Tesco Assorted Fabric Plasters

its a nice thing

T'was a quiet Saturday afternoon when all hell broke loose. One minute I was peeling potatoes ready for dinner and the next I was extracting the tip of my finger from the evil jaws of the potato peeler. Being medically trained (I have my Brownie First Aid Certificate) I grabbed a clean piece of kitchen towel, applied pressure and shouted for assistance. Assistance duly arrived in the form of an excited six year old. I dispatched her to the cupboard for the first aid kit. First aid kit retrieved she spent a happy few minutes pawing through the contents to see what lay hidden in its depths. She finally located the box of Assorted Tesco Plasters and dumped them ...  Read the complete review

Sometimes I don't what my life is coming to when I feel it's perfectly normal for myself to write a review on plasters. Nevertheless I shall plough on despite the pain that my little finger is having to endure! I don't know whether you've had the pleasurable experience of ripping your fingernail (well a lot of it) off. With the aid of a potato pealer I vow to never use again.

Years ago I used to work in the school kitchens and we always had a large supply of those useless blue plastic plasters that were especially designed to `show up` if by any chance they fell off while you were ...  Read the complete review

I feel a bit had by Tesco over these plasters. These were the only plasters I could find in our local Tesco. I checked the whole of the health and beauty bit, but the only brand of plasters I could find were these Tesco ones on a special display stand. There were on offer for two boxes for £2. Normally they're a bit over £1 per box so I thought I might as well get two for the small saving. You always need plasters and it's not like they go out of date. I opened up the first plaster out of this box and put it on the blister that was on my foot, when I got home of course. Getting the backing wrapper off was fiddly, and I tore the plaster slightly trying to ...  Read the complete review
