Aug. 5, 2008 - Tightwad Tuesday - Homemade Maxi Pads
I bought some homemade maxi pads. I absolutely LOVE them! They feel SO MUCH BETTER than store-bought ones. Clean-up is very easy too! They cost more up-front, but once you buy enough, then you are done!
For cleaning them, I also bought a plastic shoe box that has a lid. I keep it in the bathroom closet. When I am done with one of the pads, I pour some peroxide on it, rinse it out, then put it in the shoe box, along with some water and vinegar. That way it is not grossing everyone out because it is out in the open.
For those of you who are not "sewing machine-challenged," you can make them more economical by making them yourself.

I have seen these around town. We have a lot of hippies and they like to be REAL natural. I might have to try a couple to see if I like it.

I wish I would've know about these when I was younger!! I hated the way my pads felt, especially because I played sports!!
Thanks for the tip!
