Yes, we're design dorks. Yes, we really did spend too much time in Target at one point debating whether or not to buy deodorant because the packaging was incredibly ugly. So we're totally enamored of the packaging of these packets of acetaminophen for headaches, and bandages for cuts.
Soothing, calming, perfect when that migraine is coming on or you've tried to rip up that awful carpeting with your bare hands. If only everything in our medicine cabinet looked as good.
Pricey at 6 bucks a pop, but hey, the packaging is made of soft molded paper pulp, recycled and compostable.
Available here.

Cute, but they would be even better if they were re-usable containers!

Cute, but yes - overpriced. I am also weirded out about buying acetaminophen from some random online diy shop - sounds like they make their own?!

i bought olives last night- $4.99 for the jar- hoping that they would be better olives for martinis than the goya olives. The packaging sucked me in. they were not better. But now i will have a nice jar for $4.99 when I finally finish them or throw them out. (They even had bits of seed inside- really for 5 bucks, I expect more) (They were the divine brand- I am so sad)- this post reminded me of them because- slick packaging.

Did you end up buying the deodorant?

Ha. Too bad I'm allergic to acetaminophen.

I'd honestly just prefer to have regular aspirin. Sometimes it's tiring to have "good design" everywhere I look.

What's your point?

I think I'll stick with my generic brand bottle of Tylenol1.
