Buying in bulk for welcome bags

TShavonne, on July 21, 2016 at 11:42 AM Posted in Planning 0 7

I'm doing welcome bags for our guests (about 30) when they arrive at the resort. With the wedding being in Jamaica, I want to include lip balm, sunscreen, & insect repellent, along with Tylenol for hangovers. Where can I go online to find deals on these???

    The bags or the items in the bag? If you are looking for cheap bags, go to Oriental Trading Company. Most the other stuff I would just assume to buy at Walmart or Target though...

    Thanks! I'm referring to the actual items. I actually get the OTC catalogs and I have seen some bags that I like.

    Bags I agree with oriental trading and the items you can get affordable on Amazon, alibaba, or Walmart. Happy planning

    I saw many of these things on Amazon while looking, though if I recall correctly, they weren't that much cheaper than in the store. Is there a way to ship the liquids to Jamaica so you don't end up having to check a whole lot of luggage? Or buy them in stores there if you are arriving early?

    My plan is to hit up Costco for the items to go inside the welcome bags but here lately if there is anything that I can't find I hit up Amazon... just bought FG and RB converse shoes off there!

    ^^I love Holly's idea- my DW is a driveable point so my plan is to pack them in my trunk and call it a day but since you are flying to Jamaica I would decide the best way to get all that there before you fly out!

    @Chrissy4985 - Thank you! Happy planning right back at ya!

    @Holly - I plan on putting them in a separate checked bag. From what I've heard, shipping is expensive and runs the risk of not making it through customs.

    @FutureMrsOdom - I think I will compare prices at Sam's and Amazon, then make a decision. Thanks!
