DON'T spend unnecessary money checking a bag for your trip.
Known as the "folding queen," Lennia McCarter posted a video sharing her technique for making the most out of your carry-on luggage.
To make as much room as possible, McCarter folds her clothing items one inside of the other.
First, she folded a pair of pants, and then folded a shirt around them.
Her technique uses much less space than if you were to fold each item serpately.
McCarter then rolls up the folded clothing items, creating a small, tube-like shape.
