guitar_a_goo_goo_ga Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 a hundred dollars for some 15 year old diapers? why? Link to comment
roch879 Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 i think its because of the style they were, but u can buy a lot of new ones for 100 Link to comment
guitar_a_goo_goo_ga Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 style? are you serious. how has the style changes so much in the last 20 years for it to be that much better? i could see it if one were a collector of diapers. i am not so oh well. Link to comment
Morv Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 I just wouldn't pay that much money for something I was going to piss in. Link to comment
wayney Posted December 4, 2005 Author Share Posted December 4, 2005 a hundred dollars for some 15 year old diapers? why? It's like a drug fix for me. I have to have them. I've been very upset since Attends was sold because the thickness , smell and crinkle have changed. It's difficult to understand , I know, but I really long to be in them again. Abri form x plus come close but the fit isn't there. No diaper has ever fit as well as Attends have, on me. Link to comment
prakticaboy Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 I used to work for P&G when they made attends. I can guarantee you that the smell would be gone by now. Even in an unopened pack. I do understand why you liked the old ones... they were better. I can still find the old style sometimes at small town pharmacies and other out of the way places , so look and be patient. You will find some my friend. Link to comment

wayney Posted December 5, 2005 Author Share Posted December 5, 2005 What else do you want to know ? Did you work in the diapers area or elsewhere ? Did you get free diapers or discounted or anything ? Link to comment
Rhezz Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 I just wouldn't pay that much money for something I was going to piss in. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Looooool , what about a new toilet Link to comment
Kanji Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 Wow, that was uninspired... Just an obvious answer. I can understand people collecting something, just not diapers. :/ I mean I collect comics and cards... Of which I've spent over 3000 dollars. But really, you can't put a price on entertainment.

prakticaboy Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 I am not there anymore because #1 No union .... #2 I thought it was almost like a cult there.. live eat and breeth P&G, they seemed to just want you to be friends with only your co-workers.. even outside of work. #3 They seemed to think they were the best, the best products etc.. not humble at all. A very back-stabbing place to work. You could only get ahead by back-stabbing another co-worker. Link to comment
diaprbayb Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 You know, you are not the first person I've heard this from. Link to comment
prakticaboy Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 Just went out grocery shopping and decided to go bargain hunting for diapers. I go to odd out of the way places and privatly owned pharmacies. Any how, I struck gold... Found Promise diapers (now called Tena in canada) about 12 years old, Attends products from 10-15 years ago, Depends from about 8-9 years ago. And I found Attends Regular size (in between medium and large size) with the soft inner liner with the plastic micropore liner underneath. Score !!!! They even have old pampers and huggies, not that old though.. About 3or4 years old. Link to comment

We have lost alot of customers since they have purchased us. The customers point blank tell them that they are to pushy and not the friendly company to deal with. The back stabbing seems to be in all factories. Link to comment
combine Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 wayne, I have a couple bags of the old style attends - 6 blue tabs, wasitband, etc. I love them, but I'd be willing to part with a couple bags of them provided you pay for shipping.
