Essential Items for a Quick Road Trip

I have been compensated by QVC and ShopStyle for this post, but all thoughts and opinions are my own.

 

We will be taking another road trip soon.  It’s a short one this time… maybe 4 hours.  You know how much we love being stuck in the car for hours upon end.  ???? ????????  Topics discussed over on Instagram stories usually end up being about the worst hotels we’ve stayed in…(AKA the Cockroach Inn)  or the station wagon Deb’s family used to drive.   It was one with the rear facing backseat.    Remember those?  ????   Anyway… EVERY SINGLE TIME we leave town and have to drive anywhere, Deb stresses.  Along with filling up the gas tank, she gets the oil changed, vacuums and cleans the inside, runs it through the car wash, etc.  I totally understand.  It’s because she will have to deal with the mishaps.

We are prepared even more this next road trip.  Not only will all of the above still be taken care of, but I recently received a few different essentials items from QVC that are perfect for any road trip.   It should calm Deb’s nerves just a tad bit more.

QVC’s Today’s Special Value deals page is where you can get amazing deals on items for a short period of time.  First time customers can get $10 off with the code WELCOME and second time customers with the code HELLO10.

 

 

Essential Items for a Road Trip

 

HALO Bolt Compact Portable Charger & Car Jump Starter

We recently received this HALO Bolt Compact Portable Charger and Car Jump Starter from QVC and truly think EVERYONE needs one.  Not only can you charge your cell phones and tablets while you are on the run.  BUT, this little charger can jump start your car.  Yes, you read that right.  If you are on a trip, and your battery is dead, you are all set.  This HALO Bolt Portable Charger comes with jumper cables that plug into this charger and can jump your car battery.

The HALO Bolt Compact also has a floodlight on the one end that can also be turned into a flashing light in case of an emergency.  It comes in several different colors and would make an EXCELLENT gift for a new driver, collage student, or basically EVERYONE you know. It’s normally $99 and on sale for $79.96.

 

HALO Power Cube 5000

The HALO Power Cube is a portable charger for your phones and tablets that is small enough to carry with you in your purse.   It has not one, but TWO USB ports.  And, you can plug it into any outlet to re-charge it.  No more trying to remember the charging cord for your portable charger.  It comes in several different colors and is perfect as a quick little gift item.   It is now on sale for $38.74 and is normally $44.

 

 

Other Traveling Items from QVC

 

You ALWAYS need luggage and packing cubes when you travel.  We just got back from New Orleans so it’s fresh in my head of how we packed and what we used.

Luggage

Tri-force 3-pc Luggage Set with Built-in Scale and Cup Holder

 

They have a fantastic deal going on right now.  QVC has their Triforce 3-piece luggage set on MAJOR SALE.  Normally $230, it is now $209 with FREE SHIPPING.  We took ours with us to New Orleans when we went and were so happy with it.  They are sold out of the leopard design like ours but it is still available in Lilac.  This 3-pc set has such great features.  The 29″ has a built-in scale so that you always know before you get to the airport how much your luggage weighs.  And, the carry-on even has a cup holder.  ???? How perfect is that?  And, the beauty case completes the set with a mirror inside and a long strap for easy carrying.  They all store inside one another so it takes up so little room here in our rental.

Here are a few more great deals from QVC on 3-pc luggage sets.  There may be a few more color options available including leopard.

Triforce Floral Print Luggage Set – $260

Triforce Embroidered Floral 3-pc Hardside Luggage Set –  $260

Triforce Luggage Set of 3 Spinner Luggage – $199.95 – Reg. $240

Triforce Luggage 3-Piece Luggage Set – $220

 

 

Packing Cubes

 

The Camouflage Company Set of Three Packing Cubes – (exclusive to QVC)

 

Three packing cubes come in this set.  They have a few different color options and are on sale at $24.98, regularly $29.98.  For those who have never used packing cubes, they are LIFE CHANGING.  Packing cubes keep EVERYTHING organized, which means you-know-who (Deb) is happy about that.  We can get so much more stuffed in a smaller suitcase which means sometimes we can both get away with just a carry-on.

 

QVC is truly your one-stop shop.  They have pretty much EVERYTHING you could ever need or want.  You have no idea how much I buy from them.   I make sure to check every day for Today’s Special Value because their prices can’t be beat.   Lots of times they even have FREE shipping and offer Easy Pays on some items.  So keep all of that in mind when you are doing some online shopping.

 

AND… keep all of these items in mind when you are getting ready to travel this year!

    I bought the 3 set of TriForce luggage you featured before this for $199. They were perfect for my trip to Florida. Thanks so much for sharing them. I bought the black floral set and was complimented on them everywhere. Even the skycaps told me they were the nicest set of luggage they’ve seen. Way to go QVC!
