You could always just have 4 on display and when they're used say you've ran out.x

I buy all my condoms from the NHS Camden online store, and buy a box of 144 of each type.

I recently paid ?13.99 for x144 Durex kingsize and I got a box of x144 pasante dotted for ?11.99

When they are that cheap, they can waste as many as they want really (I swear some waste them on purpose), it's literally pennies.

Buy in bulk girls.

Oh god that drives me crazy. I have a regular who does this to me all the time. By the end of the appt, the room looks like it's been raining condoms. And he is a serial texter, drives me up the wall. But he is a regular...


I might start telling him I've become a crazy environmentalist who is also scared of the radioactive waves my phone produces. Wonder if that wil work!!!!

I have on occasion got annoyed about the condom wasting thing and then had to give myself a talking to and remind myself that the things costs pence (or less in bulk) as other have said.

I think it's more the waste that I don't like, as I'm the sort of person who usually remembers to take her own bag to the supermarket or, if I've forgotten to take my own I cram as much as possible into each carrier because I can't bear the amount of packaging and rubbish we generate.

Same here - I think waste is always best avoided!

To be honest, though, I find it very rare that a client comes along who wastes more than one or two condoms without being open to the idea of oral/HR to finish rather than wasting the rest of his appointment time faffing about. In fact, I don't think I've ever seen anything like "Mr Multi-Millionaire" mentioned above, and if I did I probably would ask him whether he's donating any money towards environmental charities to make up for his personal contribution to the landfills!

Another option for clients who don't do well with condoms is to use a femidom. I've never used one before but apparently they've been improved a lot lately (no more "rustling noise"?!) so I plan to practice at some point so I can safely offer that option should it be necessary in future. Most clients would probably still choose extra oral/hand relief, but it's always good to have lots of options for them nonetheless.

Like condoms, they can be gotten for free from the GUM clinic next time you go for your checkup.

I hate it too when they waste condoms it annoys me.

i get 100 condoms from this guy for 20 pounds but I must see I am visiting the nhs store but if you have to buy online, I am going to avoid it to be  honest.

just have 2 out so they dont waste any

The packaging is pretty discreet hon.

This also really irritates me. I've had clients go through four of them, and argh, frustrating
