A set of compression cubes that'll create so much more room in your suitcase by squeezing out excess air. And you have ~options~ for how to pack, like grouping by piece (like T-shirts in one, underwear in another) or organizing by outfit to make getting dressed a breeze once you're there.

Plus, they're perfect for those carry-on-only trips since they're not considered a liquid!
