Step 4Finish your Luggage.
5. Repeat the steps with the remainder of your clothes.
6. Pack your luggage bag with your new 'organizers' and don't open it again until you get there.
You'll find that this method, while probably not as good as an actual space saver bag, will in fact, reduce the volume of your clothes, if not by half, then just enough to get the zipper pulled around and your luggage bag shut.
When you get to your final destination, or if you have to open the bags again. You'll notice that the 'organizer' bags have lost their 'prune' look, but won't plump up to nearly the same size as before. So you can play with it for a little bit.
I went to the Philippines over Valentines this year. My mother originally packed my bags, without asking. She'd never even heard of this trick. And she needed three bags to pack it in. I did the garbage bag trick, and even then I had to do the sit on it and pray, and fit all my clothes into just -one- larger luggage bag. Her things went from four bags, down to 1 and a half, with enough room left over to pack gifts for our relatives in the Philippines.
Hey, with the new within North America luggage piece restrictions, everyone needs all the help they can get.
