Travel Toiletries for the Lazy
By BootsnAll | Permalink | 2 comments | September 29th, 2006
In the wake of all the changing TSA rules, companies are trying to adapt their service and produt offerings to comply. From hotels offering free toiletries and airport stores selling zip-top plastic bags to those without (that’s a weird one, since the new rules say your items must fit into one, but not that they have to be in one) that get turned away at security checkpoints.
One such new service is offered by Minimus, where they offer “free required packaging” with orders.
If you’re really busy or just too lazy to pack your own items into a zip-top bag, this might be something to consider. Or, you could try out Nevercheckit.com’s free service where they will confirm what free toiletries are available at your choices of hotel.

[...] At only $360.00 MSRP ($164.95 at LuggageOnline for us poor people) for a 25-incher, these are a relative bargain for lazy people. If that’s you, check out the pre-packaged travel toiletries – but be warned, I don’t think they sell Hugo Boss. [...]

My name is Victor Cox and I am the CEO of Never Check It (www.nevercheckit.com). As a frequent business traveler who has always carried on my bag, I was perplexed on what to do about the new restrictions.
In order to continue to carry on my bag, I have introduced a free service that allows travelers to pre-order toiletries and other banned items before they fly or confirm toiletries at their hotel. This will ensure that travelers will be able to carry-on luggage, which will save valuable time, money, and help alleviate the stress associated with travel.
I am not sure how long the restrictions will last, but for now, I will continue to carry-on my bag and pre-order my toiletries before I fly.
