Meh Bandages are really Meh!
15I’ll be honest, I didn’t search the forum to find out whether this has already been discussed. If it has, just think of this as my endorsement/disagreement with whatever they said…
So I’m out walking 3 dogs and pushing a stroller while my wife carries our baby that has decided she hates her stroller after 15 minutes. Anyway, we come across another dog on the sidewalk. No big deal - most of the time these dogs are fine. They usually do nothing or growl a little if the dog we’re passing barks at them. Well! This was new experience… 2 dogs on a co-leash decide they’re pumped to meet my 3 dogs and pull their owner towards me. Mine react and pull me towards them…into a trashcan. My knee hits a shaving of the plastic trashcan and gives it a nice little hole. No big deal.
We get home about a block later and I find blood all the way down my leg into my shoe. I don’t take blood thinners so maybe I got a real cut on my hands?! I clean it up, put some ointment on it, and stick a trusty Meh bandage on it. It ain’t trusty. Need more stick! I put a second one. No luck. Third? This is the third.
I ain’t mad. I should have known. I also should have a decent first aid kit in the house with a 4 month old. Lesson learned.

Clearly, they are designed not to pull the hair out when removed. They do that by not sticking.
You know who to blame.
Meh! By definition they have met their mark.
If you’re looking for some good bandages, I recommend McKesson. Those buggers stick better than any I’ve ever used. They stay on when they get wet too. We get them from Amazon but I’m sure they’re carried elsewhere.
Thanks for the warning, I bought them too.
Working with pins and needles, I cut my fingers a lot and have to be very careful not to bleed on the fabrics. These stick well, are waterproof, and make me smile.
Well clearly that arm or whatever body part it is, is just too hairy.
