Potette liners

Does any one have any suggestions as to what I could use as a liner for a potette plus instead of the propper ones? I have tried nappy sacks but they are too small, what else could I try as the real liners are so expensive?

No suggestions for alternatives, but have you tried looking on ebay for deals?

I use sainburys basics pedal bin liners, with a basics sanitary towel (14p for 10) stuck to the inside, with a 'normal' potty. Would that work with a potette?

Didn't think of bin liners, thats a good idea. I bought basic sanitary towels but just need to find the right bags Thankyou

You're welcome! The bags are quite thin, so I tend to tie the wee-d in bag up, then put that into another liner and tie that up too,just to make sure there are no spillages en route to a suitable bin.

I use tesco pedal bin liners and add a basics ultra thin sanitory towel (works out about £2.20 in total for 40 liners) in my potette and have had no problems at all with leaks.

Excuse me, but what is a Potette? why do you use sanitary towels? (Genuinely bewildered!)

A potette is a folding potty that's easier to carry around than a 'normal' potty.

The sanitary towels soak up the liquid and stop it sloshing around so much until you find a suitable bin!

My friend also said about cheap bin liners with a towel in or kitchen roll. No way I would pay for the proper liners!

I use normal carrier bags and kitchen roll, carrier bags don't always have holes in them anymore
