I don't. They are too expensive and too often tacky. My photos are my treasures from a trip. But if I did travel more, maybe I would have a collection like usable shot glasses or something.

Not really. Depends on where I'm going. Sometime I might buy a t-shirt or something useful, but not the ticky tacky souvenirs.

I might buy a shirt....that's about it. I will buy something while on a trip, but it's usually not anything I couldn't have gotten at home.

I'll buy the typical postcard or shot glass...but that's about it. Yeah, my pictures are the souvenirs from my trips.

No, I travel light and don't bring back more luggage than I left with.
Here is about the only souvenires I've bought.
On a cruise a few years ago I got a cloth wallet in Caymen. It wore out but I got an exact replacement in Nassau. Both were made in China.
My boss brings me these things from her trips that I don't want need or even keep. A little dish from Espana, a pen with gold flakes in it from Alaska and now a little doll bobby from London. They are in a junk drawer - all made in China BTW.
OH, I'm due for another Caribbean Cruise. My cloth wallet is wearing out.

I don't too much bother with airport gift shops, but whenever I travel, I always wind up going shopping and buying something. Sometimes it's reflective of the area, but usually it's something general.

We used to do that a lot, still do on occasion, but not as much as we used to.
