So how many times have you been on vacation, begun repacking to come home, then realize that all of the newly purchased knick-knacks have managed to overflow your suitcase? One of the niftiest inventions for the professional traveler is something that’s been on the market for years: vacuum storage bags. Basically, pack up a few of these (along with accompanying air compressor) in your suitcase. Then thank yourself when you’re repacking, able to easily compress your contents into half the space they originally took up! Another great trick: put all of your dirty clothes into one vacuum bag so that the rest won’t become contaminated. A few sites that sell these bags are listed below.

i don’t find these useful because my luggage is always at the weight limit anyway! maybe if i were driving… or had bags full of some kind of bulky, but light, substance…
