'I fly Ryanair with free luggage allowance - here's how I fit everything in'

A woman has shared her 'perfect' packing hack that allows her to fit her entire wardrobe in a small hand luggage bag - and she even packed her flip-flops and sun cream too
Jetting off on holiday is always a buzz, but the battle of cramming your life into a suitcase can be a real pain. Packing can feel like a huge task, with the struggle to fit all your must-haves, especially if you don't want to pay extra for luggage. But this year, a packing hack from a clever TikToker could change the game.
The user, who goes by Devinjadex on TikTok, shared a video that shows how you can get all your clothes into just a small bag. It sounds too good to be true, but she pulls it off without a hitch.

In her video, she talks about a specific bag she uses, and admits people "don't believe" you can pack an entire wardrobe in there. Yet, she stands by her word. Known as the Ryanair travel bag, it's exactly 40x20x25, making it "perfect to take on budget airlines". She shared that she bought the bag from Kono & Miss Lulu on TikTok.

To prove her point, she posted a clip of herself skilfully filling the bag with all her travel essentials. Her stash included outfits, flip-flops, swimwear, and beauty products, enough for a four night trip.
The TikToker brags that everything fits "perfectly" into the bag, which also slips neatly under the plane seat. She highlights that you can get "so much stuff" into the small suitcase, and it's super efficient.
She boasts that this straightforward method let her take "everything she needed for a holiday" without forking out extra cash.
The brilliant packing hack has sparked a buzz as intrigued followers asked for details on her smart travel tip.
One hopeful follower shared: "I just ordered one - you better not be lying." Another praised: "Looks great - can really fit a lot in there."

A third user said they also managed to pull off the packing trip: "I have it - it fits. And mine was stuffed to capacity. Trust."
Despite lots of enthusiasm, some voiced scepticism about the bag's true capacity, with one doubter remarking: "I've got the bag, and don't feel like it fits this much in."

Someone else pondered the practicality, asking: "Is it not really heavy to carry?".
Yet, amidst the doubts, numerous travellers said the method was "absolutely perfect", with plenty indicating plans to try it out themselves on future trips. A few had already put the hack through its paces with great results.
One flyer commented: "I have one of these recently, went to Spain for four days. Had all I needed - brilliant!".
Another user spoke out against the cynics: "Everyone commenting that it won't fit, trust me it will. I've got a bag similar size. I actually packed a little more than her, and mine surprised me and actually fit at EasyJet gate the other week."

A packed flight was due to board a bus to their plane when the female passenger was stopped in the queue. Nikolay Stefanov, a witness to the shocking ordeal, said the woman was told she had to pay for extra baggage because her luggage didn't fit in the holdall. The woman refused to pay as she explained her bag could in fact fit. Footage shows her trying to force her bag into the luggage rack by slamming it in. The bag does eventually fit but the staff still refuse to let her board. She then breaks down in tears as she pleads with a member of the border police and takes a video of the bag which is now wedged inside the rack. Dozens of the passengers were seen watching on from behind a glass door which was all that separated them from the weeping woman. Determined to board, she then starts to bang on the door and ask for help as Nikolay films the sad ordeal. More staff quickly surround the woman as her begging grows louder. Moment Brit woman is dragged off Ryanair flight & thrown to floor after 'assaulting passengers and making bomb threat' At one point she even drops to her knees before placing her hand on the door as tears roll down her face. Nikolay said the whole situation "escalated quickly". He added: "She was pleading with us not to leave, but we were threatened that the entire flight would be cancelled if we didn't get on the bus, so passengers became frightened and left." Nikolay said many onlookers were also shocked by how the staff treated her with next to no compassion. It has also been claimed that another passenger stood behind the woman in line was removed from the flight. A Ryanair staff member allegedly said that they couldn't let him on because "reopening the gate risked the woman trying to get on the bus". The viral footage soon caught the eye of Bulgaria's parliament. Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Transport Grozdan Karadjov has reportedly ordered an inspection of the airport's security cameras. Mr Karadjov is even said to have described the behaviour of employees in the video as "outrageous", reports. He has assured people that the main ground operator will be found and given the "highest fine" and a verbal warning. In response, Goldair Handling Bulgaria insisted their employees acted "professionally and without any physical contact with the passenger". The handling company released a statement to BNT News that read: "All rules regarding passengers' baggage, its permissible size and the fees payable for baggage are determined solely, entirely and unilaterally by the airlines. "Goldair Handling Bulgaria OOD is solely obliged to monitor compliance with these rules by the airlines. "This also applies to hand luggage, as Goldair Handling Bulgaria OOD is obliged to monitor the dimensions of this baggage and collect excess baggage fees. "[Staff] acted professionally and without any physical contact with the passenger." It comes as Ryanair's CEO is considering increasing bonuses paid to staff for spotting oversized luggage. The budget airline currently pays staff approximately €1.50 (£1.30) for stopping passengers with oversized bags from boarding the aircraft. Currently, staff bonuses for doing this are capped at €80 (£70) a month. Passengers who are unlucky enough to get caught out by the airline's staff are charged a fee of up to €75 (£65) for bringing luggage that is larger than they paid for while booking their journey. 6 The passenger was left hitting the door where the other passengers were waiting to board Credit: Facebook/Nikolay Stefanov

