DailyDi Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 First time I have seen an adult pull-up marketed like Goodnites ("Overnight protection") with photos of young adults (not seniors) getting ready for bed. Link to comment
TerryBigBum Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 Cool, where can these be purchased from? Link to comment
messyman Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 Cool, where can these be purchased from? Publix. I think it is only in the states. Link to comment
PowderWhite Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 Have you tried them? I will likely buy them solely on accountof the packaging. It is super cool to see that age group marketed to for diapers, not so much for DL interests, but because it would be nice if people didnt think bedwetting was so abnormal at this age.

DailyDi Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 I think it's a major step in the right direction for incontinence marketing. I'm tired of buying diapers with photos of 80 year olds playing tennis on the bags. Wearing one now. More comfortable than the Depend pull-ons, and wider crotch too, actually designed for a man to wear as well as women. Link to comment
thekid1 Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 looks like i have a new diaper to try Link to comment
Guest diamondback688 Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 Publix only has stores in Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina...the company was started in the town i grew up in, and i actually know one of the VPs....if you really wanted the diapers though..., im sure you could find some on eBay...

PowderWhite Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 Do they have standing leak guards? To me, that is a must. Anything without them, other than a full out diaper like attends, is just a big pad imo. Link to comment
diapereddan Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 could some one post a picture of the diaper not just the pacage? Link to comment
redneck diaper boy Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 Super markets in Flordia and Georgia, one of the best I might add as well. I shop, for food, exclusively at Publix. Publix. I think it is only in the states. Link to comment
Guest diamondback688 Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 same here...i wont shop at any other grocery store... Link to comment
AutieAB Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 same here...i wont shop at any other grocery store... Publix is expensive, though... Link to comment
InDpnds Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 I also have begun using the Publix brand of pull-ups recently and find them very satisfactory. Re AutieAB's comments that Publix is expensive. Yes they are in certain things, but in other things they are less than the other chains. It depends on what you're buying. As for the Publix pull-ups, they are $9.99, which is very much in line, oe even a little cheaper, than similar products at Wal-Mart or other big-box stores. At times, Publix sells Depends for no more than the other places. I also like Daily Di's and Powder White's comments about Publix taking a step in the right direction for marketing. Almost all of their pull-up packages generally have pictures of younger people, which is very encouraging for those of us who aren't 80-years-old and play tennis!! So anyone who lives in Florida, Georgia, S. Carolina, or wherever else Publix is, might do well to try the "house brand" of pull-ups. Link to comment
tiger Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Whether it is just me but i have tried huggies dry nites for boys 8-15 and all is well, they do not rip as did the girls ones and also hold lots of liquid, makes a big bulge, so may be the girl anatomy is smaller than the boys so hence have made their girls dry nites smaller to fit them better where as the boys they have left the same.

PhilDL Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 Do they have padding and a waterproof barrier up to the waistband like the Depends refastable undies? Phil I think it's a major step in the right direction for incontinence marketing. I'm tired of buying diapers with photos of 80 year olds playing tennis on the bags. Wearing one now.

AutieAB Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Wearing one now. More comfortable than the Depend pull-ons, and wider crotch too, actually designed for a man to wear as well as women. Are they actually any good? I'm heading back to the States again soon so these could be on my shopping list. The problem I have with the 8-15yrs Drynites/Goodnites, though, is that they're designed to hold an 8-15 year-old's bladderful. Do the Publix ones hold an adult amount without leaking everywhere?

InDpnds Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 For AutieAB, pleased you'll be in the states soon and I hope you enjoy it. To answer your question, yes, the Publix brand will hold an adult amount, but like anything else, one can definitely overdo it to the point of leakage. If you wet heavily, the overnight style should hold you for a few hours, and there is a style that is used for more moderate incontinence and may be good for a couple-three hours out. They are more protective than the Goodnites/Drynites brand, since the Publix brand is marketed for adults. So enjoy your trip and give 'em a try! They are $9.99 per package. Link to comment
Max123 Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 I wear diapers for comfort only pretty much, and currently have a few packs of girls goodnites. I was wondering wich is most comfortable as I have yet to try the boys because I like the girly look! Link to comment
seppuku Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 They're essentially identical, the "super absorbent polymer" is just in different places. Since you're not wearing them to use them, you need not worry, because the difference isn't there. Link to comment

thekid1 Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 the diapers are the same thickens all the way through the pulp and super absorbent gel is just distributed differently Link to comment
tiger Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 the diapers are the same thickens all the way through the pulp and super absorbent gel is just distributed differently So being from the United Kingdom, we have Dry Nites Boys and Girls, i assume these are the same things. I have been just like you, seen the adverts on tv, reading the reviews about them on the nappy reviews but was eager to buy some and try them. I have had a few mis targets, i had them in my hand then at the last minute and then chickened out. Finally i plucked up the courage and bought girls dry nites but i feel that the absorbancy is where girls leak most, judging where the anatomy is, but i have had about 5 packs, but have found that nearly half of them kept splitting at the sides. But decided to buy boys dry nites (8-15 years), they do not split unlike the girls ones. But they allow you to wet like a trooper as they have anti leak cuffs and lots of padding mainly at the front. Great designs. Link to comment
beallucanb Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 Last week I was going through my stash, and I found a pull-up, the ones with the ATV's on the front panel,I figured being it was the last one I would use it, so I put a serenity guard in and a pair of plastic pants on, I was very suprised how much it actully held before it started to leak. I had it on for 6 hours before it leaked, I was impressed, that guard made a big difference in feel, and performance...I think I will buy another pack, Link to comment
