It's pretty weird to be basically shilling for brands in here but Nexcare bandages are superior to band-aids in pretty much every way; i agree that band-aids beat generic though

You a paid rep? No? Then you're not shilling, you're sharing a positive experience with $whatever. And that's a good thing. Helps us all.

Can I make a plug for Curad bandaids? So much better than band aid brand and you can get all the available sizes in fun colors. I may be an adult, but I'd like a bright orange band-aid on my skinned elbow thank you

Bang for the buck though? Meh, you gotta use more Curad to get the wound over with, but they're cheap and not nearly as shitty as the generic shit.

Still. Mediocre.
