What to put in emergency kits

I have a list started, but was wondering if anyone had any other ideas I may have missed:

sewing kit w/scissors
safety pins
bobby pins
clear nail polish
extra pantyhose, nylons, thigh highs
comb/brush
hair spray
mints
deodorant
aspirin, etc
small kleenex
extra film
lint roller
make-up
static guard
nail clippers
nail file/emery board
toothbrush/toothpaste
q-tips
black socks
instant spot/stain remover
white chalk
antacid
bandaids

Any other ideas? Also, what is everyone putting these things in, ideas for that too would be great !!

OK, this is probably really dumb, but what do you need the black socks for? Or is it for FH?

zac1228 - exactly for fh and the gm's just in case. You never know, some guys are a bit color blind and may have on blue socks with a black tux.. lol
Better safe than sorry, and if not used fh has a few extra pair of socks

Re: What to put in emergency kits

I think the only emergency kit things that I used on the wedding day were:

mints
eye drops (wetting drops for contacts)
Clean & Clear Oil absorbing sheets (these nifty little things absorb the oil on your skin without removing your make-up, so you have a completely shine-free look in all your photos).
They are a wedding day MUST HAVE!
