stuff in your OOT bag

Where did you buy everything? I'm not even certain where to buy the bag itself? Did you get those at a dollar store or order them online?

I'm thinking Costco for the waters and snacks, but does Costco carry the mini advil packets?

Hey there - I just bought small, white gift bags at Michaels and then bought a lot of the snacks, waters, and tissues, etc at Trader Joe's funny enough! They had little individual packs of nuts/dried fruit and their waters are well-priced! And then my mom made tags for them that we attached with Ribbon.

Depends how many you're making. BJs could be your best friend!

I got my stuff at the dollar store and stop and shop for the most part...but I only had 12OOT'ers

ETA I used gable boxes!

I ordered the white bags online - definitely cheaper than buying them in the stores. I also used them for the bridal party gifts. I bought everything at B.J.'s for the bags - including mini waters and mini gatorades. They don't have the advil packets but Target does in the travel section so I just bought them there!

I went to Party City to buy the bags. Costco was good for bottled water, granola bars, trail mix, chips, etc. At the $$ Store I bought a bunch of candy to throw in. By the time I was done, the little bags were packed and people loved them!

We bought almost everything at costco -- I couldn't find mini advil, but they have alkaselzer, which actually has aspirin in it, so that woks for a headache too, which most people know.

A friend took this picture of our OOT bags (well, the had one of the waters and something else already, but it's a good idea of what was in there) -- the bags themselves were our favors and I had extras which is what I used for them so I can't really help on that, but the dollar store has tons of bags, cheap. I heart reusable grocery bags, though.

I bought the bags at AC Moore when they were having a sale (I think they were 3 for $1). I bought water, granola bars, chocolate kisses, bags of pretzels, chips, cookies, etc. at Costco. As far as the small advil/tylenol packs, they have them at Staples. I found they were cheaper than at Target.

Bought the bags at Michael's they were less than $1. Then bought all the snacks at Sam's Club. In each bag I had:

2 bottles of water
Granola bars
Gum
Chocolate
2 bags of chips.

I also made a sheet with the times of the hotel shuttle for the guests.


The guests loved the bags. FYI the bags took up so much room in my car when I went to bring them to the hotel.

I hope this helps.
