There's nothing worse than starting your period while out and having no provisions, and that is just what happened to me. I had to take a ridiculously large pad from a friend just to get through the busy day of errands, and when I got home I felt awful. I was bloated, tired, in pain, and on top of that stuck with a ginormous pad! Of course it was also a day i decided to wear no panties, so i was stuck with a bulky pad just stuck to my leggings! It was so big it practically stuck out of my waistband! You could see it if I bent over, since my "winter leggings" were practically see-thru.
