10 cent Tampons! 15/11/10

* Just wanted to share this little story for a bit of morning humor that is much needed today…I originally wrote this post on November 5th, 2007 but am pleased to report, after checking, my Barnes & Noble STILL offers .10 tampons in 2010! LOL!

So I’m in Barnes & Noble you know that big box book store with the big comfy chairs and delicious Starbucks…yeah you know the one.

I get that, hmmm I think I may need a tampon feeling. Yeah you know that one too! I of course have everything else in my bag, EXCEPT that. I ask my mom who is having a coffee with me and by coffee I mean a tall, non-fat white chocolate mocha WITH whip (my usual order). She of course has one left and I take it from her. I proceed to the ladies room and do my thing and while washing my hands, I eye the “candy” machine. You know the one that provides “napkins” or “tampons”….LOL napkins seriously, anyway I decide that since my mom was so kind as to give me her last purse backup I will jokingly get her one from the candy machine. So I’m digging around the bottom of my bag for a quarter when I see the $.10 sign!

I think WOW bonus only $.10!? and REALLY??

That is way cheap so I not only get one, I proceed to dig out more dimes and get THREE more backups!! Two for my mom and two for me! Woo hoo score I’m laughing about it all now and my excitement for a $.10 tampon….In reflection I would gladly pay the $.25 for one with a plastic applicator! Ha!

At least you know where to get a cheap backup though right? …
