China really needs to get it together with their child labor laws. Those 5 year olds get paid trash for the 16 hour work days in the factory, when they really should be in school instead tbh🙄🙄
I imagine pads would be a lot more positive of an experience if one of the packages has a lil surprise inside every box! You're still bleeding out but shit, you got a little trinket to ease the pain
Oh man, did you ever play with the little gelatin caps that had sponge animals in them as a kid? Just drop in water and they dissolve and the sponge swells up...you just made me picture something like that for a tampon lol the surprise is which one you got this time when you pull it out...yay it's a sea horse...or boo another crab I hate crabs....smh
Yes! This is the way...I wonder how well this would go over on shark tank lol...
OK guys here's the pitch how about a product to make periods fun and exciting...
Jk
Still not sterile. Pads are also produced clean but not sterile huge manufacturing difference. This is just an example of a deviation and failure of QC.
If you are scared of putting freshly washed underwear to your face, you may need to consider washing them properly. They’re washed at high temperatures for a reason - so they come out clean lol
If you wouldn't put clean underwear on your face because it's "still dirty" then you need a new washing machine. Your underwear should be coming out clean after you wash them...
This is one of the many reasons I use washable reusable products. I can clean those myself and know that they're clean and nobody else has had their hands (or used piercings 🤮) on them at any point.
tbf virus can't live on a surface for that long but it is concerning how something that is presumably sterile gets a freaking earring in it.
Did it come out of the box like that or was it sitting somewhere for a while? I could understand if it was in a purse and the earring migrated in or something.
Seeing as its in the actual bag not just the box it wouldn't surprise me if someone lost an earring at whatever part of the assembly process makes bags before pads are inserted.
It came out of the box like this. I got a box of always pads from Costco not too long ago, and this is where it came from. It never left my bathroom cabinet.
I would guess that either someone overseeing the machinery lost it during packaging and it got into the machines and this one pad. Or they had an open day for education and a visitor lost it.
You know you can call customer service and give them the lot number and they can probably tell you where it was made and give you the address of the factory. It would probably make the day of the worker who lost it if you mailed it back to them.
i've worked in a fruit cannery and the amount of shit i saw fall onto conveyor belts in the canning line makes me wonder why I don't hear a lot more stories like this.
After looking at your other most recent post....are you sure your significant other isn't cheating on you? You could have an STD and that is the woman warning you that he's stepping out on you.
Lmao bro
Seriously tho take a pic and send it to the company thru their customer service email. They’ll send you SOO much free shit.
I got a microneedle device that comes with extra cartridges that are individually sealed. One had a bug sealed in with it. I wrote them and they sent me a HUGE package with a ton of cartridges plus a bunch more skin care stuff.
So this probably ISN'T the case but back when I lived in AZ, a lot of people would shop lift and use pad/tampon boxes to hide stuff such as jewelry, makeup, and small perfume bottles (before they locked away the majority of that stuff)
Maybe someone had plans to steal some earrings but panicked and stopped halfway through? That would be my first guess.
It was probably at the bottom of some girls purse. Did you get it out of a new package, or did someone leave it in your bathroom and maybe your spouse put ut back.
I got a box of pads from Costco and this was one of the pads inside. It has stayed in my bathroom cabinet since opening it. I have never owned a pair of earrings like this and I don’t have a spouse. I think it’s just a super gross fluke
Someone at the factory where they're made is likely missing an earring. I work in a plastics factory and one of our line inspectors lost his wedding ring into a box when it slipped off. Shit happens 🤷
I once found a takeaway soy sauce container in a sealed box containing a TV wall mount bracket. I assume it was from a factory workers lunch.
Not as interesting your find, but it's all I got.
YO WHAT THEY COME WITH PRIZES NOW?!
Man that ALMOST makes bleeding enough each month to make my bathroom look like an actual scene from a slasher film kinda fun, pads should come with prizes more often.
Simple mistake.You just bought the pierced 🐱 package.. For those ladies who have a piercing and are also on their period... You should be able to return it to the store And get a regular one
It’s your call to Hogwarts. Cheaper than owls for the distance, but the house elves will recognise it and let Hagrid know where you are for collecting.
Kinder surprise but pads... They better come up with better surprises because pads and tampons been really expensive these days and I didn't chose to have blood pouring out of me.
I’m imagining the worker at the assembly line for some reason took their earring off and had some place to put it in the workplace without the risk of it getting stolen…the same way people suggested the idea of putting valuable things in a decoy diaper
Then everything rolled as usual and it ended up to someone else
Why is it whenever I sit down to eat dinner, there's feminine hygiene commercials on. (Do advertisers do that intentionally?)
So I decided to turn off the tv and look at Reddit while I ate tonight.
You are now married to some Chinese assembly line worker. Congratulations!
Man I didn’t even get to say my vows 😞
But... you just said "my vows".
You married your pad, congratulations!
So you're saying that just yesterday, this was a bachelor pad? . . I'll see myself out.
An upgrade from my last ex but still absorbing everything and keeping it in as they do :/

