i hear you spiderman.
maybe you could eliminate the bag of groceries.
if you visit aruba at least once a year i would recommend storing stuff at timeshare storage. if you are willing to not have some summer clothes at home, timeshare storage would be an option to save on luggage fees.

I have my wife and two daughters travelling to Aruba and every year we try to take only what we need. But you would rather have too much than not enough especially since we are there for two weeks. Plus to cut down on grocery shopping, we take one suitcase of food, to stock the kitchen at our timeshare.
