An easy way to collect travel-sized toiletries is by keeping them while on overnight stays. If your stay is more than one night, request more the second day. Easy peasy. Other items can be purchased from the travel-size section of most stores, including Dollar stores!
There is also an Amazon Wish List that includes most of these items!
