Hey guys, I just wanted to share my travel size finds.
I went to Target today and they had a ton of great travel sized stuff for .97 each. I got Purell, Coppertone sunblock 30, Pantene shampoo and conditioner, Huggies wipes, Q-tips, All liquid detergent (it claims to be enough for 2 loads), toothpaste, lotion, and a ton more I can't remember right now.

We used the travel size All liquid detergent on our trip in Aug and it did last for two loads. I have bought some more for our trip in two weeks.

I found the travel sized " Lysol Spray To Go " at Walmart (I watch too much Dateline ). LYSOL®: Solutions Finder (scroll to the bottom).

I swear by the mini cans of Lysol. I carried a can with me all over Disney (and still do around school and shopping) mostly to spray down toilet seats. One less thing to sweat, you know?

travel sizes

The only place I saw the mini All two load bottles were at Target. I was really disappointed with our Walmart's sample section. These will definitely be used since I don't like powder laundry detergent.

I also found small tubes of sunblock that are perfect for the backpack!

Thank you for the links! I agree that Target has a great selection for Sample Size items. I just stocked up on my essentials. I shop around also and use CVS, Rite Aid, Wal-Mart and even local discount supermarkets.

Ok, I just spent a small fortune on sample sizes as I too am addicted to sample/travel size stuff! So glad I am not alone! My hubby was pleased as he travels for business and so I ordered extra for him and for our 5th wheel trailer, not to mention the upcoming vacation to DW!
Minimus was a great site and had the best selection I have seen as of yet.
Thank you for sharing!

P.S. For those of you who are finicky about hair products,lotions, etc. check out Aveda's salon products. I am a long time user of their products and I wouldn't think of not bringing my favorite hair products and so I am pleased they carry the sample sizes too!

All of this talk about samples makes me wonder

It has been a while (6 years) since we went to WDW. We are staying at the Movie resort...what will they provide? Soap? Shampoo? Nothing? Thanks

The resorts I have stayed at have facial soap, body soap, shampoo/conditioner mix, hand lotion, & shower caps all wrapped up in Mickey paper. I recall the mousekeeping doing a great job in keeping us in full supply!

Talking Thanks

I wondered if because we are staying at the cheaper resort they would still provide what we might need. I am just trying to do without unneccesary items. I know I am going to ship a box down (done this before-full of diapers and bottles) ..this time it will be water and snacks. Thanks again for sharing.

If anything, call the resort and ask them. I can't imagine only a handful of resorts distributing the toiletries and not others. I would hate to be wrong and you show up with no shampoo/soap! LOL. Have a great trip!

In my closet, I have a little drawer where I put travel size items I come across. Usually, they are from sales or clearances, or when a trial size item is packaged with a full-size item. At the end of our stays, I also bring home the little bottles of lotion and such, from whichever hotel we are staying. This way I always have what we need when we travel.

Thanks for the links! I just signed up for several free samples from Walmart and Dove. I've been on the Minimus site before and it is really cool!
