    ARE any flushable now? I thought they were all meant to be put in the bin? (Something to do with the gel in them?)
    May all your dots fall silently to the ground.

    Found me a Mooncup in Boots yesterday for just £9.99! It was on the clearance shelf (which was extra-full due to a post-sales clearout I think).

    They had loads on there - I reckon they might be getting rid of them altogether, maybe there is a newer version coming out, or Boots aren't going to sell them any more?

    Either way, have a rummage round your local Boots clearance shelf and get one quick!
    Tried looking a couple of days ago but none to be seen and didn't have time to ask.
