Going to Seattle for thanksgiving. It’s rainy and cold. Need suggestions for a jacket or coat that is not terribly expensive.
Hi Phyllis, these are the most popular jackets according to our readers: https://www.travelfashiongirl.com/waterproof-jackets-womens/

Have a fabulous time and happy thanksgiving!
I’m in Canada, when I click on pricing for that beautiful scarf, it’s coming up @106$ cad – seriously. Same for those fab packing cubes .. twice the price +. I would love to purchase some of these fab travel accessories, but just can’t justify paying double ++
Hi Elaine, unfortunately the listing on the Amazon Canada website for the Compass Rose Packing Cubes is a reseller and we can’t do anything to stop them. They they don’t even stock the product. They order it from the Amazon USA website when someone places an order with them. It’s incredibly frustrating Please do not order anything from them. It’s horrible how they mark up the prices. ?
Amazing list! The health tracker is so useful ?
Thanks Julia!
So many great gifts, would love to try the packing cubes,
Thanks Cheryl!
Washable luggage cover is brilliant, especially coming from someone who has had their ubiquitous black suitcase taken (and not returned) for days!
ouch 🙁 that’s horrible
The Travelon crossbody is my go-to travel bag! I have it in gray. This one is more stylish and gives me piece of mind while traveling.
Thanks for all the great information and tips you share!
Thanks Karen 🙂
Such great gift ideas and super useful. I’m hoping my fur babies get their mama some of those striped compression socks!
haha, they’re great!
Thank you for the tips! I really have no clue on what to give my mom this year 😛

Happy to help 🙂
All great ideas – a few of my personal favorites from trial/error and researching different brands – Sherpani theft-proof crossbody, Vlandro jewelry box-AWESOME, Ellis James quilted travel jewelry case, Aicok fabric steamer, co2CREA Universal Hard Shell travel storage case for electronics, RandomOrder Ruggedized Backup 9000 mAH battery pack, Baglane packing cubes, Samsonite underseat large carry-on, Nikibiki leggings, Birkenstock – all of the above I found on Amazon. I also sell a line of snap jewelry I find to be super convenient when traveling.
Awesome round up! Thanks Loxie 🙂
