Well, we're getting downright personal here, but no one else has recommended them, so I felt I should. Lunapads are washable, cotton (and you can choose organic cotton as well) pads for the female monthly visitor. In order to save money and stress on the environment, I decided to try them out. In the long run, they cost much less than buying disposable pads and/or liners, and I now contribute less to the ever-growing waste burden.

If you want to support women-owned and run companies, here's an opportunity. And, they're Canadian, so they're nice!

Most importantly, Lunapads are very soft and comfortable. They come in a variety of sizes and colors, and the company runs sales a few times a year, so you can get a good deal if you sign up for the newsletter.

Finally, it's not as gross as you think.
