Do I need 2 goodies bags or 1 per room?

Hello,

 

Just like the title asks, do I need one per room or two? How much do you guys think is average to spend per bag? I have so many cute ideas but I don't want to get carried away!

1 per room if it's a couple/family. 2 per room if it's two singles rooming together. Just spend whatever is within your budget. Everyone was different. We probably spent $20-$25 per bag and had 24 bags.

I am planning on one per room... depending on the "singles" I'll add another for that room or just split up the contents. They end up around $25 per piece for us.

Really? I always thought it was 1 per person but I guess how expensive everything would be. This is a great question, and I'm definitely interested in seeing what everyone else says!

We are doing 1 per couple and obviously the singles get 1 each

I'm going with the rest on this ... 1 per room... and honestly don't ask me how much I spent ... I think I spent too much ... more than the 25 per bag I know that... Now I am cramming everything in the bags I bought.. but I only need 6 bags.

I will do one per room or per single also.

Well... you could just spend less on the items and buy one for each... l bought beach bags from LL Bean- which I figured the guys didn't really need, but put 2 can coolers, snacks, 2 chapstick, but one playing cards, soduku, etc. Chances are, they won't all be excited about the exact same thing. I do have a couple of rooms with 2 girlfriends and I will be making them their own bags- just less in them bc it's for one!!

I did one bag for couples and one bag for each single. For items like cups I put two in the couples bags. I spent around $30 per bag. But you can spend whatever you want.

I did one bag per couple & 1 bag for each single person. Just like Danielle, for the travel mugs, I did one per person.

I think the cost of the bags depends on how many guests you have & what you can afford. Definitely buy things in bulk where you can & that should keep your overall costs down a bit.
