I'm going on a beach vacation, but we will also spend time at a waterpark....which extension cords do you usually take with you when you want to be under the radar? I don't want to be too flashy--pickpockets and all....


MY rule of thumb is; I only take what I can afford to lose. I agree, taking your extension cords on vacation can be tricky. You might feel like you don't want to be flashy but what if you have the opportunity to pull out a 12 foot extension cord & you only packed a 6 ft. How would that make you feel? I'm all about choice. Go wild, pack a 6, a 12 maybe a 20 ft cord. You may want to leave room in your suitcase 'cuz girl....you know you'll be looking for one more special cord that will balance out your collection. We don't need regrets of what we 'should have bought'.

OMG. I haven't even gotten all the way through the thread yet and I'm dying laughing. Anyway, I see that all of your cords look newer than mine. When I got mine, the guy at the hardware store just pulled it out of a drawer. It wasn't in bubble wrap or anything. Did I get a used extension cord?

Do you think it's to big for a momma who's going to use it at the mall for a day out with her kids and needs multiple ways to carry it?

You should get outlet covers for your extension cord, especially with children. But I find these extension cords are great with children as long as they don't strangle themselves. They are also easy to clean, just wipe and go.

Extension cord covers for the children!!?!?? Now why didn't I think of that. <shocked> You just saved my bacon. I'll have to order them right now.

I'd better double my personal writers insurance for this one. Thanks so much-I wouldn't want anything to touch or happen to my babies.
 
Is it safe to clean your extension cords with baby wipes? What about magic eraser? Anyone have a conditioner they could recommend?
