Never mind Divacups...here in the UK we have something called a Mooncup which I think is very similar. Not something I'd choose, but the testimonials make for interesting reading...not only does Mooncup/Divacups save money and (ahem) the environment...they also inspire you to create art with the contents...if you're not using them to help your garden grow....eugh!
And another eugh-y cup is the one one with the two girls....yes, shame on me, I googled it (but from home - I've learned my lesson!). I wish I could stop myself googling your suggestions Sam, but I can't!
Hey! I've heard about those that recycle the Divacup contents to water their gardens, thus adding protein to the soil. Sure gives a whole new meaning to "cherry tomatoes", eh?
Ok, folks, how about this..... use your "collections" to attract wildlife (beavers and bears?) to those obnoxious people's campsites and away from yours! Cool!
Ok, everyone, here is a link to the Instead Cup: http://www.softcup.com/
There's a VIDEO - with insertion instructions included - and you can be its friend on MYSPACE!!
Talk about a personal hygeine product!
I am oh so tempted to have a look at the video...I'm not going to!!! It seems a lot more user friendly (although not reusable and rather pricey) than the diva or moon variety...and it 'loves making love' too...how lovely :)
Question for Sam...would Nan's suggestion of using diva/moon/instead contents to attract wildlife to your neighbours count as the kind of mischief you were suggesting???
I actually use the Diva Cup, and it isn't as bad as you'd think! It's not any nastier than pulling out a bloody tampon, you just dump the junk into the toilet and, if in a public rest room, wipe it off with TP and re-insert! Wash it when you're home and you're good to go.
And to the crunchy morons who do something other than dump the contents down the toilet - you desere a kick in the ass! that's nasty!
