Re: when you go on Vacation

i usually check a few days-a week before to make sure the clothes we need are clean (b/c we dont have a W&D and have to drop it off at the laundromat)... but, as much as i try to do it in advance, we always end up packing at the last minute Chat Icon

About one to two days before hand although we'll start setting stuff out as early as a week before we leave.

I have everything together the weekend before (shopping for things like sun tan lotion etc) but I don't physically put it into the bag until the night before so it doesn't get so wrinkled

1-2 weeks before. Like you we would have to go to the laundromat. Or we might have to buy something prior.

The night before. I'm a procrastinator. I didn't pack for our HM until a few hours before we were supposed to leave.

I start DAYS in advance with stuff I won't need till the trip (I have tons of travel size toiletries, for example) but I am always scrambling for something at the last minute. I am just disorganized like that.