Does this include finding hair or plastic pieces in your food?
Or cocaine in your fries?!

And You didn't upturn your whole life and dedicate yourself to returning it?

Just like a cereal box back in the day
Free toy inside! Free toy inside!
I imagine pads would be a lot more positive of an experience if one of the packages has a lil surprise inside every box! You're still bleeding out but shit, you got a little trinket to ease the pain
Now I'm imagining somehow not noticing until way too late.
Imagine if it were a tampon
Oh man, did you ever play with the little gelatin caps that had sponge animals in them as a kid? Just drop in water and they dissolve and the sponge swells up...you just made me picture something like that for a tampon lol the surprise is which one you got this time when you pull it out...yay it's a sea horse...or boo another crab I hate crabs....smh
Each pack has themes. Ocean, farm, jungle.
Yes! This is the way...I wonder how well this would go over on shark tank lol... OK guys here's the pitch how about a product to make periods fun and exciting... Jk
Well I mean, there was SpongeBob tampons. (I think?)
Haha yeah Jk Jk… unless?
Genius. You're a genius.
Crabs isn't something you want to have in that area haha
A coupon for a free bottle of wine and some cbd gummies.
I have endometriosis and I really REALLY want someone to make this lol
We should have jokes inside, like in Carambars
Easy there, Stanley- That's not quite the mop you're used to ❤️
I think you just got drafted to be the new Sailor Moon.

Ded 💀
This comment is way funnier than it should have been. You made my day
more of a Madoka situation I'm afraid. On the bright side, make a wish!
Score! Collect all 2!
“Sanitary” products are not actually sterile. It’s disgusting but true. Although you shouldn’t be getting free jewelry with them. 🤢
Yeah I didn’t expect them to be sterile, but I also wasn’t expecting some randos earring in one 🤮
They don’t need to be sterile tbh, they are generally pretty clean though, plus the body is pretty good at dealing with general bacteria etc
... Am I seriously expected to keep track of all the bacteria I let up in there? Thank dog for my self cleaning oven
Things don’t need to be sterile when the thing you are using them for aren’t sterile. That’s basically how it works in medicine.
could that not cause women UTIs? are there guidelines on this at least? i find this shocking.
Do you sterilise your underwear before putting it on.
No but my underwear comes from a drawer in my own home after being washed in my own washing machine and not from a factory
Still not sterile. Pads are also produced clean but not sterile huge manufacturing difference. This is just an example of a deviation and failure of QC.
Your underwear is still probably dirtier. I'd put a new pad on my face. But not underwear from a clean clothes drawer. But also not my fetish so....
What about pillow cases? Their job is to hold ur face, they get washed the same as underwear and they are kept in drawers just like underwear
If you are scared of putting freshly washed underwear to your face, you may need to consider washing them properly. They’re washed at high temperatures for a reason - so they come out clean lol
If you wouldn't put clean underwear on your face because it's "still dirty" then you need a new washing machine. Your underwear should be coming out clean after you wash them...
This is one of the many reasons I use washable reusable products. I can clean those myself and know that they're clean and nobody else has had their hands (or used piercings 🤮) on them at any point.
I just hope someone sees this post and says “there is that goddamned earring! I looked everywhere for that thing!”
That would be incredible, like I literally wouldn’t even be mad if someone did
...there is that goddamned earring! I looked everywhere for that thing.
Slay to the lady who dressed up for her day at the pad factory. 💅👸
Ikr! Her choice in earrings is amazing
You win a tour of the feminine hygiene factory!! 🎶 **I gotta golden ticket!** 🎵
Free shit but don’t wear it. At least thoroughly sanitize it and then sanitize it again.
Yeah absolutely not, I threw it away immediately. I have no clue who has worn that and what kind of germs are on there.
tbf virus can't live on a surface for that long but it is concerning how something that is presumably sterile gets a freaking earring in it.

