What's the name of the liquid storage containers for booze?

Post by Bumblebee2 »

I've searched and searched and I can't find the name of the rubberlike liquid storage containers. You know, the ones you can put in your checked luggage (to transport booze).

Thanks!

I'm thinking of the thing you can fill with say vodka for example (looks kind of like a hot water bottle)and put it in your checked luggage.

Is this to bring home or tale down booze is so much cheaper on the islands. When I'm bring home booze I wrap it in bubble wrap or ditry laundry and check a boxe of six packed a ahrise

I'm not sure what you mean, but you can buy styrofoam bottle holders. They are used to pack wine for shipment. You could just put your bottle of vodka or whatever in one and tape it shut. They come in all different size configurations. I used one to bring down a special bottle of champagne last trip. They look like this:

In general, though, I think you'll find that liquor is a bargain on the island--there's no need to bring from home unless you are packing something unique.
It's like looking in your soup and finding a whole different alphabet.

Thats what we originally bought them for, but now we take them with us to the usvi empty and bring back any left over booze that we don't finish during the week. Of course that has been the plan.....we have never had any left over. We still bring them along though!

That company also makes a cool 3oz. travel kit to transfer your personal products into so you can carry on items that are not made in 3oz. packages.

These look pretty cool for beach bevvies!

Tempted, so tempted. I like things that pack flat. But, do I really need more stuff? I wants it, I needs it.

Cheers, RickG

Go 4 it RickG.

We've had our rum runner flasks (crusie kit)
for over 2 years and never had a problem
with any of them. Real durable and no leaks
from caps.
