First Aid For Less

posted in home |

This is a compensated post written by me on behalf of Walgreens. All opinions are 100% mine.

Around our house, we use a lot of adhesive bandages for first aid.  There are the typical nicks and cuts that require treatment and protection, but my husband and daughter both have issues with their nail cuticles on their fingers.  They both uses bandages wrapped around their finger tips to protect their cuticles, almost every day.  This means adhesive bandages are purchased in our home almost as often as we buy milk.  And, just like when I purchase milk, I look for quality and fair pricing.

Recently I received a box of Walgreen’s Brand Adhesive Bandages to try out and, in exchange, I said I would give my honest feedback on their product.  So, here are my opinions of the Walgreens Brand Adhesive Bandages, part of the Walgreens Brand Health & Wellness Products .

I found the Walgreen’s Brand Adhesive Bandages work as well as any name brand of bandage we’ve ever used in our first aid kit.  The bandages were comfortable and protected the wounds that were being treated, better than I expected.  To my surprise, when I did a little online shopping, I discovered that the price of the Walgreen’s Brand Adhesive Bandages is more than a full $1 cheaper than some of the name brand products.   With our current family budget, that is a HUGE deal!

I haven’t yet tried other Walgreen’s Brand Health & Wellness products, but I certainly plan to based on my experience with the bandages.   Why should I spend more of my hard earned money for the same quality product, not to mention that they are all pharmacist recommended products and come with a satisfaction guarantee.

In addition to being quality made products, the purchase of every Walgreens Brand Health & Wellness Products helps to bring preventative wellness services through the  Walgreens Way to Well Fund™to which Walgreen’s contributes up to $3 million annually. This fund helps provide preventative health screenings to local communities.

    I know what you mean about the value of these! My children thankfully don’t have cuticle issues, but they do seem to treat bandages and sticky plasters as toys. It’s no good hiding them as then I can’t find them when they do get cuts or bruises.
