Why do they have to cost so much. I was walking round boots today and I noticed that they only have one type of non latex condoms and they were sooooo damn expensive. £7.99 for a pack of 5!! Surely they want us to have safe sex? Why should it cost so much? I've been to the clinic and every time they didnt have the right type of condom for me. Not helpful.
Beep boop. I'm a bot.

lovehoney ones
only thing is then you have to pay for delivery....unless you buy over £30 worth!
are they latex free ones though?
Oh yes, I forgot Stupid stupid stupid :banghead: :banghead: Are you sure though? How come it doesn't? Its like the same thing, eh.
Poo, forget my previous post then sorry
Some high street retailers do seem a bit expensive, especially if you've been a bit busy.
At least sex is a choice - I think paying £120 for a pair of glasses is expensive and no one asks to be short sighted.
a few years back when me and my mate were 15, she was worried she was pregnant so we thought we'd go to the drop in family planning centre, but the receptionist told us it was only on on a thursday!
So what if you have sex on thursday night, your condom slips, and you need the morning after pill? :eek2:
Meanwhile the government sit back and wonder why all these teenagers are getting pregnant :banghead:
Our town has a clinic (well, did have) that they promoted all around the school - it was aimed at under 16's (i.e school kids) but anyone could go obviously...
Sounds good doesn't it? There was a slight catch though....
It was only on on a Monday and Wednesday, between 11am and 1pm.
Once we pointed out that these were school hours and we'd have to skip school to go, they soon stopped promoting it.
Whether it's still on I don't know. :rolleyes:
Had to call my docs. stupid clinic. Its closed on weekeneds too
theres a lot of people in this thread posting prices and stuff, but i dont think you are talking about latex free ones, which were the origional question in the thread
Completly of topic. Just wanted to say love your avatar.
i buy mine in lidl. they sell 12 packs for £2.50.
i can't afford to pay £4 for a 3 pack of durex and more for a 12 pack.
I'm still really surprised if they can't give latex free condoms to you for free, I'm sure you shouldn't have to pay for condoms.
It would make me tempted to deliberately catch lots of knicker-nasties just to cost them loads of money putting me right again (okay so it's not that tempting).
Are there any charities that could help you? Brook maybe?
You could do a "AskTheSite" as I'm sure somebody out there must be able to help you...
