199 days agghhhh! I'm stressing a little too, I just graduated so I know how you feel, I hadn't done much before graduating. Now I'm sitting around and doing nothing but looking at wedding stuff and studying for my nursing license exam, which I take mon aghhh again! However, now that I have the time I don't have a job= I shouldn't be spending $ so I feel guilty with every purchase I make but I know it is a good opportunity to get things done.. anyway enough about me.. I made a wedding coloring book and an ocean coloring book for the kid OOT bags and a puzzle book for the adults and printed them out before I graduated (gotta get my money's worth) then I just clipped them together with brads.. if you want the templates let me know

great site, I haven't seen this one before!!

that would make a good addition to the bags and not to expensive.. hmm something else to think about! Thanks for sharing!

yay thanks for sharing, there are some good deals there!

Those are really cute!

you can also go to vistaprint/yousave ... lots of free offers and half price uploading but like jlyn said you can replace the image and find almost anything you need through their image library... am I the only one who stopped getting emails from them? I used to get them all the time, it is always for the same stuff that you can access by going to the /yousave but still i kinda miss their crazy emails

She didn't say so I looked it up, it the Verified Internet Pharmacy Practice Sites (or VIPPS) seal- a seal that indicates that the website is able to run as a pharmacy and the meds it is despensing are FDA approved, if the site doesn't have that seal that it might not be selling FDA approved meds... I found a link to list of places that have the VIPPS seal: Google Image Result for http://www.thepatientsvoice.com/vipps2.bmp

this looks like a good site for lanyards.. Shop Online Or Buy Badge Reels, Holders, Clips, Retractable, ID Card Reel, Name Badge, Universal Reels

Ok here is the deal with the site I posted, my friend who is a pharmacist says that they look legit but don't have the seal to prove it and they don't have a place on the site to read customer reviews so you are buying at your own risk

I actually saw it at Target today $1.99.. I think I"ll have to add it to my list!

Postcards are free from vistaprint, go to vistaprint.com/yousave and you can get 100 for free, you can upload your own image usually 1/2 price so it is 2.49 to upload an image, or use one of theirs, you can search what they have in categories or select one then go to advanced editing, right click, replace image, search our image library, and type in whatever item you want and something will probably be there

I think I'll do post-it notes in their OOT bags so they can stick notes on doors. But I'd also like to do some sort of a "central message board" where people can post notes about what they're doing etc.. Has anyone had any ideas about doing something like this, and if so, how would you do it? 1) Ok I'm doing: ~Postcards made on vistaprint (if you are going to do this let me know don't upload your own pics you can find good ones on there a different way) ~Photoshare cards made on vistaprint business cards ~Luggage tags, I bought advantus badge holders off amazon and two different business cards from vistaprint and glued them onto a piece of cardstock.. haven't made loops for the handles yet might do ribbon ~Doortags you can use broacher template on vistaprint… copy to all three panels and then you can make 3x as many, they aren't too thick so I think will need to laminate them ~Mini hand sanitzer (during back to school time Staples had them for a penny each!) ~First aide kits: aspirin, bandaides, alcohol wipes, alka seltzer, kids icepacks (have ocean animals on them, are in the Target dollar spot right now), sunscreen packets, motion sickness pills, aloe (only have some of these things so far) -using pencil cases from the staples penny sale to put the stuff in ~Girly bags for the women: mini nail polish, polish remover, nail files.. not sure what else if anything yet ~Eye glass cleaner (for everyone's sunglasses), they were on sale at Target a while back and they came in individual packets so I scooped up a bunch ~Tissue packets from dollar tree, 8 for $1 they are bright colors ~Chapstick, ordered return address labels from vistaprint to make labels for them but it is too big and I don't like it so I might make a different one (love how cheap vistaprint is!) ~Puzzle books, made myself and printed them out at school before I graduated haha gotta get my moneys worth! ~Coloring books for the kids, 1 of ocean animals, 1 wedding.. printed out the same way ~Maps of Miami, uploaded and printed from vistaprint ~Vistaprint pen, sticky pad, and hats (I've ordered these one by one and only have 7 I might have to bail on this idea or just put them in the bridal party bags?) ~Food: lifesavers, swedish fish, mints, gum, goldfish, pringles with the customized labels.. anything else that I can think of that is cruise related ~Playing cards.. probably just get them from the dollar tree or get the beach ball ones from OTC but they don't look very practical ~Sign and Sail pass holders.. maybe the hibiscus coin purses from OTC? with lanyards or a carabiner clip ~Water bottles with personalized labels or travel cups or mugs? not sure about this one yet.. do people think it is worth it oon a cruise? ~Welcome note, timeline, list of excursions with ours highlighted 2) yup- used vistaprint brochures 3) I think post-its are a good idea and if you want to do a central dry erase board then you could put it on your door, they have some in the dollar spot at Target right now.

So cute!! I even love the packaging!!

for those looking for travel mugs here is what I have complied: Staples, BJs/Sams wholesale clubs, Minimus - For All Your Travel Size Item Needs, First Aid Tablets & First Aid Medications...Wholesale to the Public Online! the last website someone just mentioned in this forum and I wrote an email to my friend who is a pharmacist to check it out looks like good deals on generics but I wouldn't want people to get ripped off so I'll post her response when I get it.

My cousin is in school in Canada maybe I'll see what she can do for me! Thanks

This site is great, I'll check with my friend who is a pharmacist and see what she thinks about the meds and let you know just in case!

Oh duh, I should have looked at your info... that is such a good idea to get everyone to the port, and that way they won't be late either!!

I'd go with the pails they look really cute!

Thanks for the tips and sorry to hear about the mini beach ball incidents, that is exactly why I didn't even contemplate getting them lol, I'm always the target and I have horrible aim so I can never return the favor!

Those came out really cute... where did you find the mini downy wrinkle releaser? I have never seen them that small.

Do you like the pens? I was looking at them the other day and thought they were cute but I need some opinion from people who have bought them first.

Thanks for sharing, I haven't been to Offic Depot in a while I'll have to stop by and check them out!

Yeah it is a cute one~!
