OMG......that's almost a dollar a tampon. disney tampons must have some sort of special powers or something. let me know if you figured out what that is! if it's worth the $15 i may stop by and buy some myself.

my aunt ALWAYS wants to visit on vacations too. luckily, i can control that because i'm on birth control pills. i always figure out if she's coming while i'm on vacation and if so, i just skip my sugar pills the month before and start a new pack early and it makes my aunt's visit the next month a week early!

i have a funny story about being uncomfortable while buying feminine products. once i had a problem - won't go into the gory details because i know men are reading this and wincing - anyway, my doctor called in a one-day cure for me and i sent ray to pick it up. well, the pharmacy was out of that medication, so ray called me and told me and i told him to just get the over-the-counter stuff instead, the strongest they had so i could take care of it quicker. the pharmacist (an older man) decided he'd help ray find the right product and accompanied him to "THE" aisle and started explaining the differences and how when his wife has this problem she does this, that and the other, and doesn't wear underwear to bed!!!! can you say too much information??????? THEN this really healthy, well-fed woman comes over to the same aisle and starts checking out the contraceptives for men. ray said it was the worst moment of his life. just proves that he really does love me!

OMG $15 tampons. I can only imagine what Aunt Betty would have to say about that. The whole gift shop would have had to hear about it. She probally would have told the whole lobby too.

I can't wait for another update with pictures. I just think you have the cutest family.

For those of you who are squirmy and the first mention of femine hygene products...........run while you can!!


I have an annoying aunt who likes to ruin all my vacations........I purposefully planned my wedding for 1 week after her monthly visit, but she was late and didn't show up till the morning of. She decided to tag along a little early this month....... So we stoped by the gift shop at ASMU on our way back to the room.

I located the shelf where I had bought my benadryl the year before.....just as I was reaching for the tampax , a elderly cm came up and asked if I need help.

Nope..I got this covered.........

He just stood there, right next to me! It was a strage experience. He even asked if I had any questions about the products!

After what felt like an eternity, he left to go creep out another unsuspecting customer.

I grabed what I needed and made a beeline for the cashier. When she told me the total, I couldn't believe it!! $15 bucks for 16 tampons!!!
For a split second I thought maybe I'd found another use for those towel animals............. Seriously, I can buy a 3 month suply for that amount of money.

As I was walking back to my room all I could think was.........these and better have some serious pixie dust in them!!!

Thanks for this little tip about buying necessities at the resort gift shops. I have to remember to pack my own!!!

OMG, $15 TAMPONS??!!! That's CRAZY!!!! And the man standing next to you asking questions made me laugh out loud. Sometimes there is such a thing as a little too much help.

They were MAGIC.

They were MAGIC.

It's all I could think of that would be "G" rated...

Ewww spooky

Oh Cherie

just proves that he really does love me!

Poor Ray

 

[wirki]

I think maybe the CM was hitting on You know maybe he wanted someone that he could still have kids with j/k

It sounds like Disney is making a killing on those items. I know I forgot Desitin once and it about $10-15 for a small tube.

Note to self....bring "girly" items even if not expecting!!

 

[englishrose47]

Cherie your "Aunt's "visit was hilarious and I guess as it happened at Disney you will count this as an UPDATE!!

 

[MRYPPNS]

I'm just thankful that there wasn't any pictures with this update!

 

[whogirl'smom]

Good grief, a cab ride to Walgreen's would have been cheaper!

[Tanya90210]

about the Creepy CM ... eekto the prices... we noticed that last year when we went to get something that was generally cheap... I forget what.... so we do a walgreens run if it's not a souvie heh

 

[tinkermamaof2]

I've paid the same outrageous prices in Mexico...The only difference...Viagra was available right next to it on the shelf. That makes no sense to me, but it's funny at the same time. What woman in her right mind would want to see THOSE two products together! I agree that you were definately ripped off. Disney prices are high enough, why gouge on neccesities. Can't wait to hear more about your trip!

I'm glad you all enjoyed that! I was a little worried about it being TMI!

Ok, this just brought me back to being 17 and in KMart with my mom and grandma.......My grandma was very old fashioned an believed that if you used tampons you were no longer a virgin. My mom told me to go and grab the one's I wanted, which led to a quite loud discussion.......in the middle of Kmart.........about what does and does not make you a virgin! I was scarred for life from that!

I did think about posing Flat Jordan with the box..........but I decided to be nice!
I would have loved to see Aunt Betty in that situation!

I think that's where disney makes most of it's money.

If only I had been on meds at the time............maybe I would have asked him some questions......
