Are compression packing cubes worth it?

I’m a packing cube convert despite thinking they were silly until I tried them myself. So I may be having a similar failure of imagination about compression cubes but I’m really not seeing it.

They seem to squeeze around the edges, but just bulge around the middle anyway so they don’t look like they save space unless you’re going to poke socks and pants into the edge spaces?

Are they better than I think?

And what other packing hacks do you swear by?

I’m distracting myself from work tomorrow by mentally packing for summer holidays.

I don’t think so. Luckily mine were cheap so I don’t mind so much that they were a waste of money.
