CANADIAN OOT BAG info...where to shop!

[amjohnson]

I should have mentioned that a have a lot of Wedding Survival Kit and Snack Pack cards left over that I would like to sell, would rather sell locally as it isn't worth paying for shipping.

PM me if you are interested.

Here is what they look like. We also did pre travel passports, a team effort between my fiance and I. I hope our guests appreciate them.

The photo below is one of my BM's bags. I gave them each two pashminas, a red one to go with their dresses and a white/cream one. The socks have little grips on them as the resort rooms are supposed to get cold at night and slippery.

@Amjohnson,

 

Oui, je parle francais. Parlez-vous francais? I will definitely check out your DIY passport pre travel brochure thread. Thanks for sharing!!

Hey Ladies, I was just at Zellers last night and found Pepto Bismol tablets for 20% off. I picked up a few boxes of 36 I believe, that have 6 packages of 6 tablets wrapped in plastic...figured I'd just give each person a pack of 6! The sale ends today though, so if you are interested, hurry in before closing time!

I lied...they're boxes of 48. So 8 packages of 6 tablets. Even better! And I think it was between $5-7 for the box!

Hey Ladies, has anyone found individual packages of bug-repellent wipes in Canada, or are these an American product? I definitely want to include these in my OOT bags as I have heard that mosquitoes can be bad in the Mayan Riviera in May! Thanks and Merry Christmas!

Sorry I personally haven't seen any wipes before but I have seen small travel sized OFF! Bug Repellant spray but those run for around +$2 at Walmart. They are found in the travel toiletry section year round. Or in the summer then they'd also be where the other bug repellant stuff are.

 

Maybe you can check online drugstores like Well.ca?  I think they do free shipping...

Thanks for the advice lavenderlux. I have not seen the travel sized ones at my local walmart yet, but maybe they only carry it in the spring/summer, I will definitely keep an eye out for them. I will also check out well.ca, I have never heard of that

Advil alert!  I saw the Advil tubes while I was in line at the check-out today at London Drugs. A 2 pack was on sale for $2.99.  (I think it was $2.99 ... there's a slight chance I'm remembering wrong and they could have been $1.99 ... all I remember is that I thought they were a pretty good deal!)

I know that they typically have them at our Dollaramas out here for $2 a tube...those and Tylenol...

Yeah they're at our Dollaramas out here for $2 as well, but they're single packs. London Drugs had packs of two for $2.99, so slightly cheaper.
