LOL, I'll fight you on Curad vs. Band Aid.

Bang for the buck though? Meh, you gotta use more Curad to get the wound over with, but they're cheap and not nearly as shitty as the generic shit.

Still. Mediocre.

I feel like the Curad bandages I got in the stores always sucked, but I found different ones on Amazon (I know I know, I hate Amazon too) and they're bigger in comparison to Bandaids, noticeably better quality, and stay on forever if you don't pull them off.I've stuck one on and forgotten about it until over a week later when I realize its still on. I don't know why they're different than what I've always seen in the stores. I'm also wildly allergic to Band Aid brand adhesive to the point that I have scars shaped like bandages and I'm only very mildly allergic to whatever Curad uses.

Can you tell me the generic brand? LOL, let's just say I often need band aids.
