BA CW Wash-bags Uses
Hi all,
This is a little off topic but relevant to BA so I figured I'd post it here. I'm curious what uses all of you have found for the BA Club World wash-bags? I've personally used a few as shoe bags or to carry cables and/or power plugs/converters but has anyone come up with any creative use? For those of you travel very frequently, are you at the point where you just leave them on the plane upon arrival?
Curious to hear your ideas!
Cheers,
TUF

For those of you who wear spectacles and have other bits and pieces that you need inflight, these soon-to-go wash bags are useful as storage areas in CW once the seat is reclined (© CIHY).
At home I use them for smaller sheep implements such as seam rippers, hoof picks, syringes, fencing tools. It inevitably gets quite muddy at this time of the year but can be chucked into the washing machine. One of the cats sometimes uses one as a face scrub.

My exact problem - I have just been leaving them on board lately. The charity suggestion from T8191 is a good one - I should start taking them and giving them to shelters. They can always use toiletries.

The place for decent toothbrushes is Asian hotel rooms. I carry quite a few of these around with me and replenish as and when. Quite frequently hand them out to colleagues who have forgotten theirs.
As for the CW bags, I use them as washbags and to store USB leads and so on. I find them more useful than the contents to be perfectly honest.

Use them to pack underwear on weekend trips, occasionally shoes or trainers if packing them (you need two bags though) and also useful for cables etc - although I have an ancient Elemis BA zipped pinstriped bag for those too. I suspect I’ll get much less use out of the new bags.
