Interesting option there. I have to go to Target later this week so I'll take a look.

Ahhh I remember those days.....good times...good times. 3 kids, 1 wife, a tent, and all the essentials = just enough room for me to go too. Ha Ha.
Now the kids are all teens, and we have this big TT, seems almost too easy to go camping now.

I know it's been mentioned at least more than once. Take more rv toilet paper than you think you would ever use. And if there is going to be women on the trip, double, no triple that amount.
Don't ask!

After my first trip, I developed a throw-away mentality... paper plates, paper towels, aluminum foil plastic forks, plastic glasses, zip-lock bags, disposable aluminum in the oven... everything into a trash bag. I know, not very eco-friendly but "doin' tha dishes" became very low on my camping need-to-do list. Even my good ol' plastic storage containers gave way to zip-lock bags.
I was all dishes, glasses, corningware, silverware my first trip. My camp mates converted me easily.

As I sit here in my recliner chair and post on the interwebs from a state I do not live in(for the most part), yes.
And the cable tv selections are not to bad....

5 pages of posts on what to bring and I didn't see it....Band-aids. You will find more ways to hurt yourself camping than you ever could imagine. .

One last emphasis on a critical item:
F*U*S*E*S - at least 1 each of every one in your RV. 2 is even better.
Let me tell you about the time we were in a state park in "Out there" NM and I blew a fuse with no backup 45 mile drive one way to get fuses and it was getting dark. 6 Actual was NOT a happy camper!

Wait a minute! A "tilt LED" on the toilet? I'm wondering who gets to pee in the dark...me or the wife? Is it ON when seat is up or down? LOL! If it's me, in the dark...well, the wife will get very unhappy even with my best efforts!

So papicamper it mounts to the lid, not the seat. Works equally well for both of you. That make it ambiSEXtrous.

A nightlight or two
Countertop ice maker
Awning lights
Small collapsible tables for sitting around the campfire
Bug spray
Mattress topper
Lightbulbs
Tablecloths - either cloth or disposable to cover the disgusting table at the campsite
A table to sit next to your camper for the ice maker, etc.
Fire tongs
Portable water container
Beverages, whether they are "adult" or not
Cleaning supplies
Lots of paper towels and disposable everything - paper plates & bowls, cups, plastic utensils, etc.
I could just go on and on, but I don't want to scare you! I don't like to be without anything.
