Vina Bottle Tote With Extra Storage

I have two, stainless-steel bottles that I take to work everyday; one for coffee and the other for water.

I needed something to carry these bottles in, so I tried this cheap Neoprene wine bottle bag, I found on Amazon.

(Note: I receive NO money for items bought from Amazon, linked to this page.)

I use this one for water.

And this one's for coffee.

This is the cheap Neoprene bag, I don't use anymore.

Cheap is the operative word here, because it wasn't long before the bag ripped, and started falling apart.

Then I discovered this Vina, 2 Bottle Wine Tote on Amazon, and decided to give it a try.

(It even comes with a handy corkscrew, which I have no use for.)

I decided to take advantage of this space, to facilitate carrying a few extra items I might need from day-to-day.

I attached some Command Velcro Strips on the inside of the lid, and then on the items I wanted to carry.

So, from left to right, I have a USB cable for charging my phone, a mini Altoids tin retrofitted to hold a USB flash drive, a 12 volt USB charger (which fits nicely in the corkscrew holder), and finally my Bluetooth camera remote.

The front of the bag also has a slender pocket that's not good for holding much, but you can put a few skinny items in it.

Like my battery charger.

And my RFID blocking, minimalist wallet, which contains my driver license, debit card, and the ALL important library card (knowledge is power).
