How Are Your Packing Skills?

When it comes to packing for a quick getaway, less is more . . . Right?!

So, how are we THIS bad at packing for a trip?

There’s a new survey out on the topic of overpacking, and a whopping 62% of us admit to being habitual overpackers.

Here’s the thing on overpacking, though . . . we don’t even end up wearing/using a good 24% of the stuff we pack . . . and then we STILL need to go buy something while on vacation that we forgot to pack.

The survey also found about 23% of us will pack less than 24 hours beforehand — with 7% of us waiting until the last couple hours before a trip to pack.

Then there’s the 13% of us who will start packing more than a week before a trip.

What are your packing habits; are you and overpacker or an underpacker?
