Combating the Sickies with Kleenex Brand

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Kleenex Brand.

Cold and Flu season is upon us and it is imperative to be well stocked up in a house with little ones. TOO many times I've waited until someone in my house is already sick and then having to venture to the store is on the very end of my list of priorities! We are avid Walmart shoppers so before cold and flu season I pick up several boxes of Kleenex Facial tissue when I'm in that aisle. It's always so convenient and easy to find. I don't know about you, but when I'm sick I don't want to have to use toilet tissue to wipe my nose-- I want my favorite (the Kleenex Facial tissue with Lotion) that doesn't tear up my nose! It's better to be prepared ahead of time! I also keep the staples like Chicken Noodle Soup, lemon-lime soda, and hot apple cider packets on hand too just in case the sickies hit! 

I know something that I really appreciate when I am sick is when friends stop by with the essentials from the store, a warm home cooked meal or a coffee from my favorite place. Kleenex Brand is proving that no matter how big or small the moment, the act of giving a Kleenex Facial Tissue to someone who needs one can connect and uplift us all. Kleenex Ultra Soft Tissues are the #1 preferred Ultra Tissue. For delicate skin, care for your sniffles and sneezes with the extra soothing softness of Kleenex Tissue with Lotion (those are my favorites!). 

With little kids I feel like we're getting sick SO often! All it takes to spread germs and sickness in the workplace or at school is a cough, sneeze, or an unwashed hand. And since the nurse in me likes to do things the "healthy" way--the CDC suggests coughing and sneezing into a tissue then throwing it away to prevent spreading illness to others. Unlike other facial tissues, Kleenex Facial Tissue is actually designed to shield a cough or sneeze to help keep stuff off of hands.

This cold and flu season, you too can visit the Walmart pharmacy section and stock up on Kleenex facial tissue so you’re prepared to share one with someone who may need it. You can also take advantage of an exclusive Walmart offer while stocking up: receive a $5 VUDU credit when you purchase either a 4-pack of 75-ct Kleenex Ultra Soft Tissues or Kleenex Tissues with Lotion (some will have stickers that denote coupon and some will not, but all of the Lotion/Ultra Soft 4-packs are eligible). That's a sweet deal that I can't wait to take advantage of!

A few weeks ago one of my friends wasn't feeling too well and had two sick kiddos. I love making gift baskets so I ran to the store, stocked a basket with the essentials- including Kleenex Facial Tissue with Lotion- and left it on her door step! Sometimes sometimes small makes ALL the difference. And hopefully helped keep the rest of her family from getting sick too!

Right now you too can receive a $5 VUDU credit when you purchase either a 4-pack of 75-ct Kleenex Ultra Soft Tissues or Kleenex Lotion Tissue. Some packages will have stickers that denote coupon and some will not, but all of the Lotion/Ultra Soft 4-packs are eligible.  You can find out more here. (“Redeem by purchasing qualifying item and star/check the item(s) and the date of your receipt. Snap a clear photo of the entire receipt with your phone. Text CAREPACKAGE to 811811 for submission instructions. Please allow 48 hours for processing.")

What are some ways that you prepared for the sickies at your house? What am I missing out on?

Happy Thursday!
