Does anyone have one to share or know where I can get one?

So many lists for Pesach etc but can't find bungalow packing list. On Ima I've found a few topics that say there are plenty of lists floating around Smile

but I can't seem to find them.

I just go into every room and think what I would need for a six week vacation. (or 9, depending on how long youre going for.) You can buy everything in the catskills these days, so besides for clothing, shoes, and personal effects, anything you forget you can buy at walmart, amazing savings, save right, etc.

True, but they are so much more expensive upstate. I rather spend a bit more time n energy than having to shop there.

the one time expenses like pool stuff (tubes, goggles, slippers, robe), outdoor toys, personal things like clothing, toiletries, etc. I bring up with me.

ongoing purchases like household products, cleaning stuff, groceries, plastic cups.plates. etc, I buy once I'm there. maybe I'll bring the first initial week or 2 supply with me so that I don't need to shop right away, but that will depend on how much room I have in the truck taking up my stuff.

I do drive so its not the biggest deal for me to make a quick run to walmart/rite aid/amazing savings if needed. Last year I brought EVERYTHING with me. and I still went out about once a week shopping at least.

Well it depends how much room u have in ur van. If u have a lot of room then take along broom, shovel, garbage can, mop, pail, shower curtain, bath mat, window shades, whatever u need to make a place liveable.

But...walmart, amazing savings, save rite are more expensive than shopping in the city? say that again? theyre discount stores!!

not really a matter of discount stores. its the idea of running for every little thing and going to walmart cost way more than just a window shade!! minimum spending is a few hundred dollars!!!

Thanks everyone. Those lists are a good start! I'd rather bring most stuff so I don't have to shop there, but it's good to know I can get what I need if I forget something!

I'm not very familiar with modern bungalow life, but can't you leave stuff there from year to year? If I could, I'd just stock it as a second home.

I leave bikes, garbage cans (on a high shelf) and the mop and broom, but that's about it. The bungalow I go to is invade by mice and other lovely creatures all year. It's disgusting to leave anything else.

Verizon provides DSL to many areas of the mountains. otherwise you can get a TMobile Rocket at walmart (order it online to be picked up at walmart) for $50 for 5gb or something.
