Please ladies, if you need to save money, surely there is a better way than this!

Actually, the menstrual cup is a great way to save money. I bought mine for about $30. It lasts 10 years-- that is $3/year, or $0.25/month. A lot cheaper than disposable products.
I use a different brand of menstrual cup called the Diva Cup. It is made out of silicon. I have been using it for about a year and absolutely love it. It is very easy to use (and clean) and I've never had an issue with leaking. I have recommended the cup to all of my friends, and have even sold a few on buying one.
Using a reusable alternative to disposable pads and tampons has a lot of benefits- financial, environmental, and even health benefits. A lot of women have found menstrual cups to be the best choice for them (including myself).