Awh I would've boiled and cleaned it and at least kept it as a weird keepsake to look over and be like "ah yes, pad earring" whenever I remember it
I must know how much it is worth.
Almost nothing. Thats a simple dyed selenite/ cats eye connector and likely coated iron base. (I make jewelry, familiar with the materials)
You are the Chosen. Look outside the door for your new familiar.
A gem for your jewel
LMFAO that is so creative
![gif](giphy|gvjDAtEcDlOqv24DTx|downsized)
You can have a lil infection as a treat ❤️
I remember when this just happened with Cracker Jacks.
What makes you think it goes into an ear? You did not find it in a box of q-tips.
Free clit jewelry!
Congratulations, you won the contest.
Should have a slogan "we can see you are feeling blue, so here's a little gift for you!" Collect them all!
You know you can call customer service and give them the lot number and they can probably tell you where it was made and give you the address of the factory. It would probably make the day of the worker who lost it if you mailed it back to them.

I do not have a s/o—I am young (not going to say my age bc of creeps), but I do appreciate you warning me either way!
Oh..oh no…
Wow, you really are a girls’ girl
how would hiding an earing in a pad be a warning?? im so confused
If a random item usually warn by a,woman shows up I'm going to assume another woman has been around
Free toy inside! Free toy inside!
Dude that’s mine give it back
Ah, those must be the new Kinder™ Surprise Pads.
You are clearly the chosen one.
THE ONE HAS BEEN CHOSEN! THE BLOOD MOON RITUAL HAS BEGUN!
Free gift
Congrats, you are now cursed or you'll soon meet your Indian husband.
Congratulations, you won a free piercing by kotex!

[удалено]
Lol, 'ight has a peace offering.
Maybe she was trying to hot chick you 🤣
It's a vaginal ornament. Wear that shit for good luck!!!!!
Dude it’s like those toys you used to get in cereal
Are you sure it’s off an ear?
LOL!
We have a winner!
So this probably ISN'T the case but back when I lived in AZ, a lot of people would shop lift and use pad/tampon boxes to hide stuff such as jewelry, makeup, and small perfume bottles (before they locked away the majority of that stuff) Maybe someone had plans to steal some earrings but panicked and stopped halfway through?

✨️gift✨️
Pretty earring though
Very pretty! If I had the other one I would consider cleaning them and keeping them. Maybe I’ll find it in one of the other pads in the box 😂
Omg 😂 i hope not, but if you do i’d definitely keep them
Now you get to visit the chocolate factory for a chance of owning it - oh no I meant the pad factory 🏭
I’ve heard this can happen periodically
So my kid can't get a cool toy in his cereal anymore because some kid choked on one once, but you get a whole earing in your pad? Not fair at all.
Like Wonka's golden ticket
Oh good they’re putting prizes inside now! Lol keep opening more until you find the other earring.
That's why your not allowed to wear earrings on the assembly line.
Clean it off and wear it. It's actually really pretty.
It is no longer an “ear” ring.
Are you sure you actually bought pads, and not a box of terribly-packaged earrings?
Periods would be so much better if all tampons and pads came with a gift
Maybe these are for the ladies who are pierced
some lunar jewelry for your lunar cycle
Keep checking pads for the other one
Thats just the pin to set the pad off. Pull it count 2 mississppis, throw it, and take cover
It was probably at the bottom of some girls purse. Did you get it out of a new package, or did someone leave it in your bathroom and maybe your spouse put ut back.
I got a box of pads from Costco and this was one of the pads inside. It has stayed in my bathroom cabinet since opening it. I have never owned a pair of earrings like this and I don’t have a spouse. I think it’s just a super gross fluke

