Even a short jaunt, which is what most of us will taking if traveling this summer, means packing a bag. (Or two.) If you're flying, you're likely going to want to pack small, so as not to check luggage. But we don't always have our eyes on our bags, and trackers can help us locate them whether they're coming down a luggage carousel or packed into an overhead bin.

These five trackers are particularly excellent for fitting into a piece of luggage or getting attached to the outside of a bag. They work either on 2G cellular or Bluetooth, and are all under $40 — some much less than that. So whether you're heading for a road trip, or a short flight, consider adding one of the tags to your bag, so you have one less thing to keep focused on while traveling this year.
