I recently went to DragonCon in Atlanta and took my huge suitcase so that I could have all the stuff I needed for a five-day weekend getaway. Usually having a huge suitcase means all my stuff gets jumbled up at the bottom of the bag and things are in disarray. Not this time. I have multiple sets of these packing bags, so it was easy. I put all of a single outfit (dress, girdle, slip, hose, bra, jewelry) into one medium bag. Shirts went into the packing folder I have. Kilt and shirt and belt went into another large bag. Costume in another bag. Shoes in a medium bag. Electronics into smaller bags. Then I could put all the bags neatly into my suitcase and it was so much easier when I wanted to get something to wear. Since I was sharing a hotel room with four others, it made it easy to grab a bag (or two) before heading into the bathroom to change. It also made it easier when they inspected my suitcase -- no messed up stuff after they paw through everything to make sure I'm not a terrorist!

Coming home was nice because dirty clothes went into a few bags and the few clean clothes were separate. I use the smallest bags in my purse on a daily basis - one has my oral care stuff (toothbrush, toothpaste, dental floss, gum picks, numbing medication, mouthwash) while another has my back-up batteries and cables to re-charge my iPod/iPhone if I run them down while I'm out during the day.

When the family travels, each kid gets a set of three to put all of their stuff for a weekend into. Then all the bags get tossed into a duffel bag and we can pack clothing and bath kits for five people in two duffel bags. Electronics and pillows still take up more space....

I'm seriously considering buying two more sets so that all five of us will have a complete set to use for travel.
