OOT bags?

TashaK24 · January 2011

Are you guys doing OOT bags? If so, what do you plan on putting in them? Pictures?

kaesha · January 2011

I only have a super crappy picture...

in ours we put:

1 Hawaiian Mug (Hilo Hatties) p/p
1 bag Maui onion chips p/p
welcome letter
Maui activity brochure
1 bottled water p/p
1 bottle Kona Brewing Company Beer p/p
1 pineapple (I thought it looked weird, but people loved them)
Maui coffee
3 Hawaiian Host goodies p/p
Hershey's Chocolate MacNuts (a handful)
1 cd of Hawaiian music
Resuable Hibiscus Tote

I'm not 100% sure yet, but probably very similar to kaesha's idea. Probably going to go with a jute bag. Planning to stock up on a whole bunch of goodies from Costco. Might throw in a Waialua soda too ('cause I love them so!).

Our wedding brochure

I had koozies made

I also make hawaii/beach themed coloring books for my niece and nephew.

I had pens made with our names, date, and website.

MOB and FOB T-shirts for my parents.

will also probably pick up some goodies for the plane ride a week or so before we leave.

McBeags - your brochures are cute....... and I love the hawaiian coloring book idea!!

Oooh, love the coloring book idea. I'd like to do that, too, for the kiddies.

In addition to what the ladies posted above, we are also including a couple packs of SPF30 sunscreen wipes and bug wipes in each bag, along with 2 packets of Advil. Gotta love Amazon :-)

I haven't quite figured out what 'bag' to use though! cheaptotes has some reasonable ones, and we also like the hibiscus bags...it's always these ridiculous decisions that I get hung up on!

Our OOT bags and contents are listed with some pics under Welcome Bags in my bio. I'm really glad we did these even though they were kindof a pain. Our guests all seemed really surprised to get them, and they commented to me during the trip about how much they appreciated what we gave them. Plus, I saw some using the tote bags for beach bags.

It's also in our bio. I am really bummed that we didn't take a picture of our process or the completed pile of OOT Bags. So, when we went back to Costco I took pictures of what we bought with their prices, hope it helps.

**For those that arrived late at night, we also put milk, water and individual variety cereals in their rooms.**

Bag: reusable shopping tote from Amazon. .
