Hey, CVS Drug store people? I was wondering...would you consider switching to better quality bags? By that I mean, opaque? Because even though I'm a grown woman well into my thirties who is normally immune to feelings of embarrassment about my body and its many functions and needs, I have to admit that when one is carrying two boxes of super Tampax, extra long overnight maxi-pads (with wings), panty liners, acne cream and Motrin--in A CLEAR BAG down a busy thoroughfare; well...the looks one receives, ranging from horror to sympathy, can make a person feel, let's say, a smidge uncomfortable. And as you and each passerby can clearly deduce from my purchases, I'm experiencing my share of discomfort already.
Just a suggestion. Thank you.

Would he want me to know that much about him? "Hey! I see you have athletes foot, dandruff, hemorrhoids, and bad breath..."
