					If you have a sporran chain/belt, you may be halfway there.  Go to the Salvation Army or Thrift Store, find an old leather purse you like, and take it to your local shoe repairman and have him modify it into a sporran.  Should work fine for a day sporran.

	The Thistle & Shamrock has closed their brick and morter store.  They do still have their web site.  You could call them at 800-838-6753 and see if you can pick one up somewhere there.  Otherwise, there is a place in Colorado Springs that is open and does have sporrans, Celtic Mercantile, 2626 W. Colorado.  Phone is 719-471-7420

	Good advise... I have done this myself several time.  Most hotels will hold parcels for you being a registered guest and Jerry is amazingly fast

					Go to the Coeur D'Alene National Forest.
 Get a big, pointy stick.
 
 Use that stick to kill a grizzly bear.
 
 Skin that dead bear.
 
 Make your own sporran.
