You should be able to get a box of ten for around $10 on eBay.
Anything you can do to disinfect it will probably cost more than the cost of
the bandage.

Perhaps. I didn't know that they were so cheap (I got my first few "free"
from the hospital on discharge -- ha, ha, "discharge"). But I'm going
through about one a day now -- I hope they're as cheap as you say even in
drug stores.
Thanks for your response, in any event,

Michael, why would you want to keep something around your house that
has MRSA-infected body fluids on it? Yuck. Throw it away and follow
Jeff's advice.
