Ok, so today I was at a dollar store and saw some cut beach-style bags. I was going to clean out their supply of them and then I realized, we have some single male guests who will be rooming all by themselves. I can't really see them toting around a cute little beach bag.

Did you guys use the same type of bags for male/female? Or did you have a separate "man-bag" or something for the single guys? All the bags I've seen so far and more "girly" bags.

someone said they are going to use a soft sided cooler and I thought that was a great idea - it would totally work for the boys!

Someone else used bookbags - more manly than a tote.

for the 1 room of guys that are flying solo, i think i will just put the same goodies in a paper bag rather than a canvas tote. i have posted some backpack style bags, but i am not going to bother - not with these guys!

I was wondering the same thing myself today! I was thinking about a solid color gift bag and adding a coozie filled with stuff. I have my FI thinking about what "guys want" and if he comes up with any good ideas, I'll pass them along!

I like that idea! I'll have to look around and see what I can find (not too big, not too small, not too expensive)...

I love this too! I saw some cheap backpacks at the dollar store and thought that could be an option too. It would definitely work for most of the single guys. We have one who will be our "Oddball"... one of Frank's best friends, whom we affectionately call "the Man-Whore".... his welcome bag will be filled with "Man-whore" gifts. *grin* (this is the guy who picked up a stripper and brought her to our engagement party dressed in her 'catholic girl' uniform when our entire family is ultra-conservative Catholics) hehehehe....

Nope...everything in my bag is for both men and women.....it is too problematic
