    I am planning on making OOT bags for my guests... nothing huge but I think it's such a nice gesture and who doesn't like getting fun little things. I have been searching for the perfect and still affordable container when I realized that many of my guests will be sharing large vacation homes. So I am wondering do I want to drop off four or five of the same bags to one house or should I make small ones for the hotel guests and larger ones for groups in the houses? I already bought cute little activities, enough for each family. But I don't think each house would need 4/5 sets of welcome packs & would enjoy more of a variety of items.

     What do you think? Anyone else have multiple families in one house? Any ideas/advice?

    I would say mix it up for the one's staying together so people aren't all getting the same thing. This way they can swap stuff if they like.

    i would mix it up too!  we're going to be having couples sharing cottages & condos, so we're planning on mixing them up as well.

    Good I was hoping to do that. That is what I want but just wanted to check! I am so excited. Every time we go to the store and I see snacks I think about what we are going to put in them! So I think it will be more fun to use a larger variety. I am thinking gold fish, pretzels, salt water taffy, jelly beans (it's the weekend before easter and there are so many good ones *starburst*). 

     What are you ? What would you like to get? What would you not like?

    If you are still searching for bags, I highly recommend the reuseable grocery bags.  Everyone can use them again and they are a good size (and only $1!).

    I did a post about our choosing them here:
