We all know people who wait until the VERY last minute to pack for a trip . . . even if it has burned them in the past. But usually that’s for a full-on vacation.
So how long in advance would you start packing your bags for a brief weekend getaway? Not surprisingly, plenty of people don’t need much time. In a poll, 18% of people said they do it the same day they leave . . . 27% will start the day before . . . and another 20% of people need a couple of days. But 5% of people start packing one WEEK before, or even earlier than that.
Men are far more likely to pack the day they leave for the weekend trip . . . and Boomers are more likely to pack at the last minute than younger adults.
And I know you aren’t going to believe this, but the numbers are pretty much EXACTLY the same between liberals and conservatives . . . so maybe that’s the common ground: Time needed to pack for a short trip.
