Take for instance my box of Puffs brand tissues. (Side note: never call your tissue a Kleenex unless it is, in fact, a Kleenex brand tissue. It’s like saying you Xeroxed a document. Unless it’s a Xerox brand copy machine, you actually copied your document.)
Back to my tissues. Because I am not a scientist, I cannot say for sure whether this new, enhanced product was, in fact, genetically engineered. I will say it is a fabulous invention. It smells like Vicks! Are you familiar with Vicks? I love it. I could sniff it for days. It’s the scent of heaven, the scent of everything that is good, and pure and congestion-free. I love Vicks. I am a Vicks-aholic. And when I stuffed my drippy, runny, snot-filled nostrils into my new Vicks-scented Puffs tissue, I was in total bliss. And no longer congested, as a matter of fact.
Sick people do not take award-winning photos.
Vicks-scented tissues. Talk about cross promotions! Talk about branding! Brilliant!
Speaking of Vicks, my kids hate it. They think it burns. NOW, those brainiacs at the Vicks company make Vicks Baby Rub. It’s Vicks, without the burn power … although it doesn’t burn, it invigorates!
Vicks is not paying me to proclaim its wonders, but I shall hark its heralds far and near. Probably because every person in my family is suffering from chest-nose-throat-and-ear congestion and good ol’ Vicks is the cure for it all. I know, I could go to the doctor and get a bunch of medicine for all of us … but we’re hardy folks. And now that Vicks has partnered with Puffs with or without lotion, we’ll be ok!
Indeed, a scent from heaven! I discovered these babies, the last time I was sick and now I can’t go without them! I keep them fully stocked in my bathroom. (especially, since pregnancy seems to give me a never ending supply of, well, mucas! LOL)
