Most on this website probably already knew this trick but I didn't so I'm posting in case it helps someone else like me.
During my LT hike I mentioned to another hiker that the only camp chore I didn't like was taking so long to blow up my neoair pad. She noticed that I already was carrying a compactor trash bag and suggested I search youtube because there is a way to inflate the neoair with the trash bag. I didn't initially find it on a quick search but yesterday I was thinking about my hike and searched again and found this youtube video. I tried it out and it works great. I love that it's so simple and requires no extra gear.
