Creator's Key Takeaways

I shopped at Target to check out the store's top cruise items.

I always travel with a long USB cable so that I can make the most of the available charging ports in my room.

These sandals have a Birkenstock-style design, and they're made with a durable foam material.

I really enjoyed just walking around and seeing what would be useful, and this list barely scratched the surface.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Set a budget of $20 per item to find affordable cruise essentials.
✓Bring a long USB cable to maximize charging ports in your cabin.
✓Use a pop-up laundry hamper to keep your cabin organized.
✓Buy travel-size toiletries and medications at Target to save money on the ship.
