Make Plans For Valentine's Day

Valentine’s Day falls on a Saturday this year, and it’s not far away. Are you making a weekend out of it? More importantly, what are you getting your loved one?

Romantic types will like the Kama Sutra® Weekender Kits. Each kit comes in a hinged box, and contains 6 travel size products (Love Oil, Pleasure Balm, Honey Dust, Sweet Almond Massage Oil, Love Liquid Sensual Lubricant, Love Feather). Their small size makes them ideal for stowing in carryon luggage for that quick weekend away, or tucking in a bedside table at home. They come in either original flavor or Strawberry Dream flavor.

For anyone who loves a bit of pampering, our Spa Treatment On The Go Kit fits the bill. The kits come with 26 travel size products (total of 28 items) perfect to indulge in a little bit of down time and luxury. Even the package is designed to travel: a foldout toiletry bag with handles. Choose from black, brown, or baby blue toiletry bags.

If your getaway means traveling by car, don’t forget to pack the essentials you need to make the trip a little more enjoyable (and maybe a bit safer). The Car Travel Essentials Kit has everything from first aid and emergency supplies to toilet seat covers and bathroom tissue for those road side pit stops where the restroom’s cleanliness is questionable.

If you’re traveling with kids don’t forget to keep them occupied with one of our popular travel games. We have everything for every age, from the preschooler’s favorite Travel CandyLand® (no reading required) to Hungry Hungry Hippos® (two players) to the teen and adult favorite Electronic Sudoku.

Don’t forget to order soon for delivery before Valentine’s Day, and as always, orders over $20 receive free ground shipping in the continental US.

Top 10 Must-Have Items on Inauguration Day

Tips from Minimus.biz to help increase your comfort and enjoyment on Obama’s big day

To help you to relax, be comfortable, and enjoy Inauguration Day,
Minimus.biz, the leader in travel-sized items, has put together a top-ten list of must-have items to keep you warm, fed, clean, and entertained during the lengthy, cold day outdoors.

Inauguration Day 2009 – Top 10 Must-Have Items

1. Thirty-seven degree weather is bad enough but what if it rains? Umbrellas are a no-no even in a downpour so be prepared for cold, wet weather by bringing an Emergency Poncho.
2. Only small snacks will be allowed once inside the gates so stock up on your favorite travel size snacks like Kar’s nuts and trail mixes for yourself and any little ones you have along with you.
3. We all love our nice, expensive digital cameras but not when we can’t keep it protected inside a camera bag (especially if it rains) so guard yourself, and your investment, and bring a disposable camera to capture the day’s memories instead.
4. Two words – portable restrooms. It’s better to be safe rather than sorry so take some Charmin Toilet Seat Covers and Bathroom Tissue along, just in case.
5. Bypass needing a thermos by stocking up with a few Stacker2 Energy drinks. Each small bottle is easy to carry, and requires no mixing powders or swallowing vitamin pills to get a boost.
6. Thinking you’ll need some extra energy to stand for hours outdoors? Choose from a selection of 5-hour Energy drinks, Power Bar Gels and Performance Bars, and Clif Energy Bars to keep you standing as long as needed.
7. And to keep you occupied during those long wait times in line, grab a small travel-size game to slip out of your pocket and play like Sudoku Handheld Electronic Puzzle Game or The Original Pocket Farkel® Dice Game.
8. Even though your diaper bag and stroller are required to stay home, no parent can forget to bring along the Wet Ones® Antibacterial Wipes or other wet wipe to handle the multitude of child emergencies that are sure to arise.
9. Through rain, snow, sleet, or gloom…remember to use sunscreen to protect yourself from the sun’s harmful rays (whether they are visible or not) while spending hours outside.
10. Hand sanitizer – remember the snacks, outdoor messes, and portable restrooms? Need I say more?

As an extra bonus, remember that since these items are in conveniently small travel-sized pacakges, you can fit it all inside a small bag or purse and not even worry about the ban on backpacks, suitcases, and other large bags. Get your inauguration necessities today.

Travel Sizes and 2009

Happy 2009 to All!

As Co-Founder of Minimus.biz, I thought I'd take a moment to post on the blog and thank our customers for helping to make 2008 our best year so far. We have always stated that one of our goals was to listen to our customers' comments and ideas, and many of our plans for 2009 are the direct result of customer requests. We will be continuing to add hundreds of new items to our product lines throughout the year, many of which are already in the lineup and will be launching soon. Additionally, we will be adding two new major shopping aisles to our online store. We will continue to update you through our blog and newsletters with our new products, sales, coupons, stories from customers, and information from the world of travel sizes. Please continue to send in your comments and ideas, and stay tuned throughout the year as we anticipate some really great additions to the Minimus family.
