Its the machine i want that shoots them in the fabric.
You might want to check out "menstrual cups" like the mooncup. http://www.mooncup.co.uk for your stores.
I've had one for three years now for everyday use They are quite expensive but you only ever need one. They take a bit of getting used to but they work just as well as tampons & much better than any type of pads. A mooncup would take a lot less space & money than a years supply of Tampax and beat fabric pads hands down which is why I'm giving them a shout. (And putting a spare in my BOB)
(No I'm not a sales rep for mooncup. I just don't know anyone else making this type of product)
Been thinking about this problem. Have 4x females in family, so this could be the answer the "MOONCUP", and the space that I will save........lovely. Wife will try one when we get some just out of curiosity so we could even save some more money here as well, and you never know she might actualy like them. Thanks for the link.
Mooncups, divacups and the like are fantastic inventions. However, ladies who have very heavy flow (usually 40+ but sometimes younger) will find them difficult to use. I don't want to get too descriptive here.

Another vote for the mooncup. The sizing of them can be a bit funky, I must be built on a slightly smaller scale being 5ft 2 as having anything larger than their smallest size would be pretty uncomfortable!
