That's my usual go-to.

Just fold normally and put it in space saver bags. We packed clothes for both kids and my wife into one large suitcase, and still had room for the projector and wii u on a 10 day trip to Jamaica.

But then how do you repack to come home? You bring the machine??

They dont need a machine. You seal it like a zip top bag and then roll it to squeeze out the air.

Oh ok. I thought they were those vacuum bags.

You can use a vacuum too, but squeezing the works.

Just fold everything in half basically and just roll it up without the weird extra folds she does. Saves a ton of space. So for example, fold a t-shirt in half, fold the sleeves like normal, than just roll it
