I think you are the queen of first aid kits. I belive it was you that posted a link to a nice FA kit on sale a few months back that I promptly bought for my daughter. Thanks! This one at Sam's looks like a good kit too.
Thanks. This is an interest of mine and I am always looking for the best bang for the buck.

Comes in more different colors (we all want snazzy looking horses!)
The kit already comes with two Gauze Rolls and there is a compartment in the kit just for them.
Can CoFlex be used in place of an elastic bandage? If so, which of the two should be used in a first aid kit?
