Talking about Bathroom Routines…Awkward! RIGHT?
Thanks to Cottonelle for sponsoring today’s discussion on Getting over an Awkward Moment and providing YOU with a LARGE CVS Cottonelle Coupon!
Tackling awkward topics
Since starting this blog, I have taken on some tough topics including:
- light bladder leakage
- bladder incontinence
- Alzheimer’s
- aging parents
- foot problems
- GERD
- denture issues
Each time I have raised a topic, whether sharing a personal story or giving out tips, I have been surprised at the outpouring from my readers! They let me know that they too suffer from the issue or have a family member who does or are struggling to find answers.
Breaking the bathroom taboo
I find the most difficult topics to discuss are bathroom related ones, don’t you? Who do you bring those awkward topics up with? It’s often hard to discuss awkward subjects with your doctor, let alone friends, family, or in my case.. readers!
Yet, I have found over and over, that my readers appreciate it when someone FINALLY talks about the issues they are having in a real way. So here goes readers, we are going to talk bathroom routines and clean bums. EEEK! Let’s go!
Getting fresh with a One-Two punch
Basically my whole life, I have been using a single method for my bathroom routine…toilet paper. I always felt like it was sufficient, not perfect, but sufficient. So when Cottonelle asked me to try Cottonelle® Flushable Cleansing Cloths and Clean Care toilet paper together, I wasn’t too sure that wasn’t a TAD excessive.
Face it, I harbored my own unspoken stereotypes. I was terrified the Cottonelle® Flushable Cleansing Cloths would clog the toilet (they didn’t) and would leave me feeling wet (the steps are wet, then dry so that wasn’t an issue either). I had always assumed a wet + dry combination like this was for sick people. Not true, actually the freshness of using both a bum wipes coupled with toilet paper works for anyone.
Think about your own life, how many situations would this revolutionary addition of a cleansing cloth coupled with Clean Care toilet paper improve during your bathroom routine? Situations I can think of include everyday events to special situations like:
- after workouts and sports
- during your menstrual cycle
- in the summer when you sweat more
- after yardwork
- when you or a family member are sick
- just about anytime!
Try the one-two combination yourself! Exclusive HIGH DOLLAR coupon!

It sure helps with that issue doesn’t it Brett? Hope you checked out that coupon too! Shelley
Those wipes are lifesavers! I keep them in the car all the time for little messes and quick hand wipes.
Funny but I had never thought of them for anything but the bathroom but of course they could be used just like a regular wipe Pam. The CHief BLonde
Very tastefully done 🙂 We love the 1, 2 combo here and with all the high value coupons we can use right now its a great time to stock up. Thank you for sharing.
I used my coupon. It saved me about 10%! The Chief Blonde
I always have those wipes handy in my bathrooms. Thanks for the great coupon!
They are great for guests too! The Chief Blonde
Great coupon and great job talking about the not-so-pretty subjects! Everybody poops!
It was harder to discuss then I had anticipated but once I got going I found I had a distinct opinion and it got easier as I went along.
I love Cottonelle brand! I believe that once people use the wipes, they could never get along in the bathroom without them! Great coupon.
Isn’t that the truth Jen! The Chief Blonde
Oh during the mentstrual cycle for sure. And before sex for a little extra freshness. 😉
And after! teehee (blushes)
No doubt! 😉
Definitely a difficult subject to discuss but one that needs to be addressed. Thanks for the coupon!
We have used cottonelle for many years it is so quality, and we love the wipes too.
Welcome to our blog Susan. The coupon is really awesome as well. I too am a huge Cottonelle fan! The Chief Blonde
Thanks for the coupon! I love Cottonelle!
Welcome to our blog Brittany! Glad the coupon drew you in, it’s a fantastic one for Cottonelle isn’t it?
We love the Cottonelle wet wipes and their toilet paper is my favorite. Thanks for the super coupon.
We use Cottonelle in our house, too. My boys can’t seem to get the concept of wiping completely, so we LOVE the flushable wipes…..or I should say that I do 😉
Hey Robin, I think boys need these the most! Shelley
I still need to go out and purchase some wet wipes for myself because feeling fresh is so important and reading a lot of these posts from bloggers has me realizing that!
It’s a great coupon too Kayla. Dont forget to print and take it with you! Shelley
I use these wipes and love them!
Then you’ll definitely want to check out the coupon here: http://ooh.li/187efbd
What a touchy subject like you say. I will admit to once in awhile using the kids wipes and throwing them wrapped up in the trash. Having a wet wipe made for adults that won’t clog the pipes is awesome. It will take some convincing of my husband that they won’t clog the pipes but he would appreciate them once in awhile as well.
all those taboos are so true. we are a cottonelle family especially with their wipes. I’m printing the coupon thanks!
Thanks Dina! The Chief Blonde
I have some on my toilet tank right now!
It’s a nice feeling just knowing it’s there! The CHief Blonde
That’s a pretty nice throne you have there! We rely on Cottenelle’s clean care system in our home, there is no shyness when it comes to getting clean. We use flushable wipes regularly!
I love the Cottonelle clean routine! We use the wipes all the time. Good job talking about the “unmentionables,” which will be helpful for people experiencing these issues.
It’s a great coupon too Jenn! Hope you check that out too! The Chief Blonde
We keep these wipes in the guest bathroom, too. I hate being at someone else’s house and needing something a little…extra…to take care of things, but not having it. I notice that the wipes get used, too! Thanks for the great coupon.
Oh, in the guest bathroom is such a great idea Dede. Now I need to use the coupon and go get another container! The CHief Blonde
