We have finally reached November,
and with that we welcome in the holiday season. For most of us, that means GO time. We take out our planners and
phones and we start juggling. We vow that this year, we will wag more, and bark
less! We promise we will be one cool-as-a-cucumber, organized lady from now
until New Year’s Day! And then reality sets in and we start to feel a little
less confident in our superwoman capabilities! Even more so if we have LBL
(light bladder leakage), which can cause an entirely different type of stress
altogether.
This is a sponsored
post for Acorn Influence. All opinions are my own.
I’ve touched on LBL a time or two
in the past here on my blog because I feel it is such an important topic that
shouldn’t be taboo. Over the course of this year, I’ve experienced LBL while
doing strenuous gardening, to my dismay, and also when making myself wait too
long to find a restroom. I kept telling myself, I’ll get just one more item off
my list and then I’ll break for the bathroom. Sound familiar?
Since then, I’ve devised a new
way of shopping. Armed with my master
shopping list (that my family helps keep current), I decide what local
store would have most, if not all, of the items on that list. More often than
not, I find myself shopping at my local Walmart. Not only does most Walmart’s
have two convenient bathrooms at the front and rear of the store; I love that I
can pick up lettuce for a salad, boot socks for the kids, a holiday card and my
newest accessory, Poise Microliners, all in one shopping trip.
Another tip I’ve started
implementing is writing out my shopping list in the order I’ll find products in
the store. So worth the prep time when you don’t have to walk all the way
through a store again for a forgotten item! That’s saves me time, which helps me be stress-free.
Ladies, if you are starting to
experience occasional LBL like I am ‒ it’s time for you to make the switch from
your regular pantyliner to Poise Microliners. The lightest absorbency liners
are just as thin as my regular brand of pantyliner, and just as cost-effective.
I got this two-month-supply box at my local Walmart for $4.68. I found the
liners on the top shelf, but you’ll see the whole line of Poise near the
feminine care aisle.
One thing I noticed right away
when I made the switch was I couldn’t feel a difference at all! Poise liners
have thin-flex technology, so they move with your body and they stay put in
your underwear, too. They offer 3-in-1 protection: dryness, comfort, and odor
control, making them my perfect go-to liner from now on. Each box comes with a
number to help you efficiently and discreetly choose which product is best for
you.
If this is your first time
purchasing Poise liners and you don’t want to stand in the aisle reading each
box, I suggest visiting Walmart.com, where you’ll find helpful information on
all the Poise products they carry.
By setting aside time each week
to think through what you need to accomplish, making a master shopping list,
routing your path through the store and using your new accessory, Poise liners
for LBL, you should be able to maximize your shopping trips for a stress-free
holiday season.
Let’s all endeavor to wag more, bark less, enjoy more and
stress less this holiday season.
Happy Holidays!
Please share in comments: What’s
your best holiday shopping tip?
I think I'm going to pick some of those up. My almost 94 year old Mom writes out everything and everywhere she wants to go--it is up to me to figure out the best route. Luckily she HAS to stop for lunch or I would have a lot more them LBL!
ReplyDeleteReally great tip for being able to maximize your shopping trips. There is nothing I hate more than having to cut a trip short or extending it longer than it needs to be! Holiday shopping is so stressful!!
ReplyDeleteI always favor Wal-mart because it has everything we need under one roof, even a Subway under the same roof. I will be stress free (as far as gifting goes) because I started very early. I have night time incontinence so I will have LBL eventually and will definitely keep Poise in mind.
ReplyDeleteHi Michelle,
ReplyDeleteSo glad I was able to share a product with you to try. And bless you for shopping with your 94 year old Mom. That is fantastic that you can help her. Ha! On her stopping for lunch. Sounds like me with my kids.
Hi Gladys.
ReplyDeleteI'm happy to hear you like shopping at Walmart too for the convenience of finding everything under one roof and that you'll keep Poise liners in mind.
Hi Leah,
ReplyDeleteThank you for the positive comment! I love sharing tips with others, especially if it helps use lead more acitve, stress-free lives.
These are all great shopping tips to maximize the shopping experience. Writing the list in order of where things are in the store is indeed an excellent idea. I usually do this in my head with out the list. Thanks for sharing the tips and Poise products really do protect woman from embarrassing moments.
ReplyDeleteI shop the same way! Writing your shopping list in the order of the aisles at the store is so helpful. I even created a printable on my website that is a shopping list organized by aisle. Great minds must think alike!
ReplyDeleteThese are all great tips and I thank you for sharing them with your readers. Holiday shopping is always stressful! The only way I can avoid getting burned out is to start my shopping as early as August. A masterlist is a nifty idea too.
ReplyDeleteMan, I never thought I'd see the day. But lately if I have to go there better be a bathroom close by or I'm in trouble, lol!
ReplyDeleteThese are indeed awesome tips for maximizing your shopping for less stress. It is so important to have a list and I love the idea of putting list in order of the isles. Thanks for sharing the tips for shopping and the LBL tips too.
