Frugal = cheap
I have admittedly done some cheap-ass things to save money. I’ve gotten backaches from sitting at the kitchen table clipping coupons. I’ve suffered foot pain walking from one end of a mall to the other to save $1 on a kitchen towel. I’ve even washed and reused plastic storage bags and aluminum foil. And, I would have never admitted any of this if I had not found people who beat me by far in the stingy/cheapass department.
These are selling on eBay.
Without further comment, I present…..
TAA DAAAA……REUSABLE MENSTRUAL PADS
(This one can put some dance in your pants….hee hee)
The BALLERINA pad set you are bidding on includes 1 liner and 3 pads featuring a cotton print backed in pink cotton flannel:
Pads have additional thick cotton layer inside.
Liner has reliable snap and sewn-in pink ribbon bands for securing pads. Liner holds up to three pads. Snap-around wings help protect panties.
Choose your own thickness: Stack liners up to desired thickness. Separable pad layers are quicker and easier to wash and dry than a single multi-layer pad. Pads and liners can be used alone as pantyliners or light-day pads.
How ’bout a hippo in your Hanes……

How ’bout some flip-flops covering your cooter? Awwww……just like being at the beach for your whole period!The pad has a snap closure made of poly-resin. These snaps have been applied using an industrial KAM snap press.
(industrial strength?…..this is some serious poontang protection!)
Bubblegum??????? Is it just me or does the thought of bubblegum anywhere near your coochie give you a nauseated feeling? Although, this creator may have hit on a new idea. Bubblegum could work to stop your womanly flow. Just the bubblegum….not the pad.
What a resourceful seller, too. Looking for that gift for your hard to buy for mother-in-law, best friend, bridesmaids…..?

Hmmmmmmm…….I’ve got this sneaky feeling that Al Gore is behind this……….



All this time I thought my mom was lying about these things! I figured they were just one of her back when I grew up in the depression stories!

I’m actually going to give these to EVERYONE in my office at Christmas – male, female, tranny – I don’t care. This is the best invention since the George Foreman Grill!
I made one for myself out of masking tape and paper towels and am wearing right now, just in case I have to pee and don’t feel like going to the bathroom.
“Girl, will you go to the bathroom with me? I need to wring out my pad.”
