Goodie Bags

So a quick background, my husband and I are going on a cruise April 2017 with a lot of his former military friends. It's a reunion for them.

Most of them are new cruisers so I thought I would make a goodie bag. We are also their travel agents.

Here is what I have so far, any other suggestions? I'm trying to put everything inside of the tumbler cups. Thanks in advanced!

A tumbler cup.

A lanyard.

Ship map.

Small pack of rolaids. Lots of yummy food can make a tummy a little unhappy. Lol

How about a luggage tag (not a Carnival one - but one where they can put their name and address on in case something happens to their luggage, they can be contacted).

Gum

Some handy wipes

a map of the buffet layout (so they know where all of the stuff is - deli, pizza, ice cream, guys, blue iguana, etc)

Five dice in a tumbler cup makes for a great game of liars dice! Don't forget cards, and hand sanitizer!

Cant think of anything else but nice that you are doing this.

• individually wrapped Germ-X alcohol hand wipes
  
• travel-size sunscreen (tubes of cream or cans of spray are both available in tiny sizes)
  

ETA: check the travel-size section of your local drugstore for more ideas. ;)

E(again)t(also)A: a small portion of nautical-themed candy (like gummy sharks, etc.)

A quarter for the casino

• a travel-size bottle opener/corkscrew
  

A quarter for the casino

That's a fun one! I like that.:) Maybe have a tiny printed out note attached to the quarter explaining the purpose of it and a wish for good luck.

Travel size Advil packets for all of those hang overs that will incur. :D

Go to the Dollar store and browse around. I'm sure you'll see a bunch of fun but useless items - lol

Or ginger candies.

WalMart has a travel section with lots of trial size tubes of hand cream, liquid germ soap, toothpaste, etc. By the time you're done, you're going to need GIGANTIC tumblers filled with goodies. Great idea you have here.

Travel size Aloe--A couple of plastic clothes pins to hang wet swim suits on the shower line--A bar coupon-I believe you can still buy those

Your ideas are great!! Thank you! :-)

Travel size amount of duct tape, such as an individual colour for each cup from these multi-packs:

Before I contribute any ideas..... how many people/goodie cups are we talking about? I could probably come up with an idea or two.......but wouldn't want to suggest something that would make it cost prohibitive (buying for 10 is a lot less than buying for 50....):)

There is probably about 12-15 total not counting myself and my husband of course.

Foam ear plugs - we use them everywhere - even when the music is too loud. You can still hear it, but at a level that's comfortable.

Shout Wipes

(oops on that first picture)

We are doing a family cruise in February. I have started a similar idea for Christmas presents. so far I have lanyards, luggage tag holders, magnetic door sign and Carnival gift cards. I like some other suggestions and may add more to my goodie bag

• individually wrapped Germ-X alcohol hand wipes
  
• travel-size sunscreen (tubes of cream or cans of spray are both available in tiny sizes)

ShakyBeef, you can come on over to KY in October and help me. I buy for 35 Christmas stockings for my husbands side of the family. I run out of ideas every year and could use the help. Then I think he would be obligated to send us on a cruise for all our hard work! :D

To the OP, try to find some Avon books. They always have some clearance items for 1 or 2 dollars.

Thank you all again. I love all the ideas. I may need an actual bag with the tumbler!! Haha.

A Highlighter. Comes in very handy when marking off things that you want to do.

Thanks!:) I love this kind of thing. I find myself lingering over the travel size section of various stores and roaming all through the dollar store getting ideas (like Viv0828 said) all the time. Stocking-stuffing is the best part of Christmas shopping for me.:p:o
