My best travel companions are my Birckenstock sandals. I can wear them for days, even weeks, without getting sore feet and they're really good for people who got a bad back.

If you have an iPhone, this is pretty much something you need to have. The Backflip Iphone case. Its a kickstand that allows you set up your phone on the tray and watch a movie. Probably the best part is everyone around you being jealous.

I use something like those Freshhangers, below. Great for storing your winter jackets, tuxedos, etc...

Without a doubt the best travel related purchase I've made is a new travel pillow. I gave up on others and started wrapping a blanket around my neck. Have you ever tried that? I thought I would give it another try before my flight to Hong Kong and came across the Embrace Sleep Collar. It doesn't hang on your neck like the others, but fits on the front. It was a lifesaver.

Have you tried Freshhangers? Great for getting extra wear out of clothes - even those exposed to cigarette smoke. It's a cover - five to a package for $14.95 - that fits over any style hanger. Put a garment on it at night and it's fresh-smelling in the morning. Takes up zip for space and weight in a bag. Works best on shirts and jackets; wish they'd come up with a long one for slacks. Find out more at www.freshhanger.com.

The upshot from Frugal Traveler's "Top 10 Travel Gadgets Under $50" in NYT online today:

1. Leatherman Juice C2 ($31.99 at Amazon) multi-tool implement including scissors and corkscrew.

2. Fenix LD01 ($42 from Amazon) light, tiny but throws off 80 lumens from a single AAA-powered Cree bulb.

3. Memorex Money Clip Flash Drive ($17.99 at Target), including a one-gigabyte USB drive.

4. Kryptonite R4 retractable cable lock ($18 on Amazon), with a detachable LED flashlight.

5. Travel Space Bags ($7 for two medium bags, $8 for two large at the Container Store).

6. Belkin Mini Surge Protector ($25), with three outlets and two USB jacks (great for MP3 players and cellphones).

7. Gorillapod mini tripod, with flexible, multijointed legs that let it balance just about anywhere, even around vertical poles, tree branches or wherever you want to prop the camera. The original, good for compact cameras, costs $21.95 from its manufacturer, Joby, while a larger version, which can handle the weight of an S.L.R., is $39.95.

8. Adventurer Medical kit from REI ($24.95), seven ounces, with all the usual bandages and tablets, plus safety pins, duct tape, sting-relief wipes and protective nitrile gloves.

9. Grundig Mini 300 shortwave radio ($30), 4.7 ounces.

10. Ecojot’s 3-by-4-inch recycled-paper notepads (about $5), small and flexible but with enough backing to provide a stable writing surface. Pen: Muji’s 0.38-millimeter gel-ink ballpoints, $1.25 apiece.
