Many people will say that unpacking after a holiday is one of the worst post-trip chores. When you've just returned from a relaxing break, sorting out your belongings and loading up the washing machine quickly brings you back to reality.
Thankfully, Primark is selling a £2.50 item that could help speed up the task. The retailer is selling a Travel Laundry Bag, designed to simplify the process and save people time when unpacking their case after getting home from their holiday.
Primark's product description explains: "There’s nothing worse than getting home from holiday and having to sort out the washing! So, we’re helping make things a little bit easier with this black travel laundry bag.
"Folding up flat to save space in the suitcase, you can open it up to enjoy a drawstring bag that can be filled with dirty laundry and other items you want to keep separate. Topped with an aeroplane emblem, this will help make unpacking that little bit easier."
Available in one size, Primark describes the item as 'a foldaway laundry bag with a toggle fastening and aeroplane graphic.' It's offered in black, and it's only available for purchase in stores.
However, Primark also offers a range of packing cubes that could serve a similar purpose, and most are available for click-and-collect. For shoppers looking for sets, Primark has multiple options.

For £8, you get an eight-pack of Zip-Up Packing Cubes in a variety of styles, including polka-dot designs. There's also an £8 eight-pack of Packing Cubes in animal print designs. Or there are plain options too. However, stock availability varies.
