Gretchen (Season 7) once said in an interview that after they were stripped of all belongings, she could still keep the tampons she brought. So yes, they do (or at least should) pack them themselves.

penalty in keep on racing leg
In TAR Asia 4 leg 7, Hussein & Natasha got 4 hours penalty for not completed their RB task, they serviced their penalty at leg 7 pitstop before Allan Wu handed them next clue
In TAR Australia 2 leg 7 Joseph & Grace also got 2 hours penalty for removing a teams' bags from a taxi, they serviced their penalty at leg 7 pitstop before Grant Bowler handed them next clue
In TAR 18 (UB) leg 4 Kent & Vyxsin got 2 hours penalty for not book a the assigned flight, but they serviced their penalty in leg 5 rather than leg 4

I am also curious about this inconsistency. ??? Perhaps this rule in the US version is the only one differing from the rule in the Int'l versions. Jeck & RR of TAR Ph 2 also incurred a penalty at the end of Leg 5 (and not Leg 6) for not being able to perform a task in Leg 5 for safety reasons.
Marionete:
How long of a penalty did Kent & Vyxsin get?
I'm speculating this difference in rule application may simply have been due to production requiring Phil to get ahead of the first teams. :tup:

Considering the break between the double leg in China during TAR18 was shorter than the others mentioned, this is possible. After all, the other mentioned penalty were at least 2 hours. The one Kynt & Vyxsin had was just 30 minutes.
