Since I leave for my trip in about 7 weeks, thought it was time I went through my suitcase and checked out what I would need for my trip.  Ended up buying some more packing cubes - small and slim sizes.  I love those cubes!  I now have large, medium, small, and slim.  Should be set to go!  Anyone else use them and like them?

Yes!  Although I've been traveling for decades!!  I just "discovered" packing cubes recently.  I bought 3 in TJ Maxx for about $15 and they are worth every penny and more.  Hold a lot of items, keep things neat and I put them directly into hotel drawers.  I suggested these to a friend who is going to Europe next month.  I am a big fan.

I LOVE the packing cubes. Started using them about two years ago. Now, when I travel, my clothes stay organized at my destination. It used to be that after I pulled out pants, tops, underwear, nothing was organized. With the cubes, I keep the pants in one, tops in another, etc. And I put the clothes back in the right cube, or in the to be washed cube. I have a cube for makeup, for chargers, for underwear...just about anything I take in the suitcase gets a cube now.

I love packing cubes I have several sets,  I use them weather I go away for a night or a week, they keep everything organized

Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being positive what could go right.

I used packing cubes for my trip to Canada and Alaska and they were great!  Everything was organized and easy to find.  Made finding everything to much easier.

The next time that I hear salt and ice together, it better be in a margarita!

Thought about it for a long time before I bought packing cubes, just wasn't sure about the concept. But after using them several times ... I'M HOOKED!  I've always been a good "packer", but these simple cubes make it so much easier to pack and then find what I need without digging through my luggage. Perfect for a vacation trip or just an overnight stay.

I love them too!  I bought a set for DH.  He gave the, back to me.  I a, a long time traveller and think these are the best.  From the suitcase to the drawer to the suitcase.  Big time saver!  LM

I picked up a set of packing cubes at TJ Maxx and used them for a trip last year.  Everyhing stays so organized.  Each cube is dedicated to a specific type of item.  I love them!!!!
