I've just found out I can by on one for a week(thanks to BA kindly keeping my luggage and then sending it on its own holiday to Milan)
Ive lost a lot of weight (which is another thread altogether ) so have already got 6 new bikinis ready to go to show off the new much slimmer me. Think ill leave it at that though, probably wont wear half of them anyway.

I usually like to take one in each colour xD I'm probably just gonna take 6 this year, if we go away for a week.
hi i took about 6-7 last yr for 10 days cant remember how many i took at new yr for a week think it was about 5 were goin for two weeks this year, ill look to see what condition the others are in i brought last year and decide if there ready for the bin or not, think ill treat myself to 1 or 2 new ones, but im terible at throwing clothes away, always seem to think i might wear that next week or whatever even though havnt worn it for ages my boyfriend goes mad lol as i have no space. i did have a clear out last month though and threw a few things away half a bin bag.

well i bought another one so thats 4 i`ve bought this year.. i may have to go down to taking 14 this year 
cos the kids are getting older and their clothes are bigger so they take up more room in the suitcase...but i may find a few spaces here and there for a few more

i have got 4 new ones, plus 3 from last year.....i like to alternate between halter neck and shoulder straps, so i dont get a sun strap marks
.But they tag along for the ride just in case i feel confident 
i guess the answer is take 3 or 4 which are different, i.e shape and size/ halter neck, strapless/bandeau, and normal. or better still two in the type that can be worn any style..............
happy days.

shazza no need to skimp on bikinis. As your kids are older, give them the responsibility of having their own case!

we already take 2 large and 1 medium sized cases so can`t add anymore. especially as one of the large ones always has the Heavy tag put on it.. just had an idea
wonder if i could put some in the hand luggage. they don`t take up a lot of room so i may just get away with it..

Shazza, if you don't already do this...
roll up your bikini's (and any underwear) and stuff them inside any shoes, bags etc that are in your case.
They take up no room that way, and they weigh next to nothing so no need to worry on that score.

I feel quite inadequate....am only taking 2 bikinis for a 2 week holiday. I don't see the point of taking any more. Just wash well daily and there you go. As we are away for a fortnight we will do several trips and go out and about so probably won't wear a bikini every day.
Also spent nearly £45 on one as wanted a really special good fitting one from Freya so that blew the budget!!!!!!

I also take tubes of travel wash and one of these Travel stretchy washing lines with me (both bought in Asda), will pack 10 pegs two!!!
Will go out to the nearest supermarket and try to find small bottle of fabric conditioner though (hope they have fabric conditioner in Hammamet!)
I like to wash out sand and suncare stuff from bikini's and beachwear as some of the oils can stain clothing

A bit 
but we were so lucky because the apartment we stayed in last year (and going to again this year) had
a washing machine.
Of course, when it came to any ironing - they did their own stuff themselves.
Like Rebel, I have a few bikini's, and they come on holiday every year.
And every year they come back unworn. (Don't want to frighten people in / round the pool! )

linzilou,
New Look have some Polka dot bikinis in at the mo, I think they are from the 'kelly Brooke' range, a bit pricey but very nice. I was going to treat myself to one today but didnt have my size
, however I managed to get a lovely multicoloured one in the New Look range at buy one top, get the bottoms free (both for £10), also anyone who is after some shorts just to pull on , ..if going to to the shop etc, they have some jersey type ones with beaded toggles in Matalan in various colours, at that price, you can get a pair of shorts to match each bikini
