Im not sure if this is a whacked out question or what....anyway.....Does anyone carry plugs (one size fits all) ?

You know so you can fill the hostel sinks so you can have a shave/wash your clothes in/do dishes etc etc

Yeah I have read about many people taking them so they can wash their clothes and whatnot. Excellent investment I would think.

Getting one of these at your local hardware store will be easy, and they take next to no space, bringing one with you will make you prepared. I would say, why not, if you don't use it, no drama, but if you need it, you get to smirk to yourself about it!!!

Hahahha!!! I can picture you trying to explain why you carry a plug...Hum...Seriously, I use an even cheaper trick: I fill the hole with a wet sock that I also need to wash...It usually works if I need to fill the sink...One size fits all!

OZmate... Aussie disposals, $5 for one size fits all plug...

but i think the sock idea is better anyways. The room you save in your pack, replace with a hipflask of wiskey...
