Got travel plans for Memorial Day weekend? This week’s giveaway will make your trip through security a lot more affordable.
These little bags are always hugely popular, and for good reason: Who wants to pay $1.29 for the one-ounce tube of toothpaste that will get you and your carry-on bag through security?
But toothpaste isn’t the only thing in this bag. Here’s what the winner will take on his/her next trip:
A tube of Ciel shampoo that’s “infused with aromatic coconut and apricot”
A tube of Ciel body wash, with “a soothing base of sun-ripened coconut, luxurious cocoa butter and roasted vanilla ban enriched with fresh notes of lush apricot and exfoliating sugar” (not sure whether you should bathe with this or spread it on toast)
A tube of Ciel lotion, which has the same sort of stuff as the body wash
Two Purell sanitizing hand wipes
A one-ounce tube of Colgate MaxFresh toothpaste
An adorable little container of Colgate floss
An even more adorable little (four-count) package of TicTacs (in case of dry mouth on the plane or lots of onions with dinner on the same night you meet someone really cute)
Lip balm with passion fruit and aloe vera
Two packets of antacid tablets (in case you overdo it at the buffet or in the bar)
Two packets of ibuprofen
A teeny-tiny flashlight (always helpful when you’re staying in a strange place)
All of it fits into the requisite one-quart plastic bag, so the TSA folks won’t get grumpy. You won’t be grumpy, either, because you won’t have paid for the toothpaste.

great for those summer getaways
I am flying for the first time in years to see a good friend I have not seen for 40 years. We were in grade school and high school together, college room mates and best women at each others’ weddings. The travel bag would come in handy as I know nothing about flying rules.
