Fever has a segment up from the TV Guide channel preview about some of the luxury items that were brought.

Voice Over:

Amber: Though the castaways have to rely on their own wit and strength, they are allowed one small thing to help them along, the treasured luxury item.

TVG: Sometimes they are useful, sometimes sentimental, other times they just alleviate boredom. One thing is for sure, the luxury item makes the Survivors' journey a little less stressful. This year's crop is bringing their family along.

Travis: My luxury item is a picture of me and my wife and my children.

Rory: I'm bringing a picture of my family and I use that not so much for the home sickness as more for my focus of why I'm here.

TVG: Not every contestant got to bring their first, second or even ninth luxury pick.

Elisa: My first, like, 10 choices for my luxury item got rejected. But I finally got one approved. I brought a manicure kit.

Twila: I wanted to bring my mom's quilt. It would have meant a lot to me but they considered that to be too much of a luxury item. They allowed me to bring a picture of my family.

Ami: I wanted to bring a surf board but they wouldn't allow me to bring a surf board so I asked for a boogie board.

Lea: It has to be something with your personality. The one thing that it came down to was my love for my country so I brought an American flag.

Julie: Two baseball gloves and a softball. That could be interesting, a weapon? I can get things down out of trees.

Scout: I brought my nose flute. A flute I play with my nose. It's indigenous to the Fijian Islands and Hawaii. I think it'll be a nice sound out here.

Chris: They threw me in the sand with no food, no water, no pillow. If I can't have any of them three, I don't need a luxury item.

Scout brought a nose flute? The jokes could be endless for this...so I won't mention it!

Chris didn't bring an item? Or was he just joking?

Also, I wonder why they didn't tell everyone's item?

I thought the luxury item is usually listed on the contestant's page on the CBS site, but I don't see them there.

I wonder why the caps Fever put up don't seem to match the voice over.

I had thought in past seasons the item was listed on their bio page. However, after seeing your post, I checked. They are not listed. Also, there hasn't really been a big deal made of them over the past couple of seasons or have I missed something? Which could be because lately I have no memory!

Your memory is fine, vols -- they didn't have luxury items on Pearl Islands, and I don't think they had them for All Stars either. I believe they had them for all of the first 6.

Ummm, I didn't realize a manicure kit could feel *this* good?

Vidcaps definitely doesn't match the voiceover, it seems.

Wonder where I could get one of those manicure kits? Maybe they will auction them on Ebay too?RedBeard
