Late-night CVS Run
13 Jul
This is the amount of things I have to buy in an effort to distract the man behind the counter from noticing the yeast infection medication. Some notes:
I buy CVS brand because when it says “compare to Monistat, First Response etc. I believe them wholeheartedly.
Jim and I really have been talking about getting one of these velcro ball sets for the beach.
CVS brand Animal Crackers are incredible.
I figured I might as well pick up the tests while I’m there.
The fire has been put out…for now. Damn antibiotics.
If you’re a man, I apologize.
Too funny!
I once bought a CVS brand pregnancy test (long time ago) and it came up with NO result.
And yes, I then had to go back to the store and buy another test. That time I splurged for the name brand.
At our CVS, there’s always this one ancient woman working behind the counter who is always quite vocal about my purchases. If you were at her CVS, this is how it would’ve gone,
“Oh, honey you don’t to waste your money on that Monistats for your vagina. Wash it up good with sum witche’s hazel and that pesky itch will be gone in two days is all…
oooh, lord i love me summa dees crunchy animal cookies. They’s not crackers if they’s not salty…
blah blah blah good luck taking your pregnancy test…hope you get the answer you beez lookin for….
blah blah
that’ll be sixty-two fifty please
and
tank
you”
Oh God, thank you for the laugh. I have SO been there. For some reason I used to (and prolly still would) get all flustered and 15 about buying condoms. As if someone was going to call my mom and rat me out.
CVS animal crackers are good.
The blank PG test happened to me in April! I took one, got a positive, took another to be sure and it was blank! If I didn’t have another, I would have probably crashed the car on the way to CVS. And those were first response! So I guess you just get duds. Like Christmas lights.
Stephanie, I was under the impression that they were told not to talk about what you purchased! Now I am even more frightened!
SeekingClarav, glad someone is on board with the animal crackers!
I’ve had more than one cashier make embarrasing comments about things I’ve bought in the past that I was (then) worried about (condoms, medications, etc.) It’s very uncomfortable! So I don’t blame you for buying all that at all.
next time you need to go the opposite route. buy something that’s way more embarassing than yeast infection medication. load up on jock itch creme, tough actin’ Tinactin, condoms in GIANT size, 12 bottles of “personal” liquid, etc. the medication will totally go unnoticed.
even though the checker will think you’re a total weirdo, you’ll know the truth. you’re just paranoid.
