The most expensive band aid

I'm not sure if anybody else experiences this problem, but if I don't wear my Doc Marten boots continuously for a year or so they rub when I start to wear them again. I wear my cherry boots everyday, and I've been wearing them to work as well. I wanted to start wearing my purple boots instead so my cherry ones wouldn't get yucky from work. I wore them last week and they rubbed all day and I got a big sexy blister from them. So I went to the shops the other day to buy some bigger material patch band aids. I was in a hurry and quickly grabbed the ones I wanted and some tea, paid for them, threw the receipt in the bin on the way out and went home. I had to work early the next morning, and before I put my stockings on, I went to put band aids on so I could start wearing my purple boots and break them in again. I open the box, and there is only ONE band aid in it! One! I paid $3 for one band aid. And because I had already discarded the receipt, I couldn't even take them back. Things like that should not happen before 7 am.

    What, that's ridiculous! I would also be mad, especially if it was before 7! I hope this was a phenomenal band-aid, for $3...

    Boo! Such an expensive bandaid! I work at a major supermarket and we give refunds without the receipt 99.9% of the time - I don't know if that helps! I love it when Doc Martens finally reach that perfect moulded-to-your-foot-no-blistery stage. May your purple Docs reach that stage with haste!

    It really annoyed me that morning, but I went to work and told the girls I was working with and laughed about it so it didn't bother me. I went back to the shops and just bought another box so it was out of the way and I wouldn't stew over it. I didn't want to go back and complain because if that was the worst thing to happen to me in a day, I think I'm going alright!

    Woahhh that's the world's most expensive band-aid! I have the same problem with my Docs, they are very lovely and but very painful. I couldn't sell them even if I wanted to because there are blood stains on the inside of them from extreme blisters. lol gross. ALSO thank you for your nice comments on my blog! I turned 23 on the 4th December. Happy birthday for the 6th! :)
