I actually can find these cheaper i belive at walmarts (though i think the dollar tree sells these on occasion when they get them in), but still worth the price. Assorted sizes are good for different cuts of course, but these are so easy to peel than most others brands are. Definately a must in any home.

I don't know why Curad refers to their band-aids as "ouchless". `Cuz when I rip one o' these bad-boys off, it stings pretty bad! Especially if the wound you're coverin' up is surrounded by a decent amount of body hair! Great, now I've got a little rectangular-shaped bald spot on my arm. Now I know how the ladies feel about the ol' wax-and-rip dealy with leg hair... yowch!

But even though I find their "ouchless" claim somewhat fraudulent, I've discovered that pullin' off a Curad don't hurt quite as much as a Band-Aid would. And Curads almost never leave behind any kind of adhesive residue, unlike Band-Aids (sheesh, what do those guys at Johnson & Johnson use for adhesive-- tree sap?!).

But my favorite feature on Curads are the pull-apart tabs that make opening up the bandage package very convenient. I've always been annoyed by the little red string in Band-Aids, `cuz it'd almost invariably break off before I got it halfway down the length of the package. With Curads, just pull apart the two tabs, and voila! Just be sure not to open one of these up too quickly, or else you run the risk of sending your little cut-coverup flying!

And not only is the opening of a Curad much more convenient compared to its biggest competitor, it's also a somewhat entertaining experience. Find a remote part of your domecile that's good `n' dark, and watch the little static electricity show! Just make sure you close up the rubbing alcohol bottle before you proceed. Better safe than sorry!
