Be prepared for summer fun with an on-the-go summer car kit. Have on hand the things you need for an impromptu day at the beach or park. I’m one of those people who likes to always be prepared, especially when I travel or embark on day trips with my family here in Florida. The summer months are fast approaching, so I recently paid a visit to my local Sam’s Club to gather supplies for my on-the-go summer car kit.
This post is sponsored by Member’s Mark Brand 2-ply Facial Tissue. However, all opinions are my own.
During the summer months, my family spends a lot of time visiting amusement parks, the beach, and local parks. All those fun Florida destinations that we don’t have time to enjoy during the busy school year.
My summer car kit includes some items that are essential to summer fun, such as sun screen and sunglasses. I’m also sure to include multi-purpose items like wipes and Member’s Mark Brand 2-ply Facial Tissue.
My family goes through a lot of facial tissues so the 12-pack Member’s Mark Brand 2-ply Facial Tissue found on the Household Paper Aisle at Sam’s Club is one of the many things I like to stock up on. I always keep a box in the car. You get 12 boxes of 160 count 2-ply facial tissue for just $11.98, which is less than $1 per box.
They come in handy for more than runny noses, and are great for spills or when the drive-thru forgets to include napkins. The multi-purpose tissues have 2-ply softness for every day. In addition to Member’s Mark Brand 2-ply Facial Tissue, here are some other suggestions for your mom on-the-go summer car kit:
When creating your car kit, you’ll first need to find a container. Fabric cubes are great, and so are plastic tubs with lids. I am currently using a fabric trash bin that was made for the car. It fits perfectly on the floor of the back seat. Next, gather your supplies.

Save Time with the Sam’s Club Scan & Go App
You can have even more time for summer fun when you use the Sam’s Club Scan & Go app. If you’re not already using it, I highly recommend adding this app to your iPhone or Android mobile phone. Before heading to Sam’s Club you’ll want to download the app, sign into your Sam’s Club account and add a payment method. Once in-store, open the app and connect to your store’s WiFi.
Scan the barcode of each item you wish to purchase and then place the item into the shopping cart. No barcode? Quickly look up the item with “Find an Item.” As you shop, you will see the running total of the items in your cart.
Easily checkout and pay in the app. Then, show the receipt from your phone to an associate on the way out. It’s that simple. Did you notice that you get to skip the check-out lines when using this app? I love it!

That is a great idea. It has what you need. thank you for the idea.
Great items! I would also include a battery pack and cord as well as water wings as my kids have a very broad range.
These are all such great items to keep packed in your car.
This is a great list of items that will be really helpful for those summer road trips too. Always having that sunscreen ready is critical.
This is a brilliant idea. I remember being a mom on the go so much when my sons were younger, they are 2 years apart so I was busy for awhile. I am going to have to share this!
This is a must have list of essentials for any mom on the go. My husband never has anything we need in his car, but thankfully I am prepared in mine for any situation so we always end up taking my car.
I am always on the go. Then, I find myself scrambling for something to wipe a runny nose. I’m going to put my summer car kit together today.
what a great kit. I buy my tissues in bulk too! My hubby needs to do 5 sets of eyedrops a day an needs to use a tissue to block the tear duct, so there are tissue boxes everywhere and bulk stores are the best deal. But you would be shocked how handy them and a towel can be in a car at all times. For spills or little messes or even muddy hands. Treats I bet also come in very handy with longer haul rides.
Great list. I used to only keep tissues and wipes in my car, now with a baby I keep extra everything in there. I carry a diaper bag and an extra packed diaper bag for emergency, because sometimes I get very forgetful.
This is a great idea for those road trips.
