We have been asked by the team at FabLittleBag, to find 500 UK female MNers (including 150-200 of their teenage daughters) to put their – well – fab little bags to the test when disposing of tampons out and about and at home and to share their feedback on MN.

We are looking for 150-200 of the testers to have a teen daughter (or daughter at home) to also try the bags and report back via their mum. You can apply to try them yourself, for your daughter or for both of you. All testers need to be regular tampon wearers, and ideally folks who struggle with the disposal of tampons: - perhaps you’re fed up of not finding a suitable bin when out and about, are fed up with having to use loo roll and nappy sacks or even always flush but would like to bin them instead?

The team at FabLittleBag say – "our new bags use clever finger loops to make tampon disposal easy, discreet and hygienic. The biodegradable bags are opaque and seal closed. They provide confident disposal every time, anywhere. We believe they are the best solution to tampon disposal. Period.
They come in a handbag pack of 5 perfect for ensuring confident disposal when out and about, and a bathroom pack of 20 to keep at home next to your tampons. You top up your handbag pack from your bathroom pack as needs be".

FabLittleBag's are available now at Waitrose, Ocado and www.fablittlebag.com – plus they will be available at Wholefoods from March. Bathroom Packs of 20 bags £2.99 and the re-fillable HandBag Pack £1.99 includes 5 bags for on the go use.

If selected testers will be sent both a Bathroom Pack and a HandBag Pack to get the full FabLittleBag experience – worth £4.98, and asked to try them during their next monthly period.

We'd then want testers to share feedback on a thread on Mumsnet about the concept, the ease of use and overall thoughts. You will also be asked to complete a survey about your views on the bags. If your daughter also takes part, they will need to complete a separate survey (or you can for them).

NB we're expecting this project to last a few weeks – we're looking for feedback to be all in around mid-April - note - this is a tampon disposal testing trial - so please only apply if you will be using tampons some days during the testing time frame and able to share the feedback.

Selected testers who add feedback as required will be entered into a prize draw where two winners will each win a £100 John Lewis voucher.

If you’d like to take part, please add your details here and we will be in touch with those selected soon.

Thanks and good luck

Thanks to everyone who has signed up so far...Smile

We asked the lovely Martha at FabLittleBag about the price and she says "our thoughtfully designed bags are eco-friendly and discreet, something which brings great convenience and confidence when you need to dispose of a tampon but facilities aren't available, or you simply want a nicer experience. To be honest, they are not really comparable to the thin (often) not eco- friendly nappy sacks - but we’d love to hear what you think about them once you've tried them! For those of you for whom Eco- friendliness is important, as well and being biodegrade, they are also 35% made from organic material, in this case sugar cane waste, all of which adds to the cost of manufacture but crucially to the value too. And to all flushers, come join the binning revolution!!”

@poorbuthappy

Why only tampons? Why not towels?

yes - they can be used for towels too as long as you roll up and cover the adhesive strip