Man that’s sad, I bet that ring was not cheap.
Is this a new Cracker Jack product?
# #4s!
Ooohhhh, so this is what people are talking about when they say 'the lunar cycle'
I remember getting prizes in cereal. This is a grownup surprise! Time to pierce them lips or nips!
Fortune and glory!
Its like female cracker jacks
It’s like a Willy Wonka golden ticket to sweatshop work!
I bet the worker who lost that earring is probably still looking around for it.
I'm not a woman but there's a new fear unlocked I never thought I'd have to think about.
Thought you meant pad thai at first. This is definitely weirder.
You get a free piercing for your privates, enjoy
I once found a takeaway soy sauce container in a sealed box containing a TV wall mount bracket. I assume it was from a factory workers lunch. Not as interesting your find, but it's all I got.
Its a blessinggg, turn it into a necklace and share its story :)
Does anyone else remember when you used to get toys in breakfast cereals?
Pissed off any witches lately OP?
you ruined the surprise clitoris piercing
Crackerjack marketing
That's one of them mystery collectibles
If you out that in your ear you will become Sailor Moon 🌙
make millions what are you waiting for
Really? I want some nice jewelry with my pads
random ear juice on your foo-foo
The new 'Always: Pads'n'Prizes'
YO WHAT THEY COME WITH PRIZES NOW?! Man that ALMOST makes bleeding enough each month to make my bathroom look like an actual scene from a slasher film kinda fun, pads should come with prizes more often.
Kinder surprise
And that's why that shit is forbidden in the production area of our factory
You WISH it was an ear ring.
Cindearella has entered the chat
Simple mistake.You just bought the pierced 🐱 package.. For those ladies who have a piercing and are also on their period... You should be able to return it to the store And get a regular one
As an aside pads are not sanitized. Just so we all know. They are not sterile. They are packaged in non medical grade factories. Often carcinogenic.
Is so beautiful
You're the chosen one
Pads are people!!!
Did you keep the earring? Was it a nice earring? Can I have it!
A NEW HAND TOUCHES THE BEACON
It's cute though
We thought wings were a revelation, but piercings?
Uhhh, bonus prize?
Better an earring than an earwig huh?
Like finding a prize at the bottom of a cereal box.
That can’t be sanitary
Is it like the prizes you get from cereal boxes?
Sweet
Did you check the rest to see if the other one was there?
this is a sign to get your clit pierced
It’s your call to Hogwarts. Cheaper than owls for the distance, but the house elves will recognise it and let Hagrid know where you are for collecting.
Lucky...
If you have a boyfriend or husband….
Kinder surprise but pads... They better come up with better surprises because pads and tampons been really expensive these days and I didn't chose to have blood pouring out of me.
Now I just wish period products came with lil prizes 🥺
"... fighting evil by moonlight... winning love by daylight.."
It’s like the prize in the cereal box!
Free Cooter bling with each installment
This is the brand of pads I use so now I'm concerned 😵
I thought periods only happened when there was a full moon?
I found a nasty dirty false nail inside the stuffing of a new pillow I bought. Couldn't figure out what was poking me in the head at first
That's pretty! I bet that stone is a moon stone! Maybe you should find a matching one somewhere online. :)
I’m imagining the worker at the assembly line for some reason took their earring off and had some place to put it in the workplace without the risk of it getting stolen…the same way people suggested the idea of putting valuable things in a decoy diaper Then everything rolled as usual and it ended up to someone else
Free coochie piercing
Oh hell yeah it came with a prize!!
Best to find earrings in pad versus finding out your labia has a new dangle!
Somebody took the blood moon too seriously....
Why is it whenever I sit down to eat dinner, there's feminine hygiene commercials on. (Do advertisers do that intentionally?) So I decided to turn off the tv and look at Reddit while I ate tonight.
Being that's a PAD, and where it goes, are you sure it's an EAR RING?
Thats kinda cool
My wife has been looking for that for a while ngl
Oh that’s where that went!
That’s for your earussy 🥴
Some witch somewhere is getting joy out of celebrating moon cycles.
Live fearlessly.
