eBags eTech 2.0 Mother Lode Mini 21" Wheeled Duffel

This year alone there were several different times where one of us needed to pack a suitcase but we didn't need a large one and we needed something for more than a couple of nights. Believe it or not we did not have a carry-on size piece of luggage. This awesome wheeled duffel meets most airline standards to be stored in the overhead bin. You can't go wrong with ebags!

U-shaped double zip opening for easy loading. Opening measures approximately 11.5” x 14”
Fold-up wire-framed wings apply support to the feet section, allowing the duffel to stand upright even when fully loaded, as well as adding definition to the upper section. Fold the wings down when storage space is an issue
Well protected wheels are hot-poured Polyurethane – the quietest wheels you won’t hear in the concourse

Glass Dharma Straws  Wonderful stocking stuffer! - GO HERE FOR THE GIVEAWAY ENDS 12/14 US & CANADA 

Check out Powered by Mom's previous review on these straws HERE

The Glass Dharma Straws not only make for a wonderful gift any time of year but by using these beautifully crafted straws instead of plastic ones people are helping the environment! Better yet glass straws don’t leach toxins into your food as you drink. Each time you use your glass straw equals one less plastic straw ending up in your landfill. One glass straw replaces thousands of plastic straws. (How many times will you use a straw the rest of your life?)

  1. I like to give family gifts rather than all individual gifts, I love those board games. Everyone in my family loves game nights, so that's a great idea.

  3. i like the EatSmart/TravelWise packing cubes. They are nice. I really like the fact that they fit in dresser drawers and dont have to be unpacked or repacked

  4. I still don't get the whole glass straw thing. I suppose if you use one often it would work. I only use a straw when I get one at a fast food place.
