Little bit grrr at GreenBeans

I got my mooncup today!! Which cheered me up while I was dying on the couch (I love my puppies - they know Mum is sick, and didn't even bark when the courier came up the steps) - yay for GreenBeans!

It's different to what I expected - more solid ... though that's a good thing! I almost can't wait until I get to use it

I was a little wee bit bummed though - I really wanted to try their liners, but they have no stock, except for the robot design liners But, impatience won out over waiting for the new stock to arrive (new stock comes in every month according to the website), so I ordered one anyway Bummer though - my mooncup arrived, and there was a note on my invoice that the robot liners are coming in September. September! Bollocks!

I thought that was just a wee bit on the nose - although they have been great to deal with so far, so I actually feel bad whinging about it.

I did email and ask that when they get their new stock, could they substitute the robots for something else. Whether they will or not, I have no idea, but it was worth the ask I thought ... especially since I am the most un-roboty person on earth!

That'll learn me for not being patient! I have to be doubly patient now as penance

(Ha ha ha! Two Blondinis!! )

I just had an email back from GreenBeans and it seems ...



I should never have gotten out of bed this morning, or attempted to function while I have the lurg. 'Coming Sep' doesn't mean coming September, it means, coming separately ... as in, the liner will come direct from Outrageous. Doh. What a complete egg. I think I even read on the website that they do that, and it went awol in my faulty memory.

Yay for the liner coming though! Even if it is robots!!



I am such a dork.

I admire you using a mooncup Ginger, I can't imagine being excited about it's arrival, lol! All the greenies will hate me, but I just can't get that 'mother earth'... I do recycle plastic, glass and cardboard though!

It's a bit self-centered too Lulu - with endometriosis and all the problems it's caused me (incl the surgery being a bust) I thought that being a bit more 'natural' about things and keep the chemicals and cotton fibres etc out of the equation may just help things. It may not too, of course but I can only hope! I suppose it's a bit like IVF - its possibly a solution for us, to our infertility, so I'm willing to go above and beyond what I thought I might to possibly have that solution.

Oh, and P.S. As the mooncup comes under the 'shopping' umbrella, I can't help myself being excited!

I'm pretty sure Sarah has been snowed under, they recently moved to a bigger premises (yay for GB growing!!!) so I *think* they are still catching up on themselves.

If there are issues I'd just drop Sarah a freindly email, she really is a fab person and great to deal with.

And Ginger...Stacey is normally pretty onto with sending stuff out so you'll probably get your liner pretty promptly.

nah it's just thier super friendly service....I only really know Sarah and Stacey through the forums and far too many purchases!

You'll never be able to pre-order Outrageous! though....it's just luck of the sodding draw. *hissy*

ummm call me dumb but whats a mooncup??

I'm sorry Ginger, but having a wee giggle at "Coming Sep"

hmm interesting. thanks for that
could be the lack of chemicals in them to make them do that??
might have to look into them

BS - I don't use tampons at night, and probably won't use the mooncup at night either, so I want them for when I have a light flow at night where I need something, but just something light Plus, yes, while getting used to the mooncup, it'll assist my paranoia
