There's one thing you can't deny about America: when it comes to finding the easy way out, we've got a solution for it.
Too many plastic grocery bags? Buy a bag collector to keep your bags conveniently located in one place. (Alternative: make one bag the "storage bag" and place all other bags in the bag. It's a free and resusable solution.)
Too busy to buy scented soap? Use the stainless steel "Rub Away" bar to get smells off your hands. Because stainless steel, garlic and fish odors smell great together!
For some, the thought of travel creates a level of anxiety curable only with varying degrees of Valium. Add to it the stress of packing and you might as well walk on the plane wearing a straight jacket. Leave it to America to come up with a solution to help ease your stress (if prescription medication doesn't appeal to you). If you're already an anxious traveler, why add the anxiety of transporting your luggage with you?
Enter: The Luggage Express. The purpose: to travel light.
According to their website, "Luggage Express® will pick up your luggage, golf clubs, bike, skis, snowboard, kayak, gear bags or other items at your home or office and deliver it to your destination."
How convenient!!! Unless you're a perfectionist like me and stress happens when you're not in control of something... like your luggage. The good news: if your luggage does not arrive, you can scout out the best boutiques in your area and go shopping for new clothes... which you'll need to re-pack in your already overpacked luggage when it arrives.

This reminds me of a funny scene in the book Confessions of a Shopaholic (one of my guilty pleasures) where the protagonist, in an attempt to impress her new boyfriend by packing lightly for a holiday, takes a tiny bag (filled with cosmetics only) and ships all of her clothes to the hotel. Of course, the package doesn't arrive, there's nary a shop around, and her boyfriend "helpfully" sends out her only set of clothes to be cleaned =) Would I trust Airport Express with my vacation clothes? Not on your life...carry-on only for me!
