Local Sam's Club was giving away N95s at the door - C(-)ris - 01-31-2022
I ran a youth hockey tournament this weekend and we ran out of a bunch of stuff in the concessions stand so I sent my wife to Sam's Club to pick up supplies. She came back with supplies and casually mentioned they were handing out prepackaged masks at the door for free. She asked for three masks thinking they would be nice to have, I took a look at them and they are the 3M Aura 9205+. She doesn't know anything about masks and had no idea that was $10 to $15 worth of mask. I could have used a few boxes of them, she didn't want to go back out there and I didn't have time so three is what we have. Oh, well. I have to travel for work soon and I'll use them on the plane.

Home Depot has some decent pricing on those.

Damn! Those are REALLY nice masks ... very comfortable and make a great face seal.

I like the Auras-the only downside is that I reuse them, and the nosepiece broke.

Same here, my preferred mask, but I keep hot glue around for when I need to repair them.

Those are nice. I wonder how they differ from my beloved 1870s - they look similar, and those are my favorite.
Here, some supermarkets and pharmacies are supposed to be giving them away - I think 3 per person. I haven’t been, since I have enough (and have been sharing mine with friends and family who will use them responsibly ).

Hmm, I'm going to swing by tonight and see how many I can get if they are still handing them out.

Not quite that much. Most places you can get them for about $2/mask (or less if you want to buy them in bulk). Still a good deal for you though.

Been considering cutting the strings, and adding laces of some sort to make them tie-aound-the-head style rather than around-the-ears style. I HATE around the ears, and most of them (like you) don't fit me...
