Undies 😼

Today was another hot and humid day, so I was getting my steps in at the mall when I passed one of the store's marketing signs and learned that August 5th was National Underwear Day. Who knew!
The sign said that the store was giving away a free pair of panties to each customer, but when I found out I had to sign up for their rewards program I decided I wasn't interested.

Instead, I came home and organized my underwear drawer, tossing a couple of pairs that had developed holes.I remembered from years ago that the best time to buy underwear was during the August back-to-school sales, so I went to Walmart and purchased a 10-pack of all-cotton panties. They're more my style, anyway.

  1. It seems there is a day set aside for everything and underwear, who knew indeed! I am with you on preferring the cotton variety and multipacks are the best.

    1. In my opinion, life is too short to wear anything lacy or uncomfortable next to your body, and I wash things carefully, so a multipack will last me for a long time,

  2. I just read about this on another blog...apparently the aim is to promote confidence? Hmm...whatever the reason to celebrate, I do, because life would be uncomfortable without them.

    1. I was surprised that the 'day' was new to me. Usually things like that are heavily promoted ahead of time.

  4. National Underwear Day! Good grief! My drawer could do with sorting as well. I also have holey ones.

  7. Those don't look like my kind of undies anyway. Granny panties are more comfortable. 🤣🤣
