+3.

I hate the newer packaging.  I had to almost literally shred one wrapper recently to get the freakin' band-aid.

I'll be happy when all the Band-Aids are made of fabric. The plastic do not stick.

I'm still looking for the Looney Tunes Band-Aids. All I can find is Spongebob.
Islamic sex dolls.  Do they blow themselves up?

3M NexCare bandaids are pretty much the only kind I use these days.  Much, much better than the regular kind.

My wife and I wear the Walgreens generic brand of Breathe-Right nasal strips to keep from snoring. The adhesive on the clear ones works, but on the flesh colored it doesn't. I'll wake up in the middle of the night and wonder why the nasal strip is stuck to the nightstand or somewhere else.

The other night I awoke to go to the bathroom. I was sitting in there looking at the bandage on my hand, and thinking that in the morning I should change it out for a fresh one. Then it occurred to me that I didn't have any cut on my hand. It was a nasal strip.

OK, now back to the regularly scheduled band-aid discussion.

You try to open the stringless ones, and half the time you end up ripping the pull-away tabs on the Band-Aid itself, then you can't get that part off and you have to throw it away and start over.

I think it's a marketing ploy:  "We don't care how much you use.  We only care how much you buy."

I've been seeing more and more products based on that philosophy.

Odd....I found it the other way around with name-brand & Wal-Mart brand strips....the fleshy ones would stick solid & the clear ones fell off at the slightest disturbance....we must have different body chemistry....  =|
