Captain Nowhere Bring Snacks

Few magical places in this life offer us the opportunity to pay two
to three times as much for ordinary items such as snacks and
batteries. The movie theater, the zoo, and the airport. Yes that's
right this bag of Skittles is going to cost you $2.50 plus tax. Why?
Well, we know you have the munchies and we also know that you
are not going anywhere else anytime soon to find an alternative
price range. So, go ahead just turn your wallet upside down and
shake it out into our greedy little hands. You can have the lint
back.

This like so much else we discuss when preparing for travel can be
avoided with a little planning. While your out buying your travel
size tooth paste and shampoo grab some low fat granola and
maybe a banana or two . . . yeah right, go ahead grab the king
size Reeses, Jelly Bellies, and other sugary salty indulgences.

Don't wait and do it at the gas station on the way in or really why
bother, that is almost as bad. Unfortunately, they are more than
likely gonna get you with your liquid caffeine fixes. Security as you
know, does not allow liquids or gels through, sorry. But, even this
can be gotten around if you don't need Starbucks. Bring an empty
water bottle and those individual packets they sell for Kool-Aid,
tea, or Propel. Then once you are past security you can fill up at a
water fountain and mix.

One last thing for you coffee drinkers . . . DO NOT DRINK THE
COFFEE SERVED IN FLIGHT. Just trust me on this one. Seriously.
You are better off paying what they're charging in the airport for a
Scooters coffee or whatever brand they're pedaling for five bucks
a cup.

Travel Safe, Travel Smart . . . Get Somewhere!
