Be forewarned, this is quite girly in nature.
Matchstick.ca chose me to kind of spread the word about O.B. Tampons.
To do that, they sent me a whole gift pack (which I was not expecting)
It’s a good thing I’ll get a chance to use ‘em pretty soon….

OB are my favorite tampons. I was in a rush last time and had to buy some other brand – back to OB for me!!

I love OB although I did have to just yesterday explain to a co-worker how to use it! If those colored items in the photo are cases for the OB’s I’d love to have one and be happy to pay for shipping! Is that what they are?

Just wanted to leave some more love for the carrying cases. They are awesome, and are way better than having tampons floating around my purse. I’m generally not crazy about the no-applicator ones, but their compact size and the nifty holders win out every time.

Eek, no thanks, it’s Tampax for me. It’s too weird for me to use non-applicator ones, and I don’t like the cardboard applicators either so I pay the premium for plastic… (I’m such an evil, anti-environment person, I swear.)
I like the Tampax Compak ones, they’re relatively tiny and I somehow ended up with a cute carrying case for mine.
(Haven’t been able to use it for a while due to lack of purse space, sadly. Will fix that soon!)

Can’t wait to start spreading the OB love with all those little purse packs.

Wow. I just got my first product endorsement gift. A lovely pair of shoes from a site called Solestruck, in exchange for me spreading the news. Whoo-hoo!
Your site is very informative. I enjoy your writing very much.
Keep up the good work.

Haha, that’s funny. I saw those travel size plastic boxes in the target “travel size” aisle. (It’s where you buy the mini toothpaste and such.) I seriously thought about buying one!

I’m pretty chuffed to start trying ‘em out (the travelling cases) because they’re so cute. I’m sure my friends are gonna love it too

Nice, you got your kit too!
I’ve got mine as well and will be offering a link for all the ladies so they can get their own free sample from OB.
Haha I gave away all the little purse packs though, through the wonders of BC I don’t get my period anymore!
They’re awesome, aren’t they? They’re pretty and discreet. I love the gift pack they sent us too
Yay for water bottles of all types!
It’s cool that they’re doing this campaign, but as an ad person I have to wonder about how well they actually researched all of us. We all have the same reader base!

Wow – talk about lots!! I have one of those little cases, the dark blue one ^^
I like o.b. tampons, but only at home where I can obsessively wash my hands before and after. Next to no packaging = happy Rae!

Vanessa: Yes! I can give you the link to them don’t worry – I’ll have one soon so you can get it for free
Rae: I’m obsessive about it too but being in a public washroom doesn’t stop me lol
