Trip to the Medical Supply Store

So I went to a medical supply store in here in the Bay Area. Diapered, like always, I wandered into the incontinence isle and noticed they had a whole shelf of Molicare. I quickly found the super-plus and found my size. The people next(couple in their 40's) to me were looking for incontinence products for their loved one. I offered to help them by telling them what I new about absorbancies and such. They asked me if I was in the medical business because I knew so much and I told them I was a product user. They both said "OH" and I watched both of their eyes scan down to my diapered region. About that time the sales clerk arrived and I let him take over, both of them said "Thank you for your help" and I continued on my search. The clerk then came back to me and I asked if he could go in back and get a case of the super-pluses for me. He did and came back with a case. He then asked if I lived around here which I told him about 50 miles away. He offered to give me a sample so I could change before I drove home. I accepted and was given the sample and was told about the bathroom in the back. I changed out of my wet diaper and came out with it in hand as there was only a small waste basket in the bathroom. There were about 6 or 7 people near the register (3 employees adn 3-4 customers including the couple I had helped earlier). The couple had a mildly surprised look on their faces and the staff pointed me to the dumpster. I picked up my case and walked out the door, disposing of the wet one on the way to my car. I had never been so open about my diaper wearing as I was on this day!!!

I wear for medical reason but for some reason i get a high feeling getting samples of diapers i make it a point on vaction to get samples and get weird looks there was once i was asking about the sizes she offered to help to make sure it fit right but i chickened out i too rather go away from my house so no one will know me

I have told others I am a bedwetter in the hotel wear I work and buying diapers I never get a bad look telling other bedwetters you wet too I think they enjoy metting another bedwetter

I don't have a car so i gotta ride a bike to the store so i usually go to one in town. i try to wera unrecognizable clothing so as not to get noticed by someone i might know. Also i don't get paid a lot so i can usually only afford one pack everytime i go.

I do not wear 24/7, but i always try to wear if i am shopping for more diapers. I have never had any sort of experience like that. Maybe i am too shy and staring at my shoes too much, lol.

As long as you are professional about your conversations in the Medical Supply Stores the people are very receptive and friendly.I used to go in with my live in girlfriend who was a nurse. We used to get a lot of help from the clerks and did strike up a lot of conversations with other patrons.If you curb the potty diaper talk it is easy to come out of the closset.

IN my opinion, in the medical shops they don't even consider that you would buy the diapers for fun. They are so used to selling them, that it is quite normal to have a customer. If you are really shy You can alway pretend buying for your grandparents or neighbour or whoever.

Hey diaperlovernv,

Thanks for sharing. This is like something I would have loved to do while I was living there. Not as a provocation... More to test my own bravery. I often looked at the "Medical Supply Store" storefronts, but ended off driving down to Peggy Lu.

I went to one around here, they had a few Incontinence Supplies but the sales people were too nosy and I left...

It wasnt a much greater selection than the local CVS Pharmacy and its much more pleasant to shop there anyway...

I buy my diapers from a lady who has a small warehouse setting not far from my house. She is very nice and always seems to enjoy when I stop by.

Her business looks to be almost 50-50 between baby diapers and adult diapers. Most of her business is shipping and she said she has very few customers like me who prefer to buy in person. I don't flaunt or hide the fact that I'm wearing diapers when I go to see her. And yes, I have had her eyes drift down to my waist.

A while back she was getting ready to go on vacation, so I needed to gauge my supply so I had enough diapers to last until she returned. I don't have much storage at home so I only buy one package at a time. I was trying to decide what to buy and I told her that my nighttime concerns were greater than my daytime concerns, but that my nighttime concerns were not daily concerns. I kiddingly said that I had probably given her too much information and we both had a laugh.

I was there earlier in the week to buy baby diapers to use as stuffers and she showed me a large supply of Depends shields that she had just gotten in. She said that is was too bad I didn't use them because she would give a good deal on them.

The whole point of this is just to say that once you get comfortable buying in person it's not a big deal and you can even have fun while doing it.

Ok to get good diapers here in hawaii a trip to the medical store is a must if you are not able to buy online via a CC. I have no problems going into the local medical stores and buying diapers these days... however 5 years ago that would be a different story. Always good when you get help from the female helpers...

OK... sorry, but yeh Diapers in Hawaii... good adult diapers are hard to come by... Depends, Assurance is what we see alot of in our stores here. In the base commisary Tena and depends....

At the medical stores in Aiea I have found Attends, Abena, Tena, Assurance... I wonder if they would ever consider selling Bambino Diapers???

Aloha

I just went to the pharmacy to buy diapers. And it was the scariest thing in my life.

I was really nervous. I felt like every one was looking at me. But when I got out I realized that it was fine and went home and enjoyed my weekend with the houseto myself

I dont think i could do that!

i once bought diapers using a self service check out

but i mainly do it on the internet

There was one time I was out of town and decided I would check to see if there was any medical stores near where I was staying. I found a couple of stores and took off to check them out the first pace I went to I was looking at what kind of diapers they sold and the sales lady asks if I needed help. I told her I was looking for incontinence supplies but i wasn't for sure what size to get in the brands that they had on hand. the next thing i knew she pulled out a cloth measuring tape and asked if i minded id she could measure my waist. i told her i didn't mind and she had me lift my arms up as she measured my waist. and of course i was wearing at the time. best public expierance so far.

I am glad you had good experience. Med stores are the best place to buy decent diapers without going online. Nothing to be afraid of.

The medical stores where I live (40 miles away ) dont even carry diapers, pants, or even creams and lotions. They refer you to department stores. What good that does.
