looked under toiletries or something in the breakdown at the left of the screen. Another wonderful inexpensive Disney item for the welcome bags is lip balm -- at one point Avon had several different versions of these -- various princesses, etc. -- and they were 99 cents each. When you do your ebay search, check for "bulk" or "lot" designations in the breakdown on the left. That is often a good way to get a lot of an item at a lower price.

Good luck and have fun with ebay. It is a great resource.
