Walgreens Diapers


I feel like everyone I know knows people who swear by a store brand of something - cleaner, diapers, wipes, food, soda, whatever, which typically means they are saving some bucks over national name brand. However, I feel like I never find these deals or products that I really love.
Anyway, I tried out the Walgreens diapers on the recommendation of a close friend, and, well, I'm not a big fan. L was not a big fan. Half the bag is still under the kids' dresser. I suppose if you're in a pinch, they are decent, but we found the following:
Not as secure on the velcro as the Pampers we usually use
Filled up quickly with pee (ie diaper got HUGE)
Several pooxplosions which leaked up the back, and a couple times out the leg
More papery feeling than cloth feeling

Tumaro's Low Carb Green Onion Tortillas


I used these to make enchiladas because they were the only tortillas I had in the house. Not good. Texture and consistency were poor - they were crumbly and flakey and didn't roll/fold well. They kind of fell apart. And they tasted vaguely like cardboard. Not at all like green onions. Thumbs down.

Cherry Chocolate Diet Dr. Pepper


blech.
Don't be fooled into drinking this because you like Dr. Pepper. Total grossness.
