Guest guest Posted October 20, 2000 Report Share Posted October 20, 2000 Donna: I also have a similar story. When I was Pregnant with my second child my son and I had gone thru the drive in window at Hardee's. We had just come from the drug store and so when we were asked for our order he sang the little jingle Prepartion....Preparation....Preparation H! The counter help were all laughing as we drove off without our food.

I needed pantyhose... so I went to K-mart. I was a big girl then so the brand was Big Mama panty hose...... Of course, as if it wasn't humiliating enough to have to buy that brand anyway- they had to call for a price check and the girl on the loudspeaker didn't hold back. She said it loud and clear- I though I was going to have to crawl in a hole somewhere. LOL!!!! It was so embarrassing!! Terri K :^) PS- Just a little tip to everyone who wants to now get rid of their Big Mama pantyhose. As a hairdresser I learned a way to recycle them.... cut the feet and panties off... throw them away and cut the what is left into about 2 inch strips. Stretch them out... they will roll and make perfect headbands. :^) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 22, 2000 Report Share Posted October 22, 2000 Terri, So you was a big mama huh? Well, Honey all us older ones here have definately been there. Sweetie, right now I'd just like to be able to wear Big Mama's again... And I suppose the lady (for better words) was some tall and thin thing that had no idea what she was doing?? Possibly even blonde?? LOL Your amoung friends...Trudy Re: Prep H In a message dated 10/20/00 9:03:14 PM !!!First Boot!!!, mpowell6@... writes: > When checking out (in 1984 before most stores had scanners) the damn PH did > > not have a price on it so of course you know what happened..... > LOUDSPEAKER > > " PRICE CHECK ON PREPARATION H REGISTER 3 " !!!!! > > Donna, I just have to tell you a story about my homecoming dance in high school.
