Always Pads
Does anyone else use the brand "Always" for their pads? I think they're the cheapest so my mom gets me the value pack from costco and it basically lasts me the whole year. Anyways, I think they improved on their structural design because I can wrap them easier now. I just think it's great that they worked on this, just earlier today I wrapped one up like a sushi roll it was so aesthetically pleasing and it gave me so much inner peace, bc trust me I used to STRUGGLE they wouldn't stick and would get all wonky. Anyways, let me know what pads or tampons y'all use and any potential changes you'd like to see.

Always is the one I swear by. It's cheap but it sticks well, doesn't move around, and absorbs well. I've tried other brands that are supposed to be more comfortable, more absorbent, etc but I always come back to Always.
I use the CVS brand. For what they’re used, I don’t need to spend that much money.
I buy the thin ones, and I’ve always rolled them up with toilet paper and they’ve always rolled up nicely.
1) this one time in high school I went to the nurse's office to get a pad. now it's free but even though it wasn't THAT long ago I had to pay for it lol but anyways its was a THICK pad, a little bit thicker than a iphone maybe. I've only ever used the ultra thin always pads from costco so this one felt sooooo cushion-y and nice. I remember wanting to go back and get some more before I graduated but I forgot.
2) my sis' university has a free pad/tampon dispenser in her school bathrooms so she brought home these 100% cotton pads. the felt very soft and smooth, these pads don't have a scratchy netting like the always pads and don't make a crunchy plastic noise. those pads' texture were literally indistinguishable from my undies when I'm wearing them
