New ST owners, how much can you fit in it?

[knaidel]

For all those who own a Sling Tote, can you give us a general idea of how much you can fit in it? What do you usually take with you? How does this compare to other bags you've owned?

Oi. Well, you asked so I'm going to list my contents right now:

Back pocket:
~Huggies disposable changing pad in a zip lock bag
~Various papers (receipts & such)

Inside:
*Smallest elastic rim pocket (there is only one "small" one):
~2 dirty diaper disposal bags
~small zip lock w/disposable bib, table cover & fork
*2nd elastic pocket:
~baby Tylenol, baby comb, travel diaper cream, baby nail clippers, bandaides, small packets of burn cream, baby nail file
*3rd elastic pocket:
~2 size 4 diapers & 1 pull up
*4th elastic pocket:
~wipes
*insulated pocket:
~nothing currently, but a water bottle or sippy usually
*Main compartment:
~pocket size Franklin
~the large Sassy snack bowl w/Cherrios or something
That's all I have in this compartment but there is room for more...probably a change of clothes or a couple toys or something.

Front pocket:
*Big zip compartment:
~more papers/receipts, a few of those really cool new little individual Crystal light type drink mix thingys, a pen, a couple Dove chocolates (cause duh...chocolate! Doesn't everyone carry it around? :D )
*one fleece pocket:
~my cell phone
*2nd fleece pocket:
~currently nothing, occasionally my sun glasses
*the larger part of the front pocket:
~ wallet (small size, not checkbook size)
~keys
~gum
~various lipsticks/glosses/chapsticks & a lip liner
~travel size dental floss
~eye drops (for my contacts)
~travel Aleve
~hey look! More chocolate! :D
~my comb
~a couple of my DD's pony tail holders (cause she never keeps them in)
~my compact
~my security pass for work

WOW! That's it. Now I'm even more impressed with this bag! lol ;)

Thanks for posting that. Can you (or anyone else) tell me which other bags you've owned and how it compares (in terms of how much it holds?)
I just sold my Skip Hop Duo, because I felt like everything was always getting lost in it's tall, narrow frame- does that make sense? Do you think that's an issue with this bag?

Oh, and I agree- chocolate is a VERY IMPORTANT item to carry with you. At all times.

I posted comparison pictures next to my Kecci & LE LT on another thread in this forum (More Fleurville ST pictures). It probably holds as much as my Kecci but I like the ST organization better & definitely holds more that my LT. I do not find it to be difficult to find things in but I cannot compare it to the Skip Hop because I've never owned one of those.
