    whats up? Im about to buy a bulk order of condoms off smartpaddy.ie, unless someone can recommend a better site to get them from?

    anyway, the bulk order is 144 condoms for 60 quid. I want to make sure im getting the best 1s for this price and since ill be getting 144 of them! are durex generally the best (they are the most expensive anyway) but is this cuz marketting or quality? also how much safer are the extra safe? safety is of prime concern, dont want any minny leigh tex's runnin riot but would i be just as safe with any of the other types too?

    i also hear that its bad to keep a condom in your pocket or wallet, if thats the case how the f**k are u supposed to carry them around if youre on a night out?

    I got this email off a French friend of mine recently. Cheaper than what your going for.

    "FYI:

    The netherlands non-profit organisation jippy ( http://www.jippy.eu/index.php?id=4243 ) is proposing cheap cond.. (100 cond.. for 10 euros ).
    There is a string of these operations all around europe (in France http://www.condozone.fr/ ) , in order to promote safe s...

    As it seems the Irish government has no intention of reducing the vat on that kind of products ( despite the advice of one of his own agency : The crisis pregnancy agency www.crisispregnancy.ie ), here's a way to take the matter into your own hands.

    Hope it is of help.

    Check that they have a kite mark

    and after that how effective they are is based on how well they are used.

    Putting a condom or two in your wallet as you leave for a night out is fine.

    Leaving it there until you eventually get to use it a week or longer later is not fine as it can easily get damaged.

    One good one i dont see mentioned much and which is particularly great for the chick is Inspiral (cant remember the brand, but can be gotten in boots).
    *Just found website http://www.inspiral.tv/inspiral.html Might be worth a look for you anyway!

    Freedoms is another non profit conpany (set up by the NHS) bassed in the UK selling condoms and lube
    http://www.freedoms-shop.com/

    The condoms one person likes someone else may hate so it's up to you maybe before you get a large order get a smaller order to try out to see if you like them.
