TikTokkers share their ‘evacuation hauls’ amid LA wildfire disaster: Passports, Taylor Swift tour merch saved from deadly blazes
NY Post
This isn’t your typical TikTok haul.
As the wildfires in Los Angeles continue to rage, evacuees are taking to social media to share their “evacuation hauls,” showing viewers what they before leaving their houses.
While some people only grabbed the necessities — such as a change of clothes, toiletries and important documents — other “hauls” were a bit less practical.
Creator Sydney Sims revealed that she only had minutes to pack valuables and instinctively grabbed her merch from Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour.
“When you had 10 minutes to pack and evacuate the LA fires and didn’t know what to bring so you just stuffed a bag with Eras Tour merch,” she wrote.
Fellow evacuee Marlee Loiben posted a clip of her and her friends admitting what they threw into their bags that were “too valuable to burn,” which included items such as designer purses, personal devices and jewelry. Her pal, Izzy, revealed she packed a collection of knick-knacks, her grandma’s 1850 first communion booklet and her Eras Tour friendship bracelets.
