Top five uses for Ziploc® bags when traveling

There are so many uses for them!! You can put your underwear in them so if the TSA goes through your bag they're not touching your delicates or if you're tight on space, roll up the bag and place it in your shoes. Ziploc (or zipper type bags), can also be used like a vacuum bag for things you don't mind getting a little wrinkled. Put the item (scarf, gloves, socks, t-shirts, etc.) in the bag & zipper it almost closed. Then start rolling it up from the bottom to get the air out then finish zipping closed & unroll it to lay it flat in your suitcase. (They make really large ones that are great for dirty clothes.) They're a great space saver!

This may make me horrible, but I leave my used underwear outside of ziplocs. (A slightly passive aggressive move.) I've only once had my luggage hand searched. I was in the UK. They have gloves.
