Another TSA-friendly travel bag.
Posted by Donna Freedman on Dec 2, 2011 | 95 commentsGoing somewhere for the holidays? This week’s giveaway will go with you.
Previous incarnations of the TSA-friendly travel bag have been quite popular so I decided to put one up again. This one-quart Ziploc bag includes:
- A 1-ounce bottle of the Philosophy brand’s “Purity” facial cleanser
- A 0.4-ounce tube of Philosophy’s “Miracle Worker” anti-aging moisturizer
- A 2-ounce bottle of Essence of Beauty’s citrus-coconut shower gel
- “Sugared citrus” shampoo, conditioner and lotion from the San Francisco Soap Company
- Sample sizes of Aveeno “Living Color” shampoo and conditioner, in case you use up all the sugared-citrus suds
- A sample packet of CVS sunscreen, SPF 50
- A 0.75-ounce tube of Colgate toothpaste
- A 0.4-ounce bottle of antibacterial hand sanitizer gel
- A disposable razor, in case you’re going somewhere warm and decide to shave your legs
It’s surprising how much “travel-sized” items can cost. More than surprising: infuriating. That 0.75-ounce tube of toothpaste costs $1.49, whereas I can get a 6-ounce tube free after coupons and rebates. But you can’t take a bigger tube in your carry-on.

It is surprising the big price of little items. Single-serve, on-the-go, you name it…we pay for convenience.
Of course I subscribe via email to both this and your daughter’s “I Pick Up Pennies.”

And those travel sizes are REALLY expensive if you forget you need them until you get to the airport–Save me from that fate!

This sounds like a good idea – I too am frustrated that the little travel sizes are soo expensive!
I REALLY enjoy your Blog!
Enter me in the drawing for the travel bag. During December my area health food store has vendors do a sample day. I try to get their samples in this free give away to use for traveling during the year. It helps with the budget.
