    I spotted a BB at Duane Reade. Huge. On a display of Protect A Bed encasements.

    Also at Duane Reade (as per a bus ad), Atlantic Paste & Glue's (aka Catchmaster) new "bedbug detection system", essentially two layers of cardboard with channels for BB to travel through and glue dots to catch them.

    Maybe someone that had bbs was checking out the Encasements and it fell off of them. Now that's a scary thought.

    This one was 4" across, but relax. It was a graphic on the display.

    lol, "on a display" duh! I was thinking a live one on display. Interesting how one sentence can be interpreted differently.

    They really should stock the XL Ziploc bags with this display. My local store USED to carry them, but the shelf where they should be stocked has been empty for weeks.

    Am I the only one who feels like buying XL Ziploc bags is a purchase not unlike buying some funky antifungal ointment? I just feel like the checkout girl KNOWS why I'm buying them.

    I think stores can't keep XL Ziplocs in stock. This has always been true of Target.

    And then, a few weeks ago, someone told me drugstore.com ran out.

    Ci, wow -- I did not know Duane was hawking Protect-a-bed encasements. Only time I have seen bed bug-related products there -- a year or so ago, a massive display of Pronto. And only Pronto.
