Grab some toilet paper and wad it up, and place it where you would place a pad... It isn't the best, but it should suffice until you can find a store that is open. Also, I'd recommend grabbing a pair of underwear that you don't mind getting dirty, just in case there is a leak.

oh goodness. do you have any gladrags, or tampons, or anything? i assume not.
ok, i just got gladrags, and i can give you an idea of how to make them. get a hand towel (if it's thicker, it will work better than one that's old and worn) fold it up, and place it where you would place a pad. be warned, you may have to do this a few times, until the stores open. do you have any reusable rags? made of cotton or something. once again, needs to be absorbent. the very, very last thing i would do is use paper towels (not toilet paper) and layer it thick, as it doesn't hold much, and hope for the best for another 5 hours...

wad up some toilet paper and push it in a little bit, just so that it won't come out if you walk around. The put some old knickers on and wrap toilet paper around the middle section of them. Go to the shops as soon as you can.

can you borrow anything from your mother or sister or even next door neighbour? If not, i'm afraid its the good old folding some paper tissue and placing in on your knickers for you. Dont worry, its clean and we've all done it! but you might need to keep changing more often.
Also, do you have any tampons in?

do you have tampons? Maybe fold a bunch of toilet paper to make it look like a pad and keep it there... might be a bit uncomfortable but i dont know what else you can use until stores open...

Ok.. You have a few options
1) Layer of few wads of tissue paper and stick it in your underwear
2) Stick a washcloth in your underwear (an old one, blood does not wash out well)
Hope i helped good luck

what i have to do in emergencies like that is just put lots of toilet paper in your panties, also if your going to sleep put a towel underneath, if your that desperate you could always ask a next door neighbour or ask a friend? or find something that you own that could be used as an alternative for a tampon ;]

You can use washcloths and cut them up or fold them over and use pre-wrap or medical tape to hold them in place.
Use lots of layered toilet paper or paper towels..
use a tampon (: just kidding.
use an old shirt you can cut up and layer (prefferably a sweatshirt).
merry christmas & good luck!

Use a tampon or put some toilet paper in your underwear until you
can buy some pads.
I hope this helps and have a Merry Christmas!

Well I'm sure that women in the "olden days" used rags so if you have any old cloths that you can cut up it would be better than nothing.
