I actually thought that today I was going to have a big haul, it felt like it, but when I laid the products on the table it actually looked pretty empty! I went to Walgreens, CVS and Wal-Mart. I got a lot of products I needed: Zyrtec for my allergies, Theraflu for my coughing, Nivea chapstick for my husband, and of course, my favorite: Lysol No Touch!!!
