Do you get quidco points or anything if you buy it? That might convince me :rotfl:

I found it on boots.com for £19.99. 6.5% back through quidco!

£3.50 delivery - definitely cheaper elsewhere!

Before I go for it, does it come with a pouch, just that some shops show it as being in a pouch?

how many do you have to buy?

I got mine directly from mooncup.co.uk and it came with a pouch, and in a brown envelope that fitted through the letter box (if that is of interest to anyone!).

I have had mine since about march and would never want to go back to tampons again. It might sound a bit odd but it has really changed how I feel about getting my period, it's hard to explain but it isn't such a chore anymore and I feel like I can do things while I have my period that I wouldn't have done before when I used tampons.

After thinking for over a year, I eventually bought my mooncup last month and I am so pleased that I did, I only wish I had done it when I first heard of them.

TMI ALERT :
I have heavy periods that last for a week and often pass clots. I found that even on the heaviest days the mooncup coped. I did have to empty it every 3 or so hours on day 2,3 and 4, but this was no different to how often I have to change a pad or tampon on these days anyway.

I am so pleased with it and had no trouble getting the knack of using it (although I did have to cut all the stem off to make it comfortable).

And I can't tell you how smug I feel knowing I no longer have to buy pads or tampons!!

just 1. It's washable and will last for years.

I'm gutted as I just forgot that I was boiling my mooncup and burnt it dry!!! I've only used it 3 times and was loving it, silly me!!
I've got to get a new one I think I'll wait for extra boots points and try to get a pigsback voucher to pay £10 towards it.

I have known about these things for years and never tried it -- let the savings begin!!!
