We usually only receive one small box (a one load size) of detergent, sometimes 2. I am pretty sure you get charged if you ask for more before your T&T day. We bring Purex all in one laundry sheets....detergent and fabric softener all in one sheet. They are great for travel....sadly, purex discontinued making these, so we stocked up when we heard about that. We also bring those color catchers, too. You could probably pack a small box of detergent and some fabric softener sheets. Is there such a thing in grocery stores? I only use liquid for my home washer. Or you can measure out powdered detergent into small sandwich sized zip lock bags and pack them that way.
To add to the "list", we always bring large sandwich bags and twisties so we can bring our sandwiches down to the pool.
We also bring those collapsible type coolers....the kind you can get for free sometimes when you buy a case of Coors Light. They fit great into a suitcase and then we fill them with ice from the resort before heading out to Publix or Winn Dixie. When our room is ready, we shlep our suitcases up to the room (we are too cheap for the multiple tips you have to hand out to the valet and the bell hops), quickly empty them and then head back to the car to fill our rollie suitcases with our food and drink, and shlep back up to the room. It is a chore at the Boardwalk, but BLT or Kidani is a breeze (more than one elevator).
