For those too shy to go out and buy some...

[PM8]

Well, to start the story off, I was at the mall a few weeks back.

In their food court restroom, I noticed the diaper changing wall-thing. Sort of disregarded it, for they are common sights. But what I noticed on the way out was something of convenience to mothers, and of dreams to us.

It was a diaper dispenser.

Like one of those little toy dispensers you see on the way out of the grocery store, you insert a few quarters, turn a crank, and out comes your "toy".

Look for it the next time you're in the mall. Its a big, metallic box on the wall. The diapers were more than small on me, but were amazing nevertheless.

Keep your eyes peeled! You never know when fate/luck will strike.

Pretty good really, but they are still really small. I'd say buying them would be the best. No one will care.

Yes, getting my own would be nice. But I'm too timid. I just know someone will be judging me from afar. I'll just wait till high schools over... College should be fun. ^o^

You don't have to say anything. No one is going to ask you. They don't care why you are buying diapers. lol

If you go up to the counter and start blathering on about how these diapers are for your sibling/neighbor/cousin/etc. when no one asked, THEN it will look suspicious.

Seems to me that buying out of a vending machine could be WAY more embarrassing. Consider this - you buy a package and you could be buying it to take it back home for any number of reasons. You buy one diaper out of a vending machine, and someone else comes in the restroom and sees you doing this, when you have no baby with you? Now THAT would lead to questions.

I think the only two times I ever really felt a lot of embarrassment were when:

1. The first time I ever bought diapers, it was at a pharmacy that for some reason, had them behind the counter. When I finally got up my nerve after walking all around the store to ask where the "incontinence items" were, this girl who looked about 17-18 looked confused for a minute, then said (loud enough it seemed for the whole county to hear her), "Incontinence items? You mean, like, adult diapers?"

2. At a Walmart, I put a package of Girls Goodnites in my cart,and there was this girl who looked about 8 or 9 who kept looking at the package and then staring at me accusingly. lol

LOL.


But yeah, I guess that anyon seeing me getting one out of the machine would be freaked, but there was nobody in there at the time. I waited for everyone to leave.
