I buy whichever Always product comes in the longest variant. That brand's longest is longer than the other brand's longest. But I was really ticked off that I had to buy them both to find that out. Someone should make them print the dimensions of the pad on the box/bag.
I haven't heard that slogan. You're right that its enough to get me to stop buying their brand.
(I stopped buying Northern toilet paper because they showed cartoon women quilting it by hand. I prefer that my toilet paper not be directly handled before I get it. I also don't buy the ones with babies on the package. It was hard to find toilet paper that wasn't so horribly mis-marketed and yet wasn't a hideous product.)
They make colored feminine hygiene products? Insanity. And, um. I usually put the pads in underwear. No one is going to see the pad even if my pants fall off. Why don't they solve problems we actually have?
With all the research they put into these products, I'm sure someone could have developed a pill to stop menstruation entirely.
The only marketing that actually works for me is when they send me a coupon for a free box. Then I try the new thing and if I like it better, I switch. I don't know what works for other women, but I don't think I'm going to have a lot in common with someone who needs their pantiliners to come in leopard print.
