THE KIT YOU NEED WHEN YOU’RE SICK

Being sick is no fun and it’s especially annoying when you’re on your own and there’s no one to baby you. Here’s a list of supplies to keep handy in case you come down with a cold or flu.

Keep some medicine in your cabinet, such as Vicks DayQuil and NyQuil Cold and Flu Medicine and Afrin No Drip Severe Congestion Maximum Strength Nasal Spray. Store other supplies, such as Kleenex Trusted Care Facial Tissues and Campbell's Condensed Chicken Noodle Soup. Also, the Welly First Aid Kit, which includes bandages, ointments and ibuprofen, is useful to have in case of minor accidents.

And, if you find yourself sick at home alone without any medicine, you can always use a home delivery service, such as Instacart, to bring the supplies to you. It’s better than having to drudge to the drugstore.
