Just a quick vent about Huggies Baby Wipes!
Usually we buy the Superdrug Wipes or Pampers Wipes, however went out for the day and didnt have any so just needed a pack. Saw that Huggies were a £1 in Boots and bought them.
Only problem being that it is impossible to get just one wipe out of the bleedin' packet because they were so so moist you couldnt just pick one up!!
Without exxageration you would be getting 6/7 at a time!
I know it may seem a little problem but not only is it wasteful but also annoying!!
This was the pack: http://babygenie.files.wordpress.com/2009/06/everyday-wipes-2.jpg
Anyone else had this problem or is it just a dodgy pack?

I use these all the time. They are much better than the own brand ones, much thicker and I can use 2 on a dirty bum, rather that 5 or 6 of own brand.
You just have to be careful pulling them out yank and you will pull 10 out. Unfortunately with the huggies ones they seem to be a 2 handed operation rather than one handed!Member for a long time only recent poster

To all those who post comps, no wins yet though!0 -
just shove the wipes back in the packet. Looks a bit squashed but what does it matter.
LOL!0 -

Why are people so critical on these forums!?
The reason it ended up with me wasting a silly amount is because I was in the cubicle with my sister,lots of shopping and her bent over saying 'you can wipe me now' and with someone on the door wanting to get in.
Thats not the issue anyway, you should be able to get one wipe, not seven at a time.0 -
we have always used huggies pure wipes. Definitely the best in my opinion ... i have a squeamish tummy at the best of times so good wipes are a must for cleaning dirty bums. Like the others I find that supermarket ones tend to be too thin ... i also find some of the others have weird holes in them almost like a matt effect ... didn't like those at all.
We got the box too so just rip the bag open, put them in the box, job done!0 -

People weren't being critical they were offering you a solution (to push them back in the packet) How was everyone to know the situation when you had this problem as you didn't put it in your original post we're not psychic.
If your going to take offence at every little comment your going to be permanently frothing at the mouth. Take it for what it was some friendly advice0 -
I think that they good and haven't noticed any probs getting them out one at a time.0

I agree on the quality but it is a pain when you can pull them out easily0 -
