I don’t see a pair of shoes at the store that I don’t check to see if they are cheaper on Amazon (90% of the time they are!) or even food!! (Organic baby/toddler food was a favorite at one time.) And let me tell you, you get REALLY use to “free” 2 day shipping! One day on the cheap has come in handy at times too! We far exceed the Prime fee each year in shipping alone-the movie perk feels like the free item!! :)

No wrinkles, and they take up much less room.
Loved all the comments!

A consideration on #7… While traveling for work a few years ago, I missed a flight because the flight number and time on the itinerary my office compiled for me were wrong. Now, I just forward my plane and hotel reservations to my family and print a copy to take with me. Yeah, it’s more sheets of paper, but there’s no chance that key information will be mis-typed or not updated.

My additional tip for any bedbug scared traveler would be to first Google hotel’s name + ‘bedbugs’ to see any recent reviews that included encounters with bedbugs. Also to lower the possibility of picking any hitch hiker bugs from the plane I would changed the luggage type to seamless and sleek light colored hard shell plastic one.

Less bugs – more fun travel! =^)

Get Tripit mobile app. Better yet, if you are a frequent traveler, pay $45 and upgrade Tripit Pro. When you receive your email confirmations, Tripit will download all of them to the iphone app, and everything is organized in 1 place, by trip. If you have the Tripit Pro, they will send you check-in notifications, flight delays, you can check alternate flights, etc. Tripit is the way to go!!

Not only do you liven their day, but they’ll go out of their way to ensure you have a pleasant stay.
