Abstract: A supply of absorbent panty liner pads formed by a contiguous longitudinal array of pad segments forming a strip. The strip has locally weakened zones to facilitate tearing off segments from the strip without the use of a cutting tool. Each pad segment is shorter than a standard panty liner pad so that approximately three segments are required to form a standard length pad. By tearing off two, three, four, or five segments in one piece, the user can create a panty liner having a short, standard, long or extra long length to suit her needs on any given day. The strip is wrapped upon itself into a roll so that pressure sensitive positioning adhesive strips are placed into contact with release surfaces formed on the strip, thereby protecting the adhesive prior to use without the need for release paper.
