I had an issue with FedEx
One of my medical supply companies sent out some supplies via FedEx to me. They where supposed to be here last Sunday then they moved the day of arrival to last Monday then they said my package delivery is postponed each day until this past Saturday.

No need for sorry with me ICGamer, but thank you. It is just part of life that I live with, not suffer from. Someday's it is a pad that is needed, others a boosted quality diaper. We all have our things in life to work through and preparation for the unexpected comes in many forms for us. I also carry a medical bag for trauma and jumper cables in the truck (next to a bag with spare diapers and clothes). Just be prepared!

@wetdad For me it’s always a premium quality diaper. Wheather that’s a supreme or a MegaMax it depends on if I’m at home or out. I’m going to a museum with friends on Thursday and have to be out most of the day Friday (drs appointments and getting a new disability placard) but I have saved up enough MegaMax that I’ll be fine. I still have at least 2 packs. I’ll put in my monthly order Friday And I found 2 packs I’d betterdry that I can use at home and one pack of crinklz. I hate the pattern but they fit me the best. Even better than betterdry and people say they are the same (I don’t think they are). I always keep diapers in my backpack too. I could have been a Boy Scout. Hahah

@ThatFLGuy my closet isn’t as organized. I’ll spare you the picture. I also have all of my jackets and hoodies in my diaper closet so it’s a big mess. I have 2 packs of betterdry but have been having issues with the sides ripping. I don’t know if I’m pulling too hard or what but I don’t have the same problem with supremes or crinklz. I also wear an xl so supremes and crinklz are easier to get. I just like the way the crinklz feel. My mom says they are “cute” but knowing my luck I’d have a medical emergency and end up in the er with one of the damn things on. After this last pack I’m just gonna stick with MegaMax and supreme.

I got samples of the MegaMax. I liked them a lot but felt like they were too much for my needs at the time. Now I am up in the air about them because I have leaked at night. Luck my Gary wear has held.
My big thing is the price is a bit much.
MagaMax are $2.42 per
BetterDry are $1.67 per and with a booster only $1.90
I think in October I am going to order the MegaMax and give them a real try.

O, I had some issues with my better days as well. When I was fluffing them a bit my fingernails riped the side and I did not know it until the morning.
Also. That is just a cabinet. My parents are landlords and someone left that behind so it is mine now. You can hang coats in it but need short (Kids hangers because it is old)
My dad said it is worth $$$ because it is all solid wood.

@ThatFLGuy I’m struggling wheather I want to do the supremes or crinklz. Supremes are cheaper but you get 60 in a case of crinklz rather than 45. It’s just that damn print. I know no one ultimately doesn’t see them (I wear a T-shirt onsie and sweat pants to bed) and I live alone it’s just I don’t know. The fit is perfect and they don’t leak. I would still use MegaMax to go out. And I thought the MegaMax was a bit much at first too but They have really come in handy when I’ve been stuck out of the house and can’t change.

So I actually asked 2 of my best friends for advice about the crinklz. Yes we are that close. One said “f it. No one is gonna see them but you” the other one said “go for it! Who cares!!!” I have some of the best non judgemental friends. I hate that the one day time product that works for me has bears on it but I will be wearing them at home so screw it.

I actually have a few Crinklz left. I got a bag because a few people said that they are better than the betterdrys. Which they are. I have been told that betterdry makes them as well but have not really looked into it.
I figured the same thing your friends did, no one is going to see them.
I like the idea of using the black Megamax though.

@justej I know the feeling! Due to start a Master's next week so need to stock up on high capacity ones as I have a long commute, have been running low on the Rearz Barnyard and annoyingly they're out of stock. Ordered some samples of various different ones which will hopefully be a good alternative. I like the hook and loop tapes though.
@ThatFLGuy Interesting about the Crinklz vs BetterDry. I use them as my round the house ones. Technically Crinklz are supposed to be the same, just with added prints but I had to do a bulk order of them when BetterDry was out of stock and did find them to be a bit better.
Re the prints, when my issues got worse I just grew to accept that the best products tended to be the printed ones. I used the Tykables camouflage ones for a while as the print wasn't so embarrassing and it didn't look like a nappy/diaper. Had big issues with the tapes the last time I bought some and so switched to the Rearz Barnyard which is a better fit but I hate the print.
I guess ultimately as has been said nobody knows what you're wearing. My anxiety stems more from bag searches and medical appointments. That being said, I was wearing a printed one in hospital last year and nobody batted an eyelid. I like that Megamax ones have tasteful prints but they're beyond my price range.