'UK's poshest Greggs' is in Grade II listed building and steeped in history

Greggs is one of the UK's most beloved fast food chains, and fans of the eatery are just realising there's a particularly 'posh' branch in a 300-year-old building There's nothing quite like sinking your teeth into a Greggs pastry while you're rushing about, or grabbing one of their sandwiches or coffees from the beloved sausage roll emporium for your lunch. Devotees love it for being affordable and dependable - and you can spot its distinctive blue, white and yellow Greggs branding from miles away. ‌ But this particular branch in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, appears rather different and has been crowned "the poshest" Greggs in Britain. This extraordinary branch sits within a 17th century Grade II* listed structure and is frequently hailed as the most beautiful Greggs across the nation. ‌ The heritage building's facade features timber panelling and merges Victorian, Georgian, Tudor and 1930s architectural elements. ‌ Back in the 1700s, it launched as a grocer and tea merchant, which remained in business until the 1960s. Today, it houses Britain's beloved bakery chain. Until recently, the outlet was covered in scaffolding as part of an 18-month restoration scheme. This work is now finished: the building's front has been reconstructed whilst numerous windows have been renewed and sections of the roof have been fixed. On Reddit, the outlet was christened "the country's poshest Greggs". ‌ This week, a TikTok user posted footage of the establishment and declared: "Sorry but this is the poshest Greggs I've ever seen." Greggs responded to the clip, saying: "RIP Henry VIII you would have loved Bury St Edmunds Greggs." ‌ Someone else remarked: "That isn't a Greggs. That's a Gregorys." Another said: "It's like Greggs and Wetherspoons had a baby." Another person concurred, observing: "That ain't Greggs that's Gregory's tavern for the whimsical." "I just know people eating sausage rolls with their pinky's out," one user quipped. Another likened the place to "Greggs if it was in a fantasy world." ‌ A local resident chimed in: "I grew up in that town. Everybody called it bakers oven cause that's what it was called before Greggs took it over." "I kind of like the fact they've not changed the outside of the building too much," said one other. "Love Bury Greggs," another fan declared. "If only every Greggs looked like that," added one other. In other food news, a woman recently tried a"secret" coffee shop at Buckingham Palace but was floored by the price. Another food lover tried the "UK's most expensive sandwiches" from Harrods and shared her review. Do you have a story? Get in touch at

People are just realizing they've been using Stanley Cups all wrong

Although a Stanley Cup seems like it would have a pretty straightforward owner's manual, fans of the cult classic are finally taking a look at tips to use the product - and realize they have been drinking from it all wrong. A TikToker recently shared online that when he looked at the care instructions, he realized he's never preheated or cooled his water bottle. Oliver posted a video to the platform with his blue Stanley Cup and informed his followers that they had to preheat or precool the water bottle before filling it up with their favorite beverage. He explained that to get the best experience out of the popular water bottle, the cup should be filled first with hot or cold water, left to sit out for a few minutes, and then emptied before the beverage is poured in. 'If you own one of these - nine times out of ten, you're using it wrong,' Oliver said, with his bright blue Stanley Cup in hand. He explained that he found the instructions and was about to throw them away when he saw the little-known tip. Oliver was shocked to read the tip and asked his followers if anyone was preheating or precooling their Stanley Cups. 'We don't read contracts for home or car purchases... we definitely ain't reading Stanley directions,' one commenter joked. 'Stanley need to pay you because no one in America reads manuals or directions,' another joked. 'I guess that's what we get for buying things that are 'trendy!' lol,' a third added. However, some said that they did similar processes with their water bottles, as one noted, 'I have a yeti and do this every use! Makes it hotter or colder longer.' 'I fill it with ice and put it in the fridge overnight before adding my water. And the ice won't melt for at least 3 days,' another shared. Some commenters even went as far as slamming Stanley Cup for not creating a better product. 'Those things are $50. They need to use better materials. That's insane,' one said. 'That's crazy, you gotta activate the cup smh [shaking my head],' a second joked. Despite the surprise of many, the owner's manual for Stanley Cups does advise customers to preheat or precool their bottle before filling it up with liquids. The manual states that to get the best performance for hot or cold retention, customers should 'Preheat or precool your vacuum bottle, mug, or food jar by filling it with warm or cold tap water. Let stand for five minutes. 'Empty the bottle and immediately fill with your favorite hot or cold beverage. Lastly, secure the stopper and lid as quickly as possible to avoid heat loss.'
