and you go to the bathroom at work, do you take your whole purse with you or do you have a mini case for your tampons, pads or whatever you use?
The kotex commercials kinda iritate me with the bright colored tampons because no matter how they design the covers, I'll never feel comfortable just waving one around. I'm not really a fan of their products either.

I just walk with the tampon. I keep it covered by my hand as much as possible with my hand down by my leg. No one pays close enough attention to notice. And even if they do... I don't really think's a big deal. I'm a woman, I have a period, deal with it : )
-
I just stick one in my pocket, and cover it with my shirt if I wasn't using one of the little kotex ones that fit all the way in to my pocket. That's why I liked those best, even with the bright covers -- they are easy to hide in your hand/pocket.
I feel like going to the bathroom with my purse is a declaration to the whole office, "I AM ON THE RAG!"

@ladyfingers: Lol... I feel the same way and dont take my purse to the bathroom unless I am going out of the building once I'm done like on my lunch break
@MamaMoose: I wish I could do that but I'm not brave enough -
I use OB and just store them in a little tea canister (an aluminum one that was designed for 2 tea bags) and put that in my pocket. Sometimes I stick a liner in my pocket. I do not bring my whole purse. I hate when there is no purse hook and don't want to use the bathroom while holding my purse.
-
I put it in my pocket if I have one, or the waistband of my pants or skirt if it is tight enough, or if I'm wearing long sleeves, tuck it up into the sleeve. I would not walk around with it showing, but I also am not THAT careful to make sure it's not. I don't bother bringing my purse usually.
I also hate the Kotex commercials. I don't care what color the wrapper is, I care if it works and if it is comfortable. That said, I usually buy Tampax because that's what I used when I first started.

I'm with @Foodnerd81: in that I tuck it into my waistband with my shirt covering it or up my sleeve if I'm wearing a long sleeved shirt. Bringing my whole purse is pretty much the same as waving around the pad/tampon around in my opinion.
-
I have a semi private bathroom at work, so in the morning I'll bring a bag with my items and put it in the bathroom under the sink. If I forget to do that, I put it in my pocket instead and try to put my arm over any part that may be sticking out.
-
My work provides pads and tampons for free in the bathroom, thank goodness!
BTW - what's up with those tampons with resealable wrapping?? Who is resealing a tampon applicator? To use later? What am I missing?
-
I do the same thing as @Foodnerd81: &@Alivoo01: I stick it in my pocket or waistband. I've even stuck it in my bra before. I never take my whole purse.
-
I'm an up the sleeve in the pocket person. I never bring my whole bag in with me unless I'm doing my makeup or getting changed.
-
I put it in my pocket or up my sleeve
-
I stick a tampon in my pocket, too.
-
I do the same thing as @Foodnerd81. I don't feel comfortable flashing it for the world to see, but I also don't like taking my whole bag/purse into the bathroom w/me.
-
@Rachel: I put the applicator back in the pkg after I've inserted the tampon. Perhaps that's why it's resealable?
-
@Grace: haha I can't believe I didn't think of that, I do the same thing! The commercial made me think they wanted you to seal it up and take it with you.
-
I do the same as others - the waistband or sleeve trick.
I also only buy the tampax cardboard applicators - then I can flush those and the wrapper! win win.
-
I put it in my pocket or do the sleeve trick. Or I might want to fix my make-up, too, so I'll put it in there.
-
I never carried my whole bag into the bathroom, that would look silly, considering my bag was huge!
I had a small bag I used for tampons, I'd carry that.
