And particularly if you've already spent a fortune on new clothes, beauty treatments and a posh hotel for your next holiday, then this could just be the perfect money-saving trick for you. 3 A couple have shared the packing hack they swear by to save cash on luggage fees Credit: Getty 3 Not only do they pocket extra pounds with this trick, but they're also able to take more clothes on holiday too Credit: Instagram / @first_class_seats 3 So rather than leaving your belongings at home because they don't fit in your bag, why not put them in your neck pillow? Credit: Instagram / @first_class_seats Josh and Amber, a 'creative couple' with a 'passion for travel', have shared their top tip that will save travellers 'a fortune' on So if you're going away for a weekend and are only travelling Posting on social media, Josh and Amber shared the 'genius' way they manage to take more clothes on holiday without having to squeeze them into their suitcase or The content creators demonstrated how they use neck pillows to take at least three extra tops, a pair of trousers and a hat on their trips. Read more Fabulous stories Alongside a clip that was recently shared on Instagram, the couple questioned: 'Tired of breaking the bank on luggage fees? We've discovered a simple yet genius travel hack that's saved us a fortune!' With this 'fly smart' trick, the The duo simply removed the stuffing from inside their neck pillow and added in their belongings. Overjoyed with the simple but effective idea, they explained: 'Remember this Most read in Fabulous 'Your The Instagram clip, which was posted under the username @ Shoppers run to Tesco desperate to nab the 'suitcase of dreams' that's the 'prettiest vintage style case' and 'so cheap' Not only this, but it's also amassed over 14,000 likes and 331 comments. Social media users were impressed with the Holiday packing tips Jemma Solomon, aka The Label Lady has got 5 packing tips to help you get organised for your next holiday. 1. Write a list Think about all the essentials you need to take with you; suncream, medicine, a few games for the kids, beach towels, and write everything in one list, which you can tick off as you add it to your suitcase. Or for complete ease, try Google's AI app - Gemini - which will create a list for you and help you not over pack. 2. Involve your kids Jemma said: 'My girls are getting older, they're 11 and nine, and they enjoy helping to pack. So I send them a list, and say 'this is what you need' and they follow the list. 'And then I give them a rucksack each - and say to them 'you can have whatever you want in there as long as it's not liquid', and they can take that on the plane. And that's their 'home away from home' items.' 3. Try a hack or two She said: "I think they all work, but for different reasons - and you've just got to pick the right one for your trip. "Rolling your clothes is really good to stop your clothes from getting creases. And if you're trying to get a lot of items into your case, it's a space saver. 'Packing cubes are great - for example, I'm going on holiday with my three kids and we're all using the same suitcase for our clothes. "These handy compartments let you separate your clothes, toiletries and tech into designated cubes, maximising luggage space by keeping your items compressed and neatly stacked. "I love taking them abroad with the family and it means my kids can easily take charge of their own items once we've arrived." 4. Decant beauty products Do you really need to take full-size bottles of shampoo and conditioner with you? The beauty industry has evolved so much, you can now buy shampoo bars or sheets - which are much lighter and smaller. Or, if you'll be popping to the shops when you're abroad, consider buying some items when you arrive. 5. Get organised before you come home Jemma said: 'When you repack on holiday [before coming home], the trick is to separate clean from dirty clothes. 'Also pack it in some form of order - so lights, darks, colours for items that need washing, or if you wash your clothes by person in the household, piles for each person. "Then you can put it straight into the washing machine. Do it straight away, don't leave it." One person said: 'Well played.' Another added: 'Great idea!!!' Smart packing!

Donal Skehan 'cursed again' days after Bloom kitchen chaos
It seems the days of oven nightmares aren't over for Donal Skehan just yet. The TV chef was in the middle of a cookery demonstration at Bord Bia Bloom last weekend when a glass oven door broke into pieces in his hand. Thankfully, nobody was hurt by the flying shards, and the accident provided the chef with plenty of material for the rest of the demonstration, which was thoroughly enjoyed by the amused audience. It seems the days of oven nightmares aren't over for Donal Skehan just yet. Pic: Michael Chester However, his unlucky streak continued this week, with the star experiencing yet another oven explosion, this time at home. Taking to Instagram on Friday, Donal detailed a mishap that occurred while he was firing pottery in his kiln. 'Now I know we are not even clear of a week of my exploding oven incident, however, I've been cursed again,' he laughed. The TV chef was in the middle of a cookery demonstration at Bord Bia Bloom last weekend when a glass oven door broke into pieces in his hand. Pic: Michael Chester 'I've just fired the kiln for the very first time and look what I woke up to,' he added, showing a number of shattered pottery pieces in the base of the kiln. 'Another explosion in the oven,' he laughed. 'However, despite my little one pot that exploded, I have been left with these beautiful vases.' Finding the humour in the incident, he continued: 'Oven explosions, I think it's just something I live with now.' Speaking to following his original over mishap, Donal explained: 'My biggest fear was that the glass was hot, it went all down my shirt, all down my top.' 'It had rained previously, so we've never had a more packed demo tent – of course – to witness it,' Skehan laughed. 'The thing I learned in all my years on television is that whatever goes wrong, you keep on cracking on. I've had many kitchen disasters, and I think this definitely tops it. There's nothing like something going wrong in front of 400 people.'
