  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,217 ✭✭✭moonshadow


    Bleedin cheek of her..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,095 ✭✭✭Wurly


    If you were 12, yes. As a grown man, no.
    ;)

    They're only tampons t'jaysis.:)

    I think the shop assistant will have an inkling that they're not for you.... ha


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,101 ✭✭✭MitchKoobski


    Would you rather listen to her complaining about the cramps, and the pains, and the ordeal of having to go get them herself in pain because you never do anything for her when she needs it and is in pain and you wouldnt help and blahdeblahdeblahdeblah?

    Do yourself a favour and go buy the damn tampons. Fast.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,954 ✭✭✭Banjaxed82


    What's the big deal? What are you worried about? It's not like you're buying them to stick up your own hole.

    Bloody hell.
    No it isn't outrageous.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,198 ✭✭✭strokemyclover


    Bet she'll love you posting about it on After Hours when she eventually finds your username on your PC


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,595 ✭✭✭bonerm


    Just the tip of the gofor iceberg. After you've bought them be sure to stick one in each of your ears to avoid further requests.

    Still tho... asking a man to do her shopping is the core point of the original post. Absolutely wrong

    Have you got cotton buds and cellotape?

    It's not an outrageous request. Just use the self-service tills at Tesco if you're that paranoid.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 447 ✭✭AntiMatter


    It would be bady form if you didn't, OP.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 34,567 ✭✭✭✭Biggins


    No, do the decent thing and show you care.
    (Besides, if you don't - she will NEVER forget!)


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 32,865 ✭✭✭✭MagicMarker


    Just use a sock or something.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,293 ✭✭✭✭Mint Sauce


    When you go into chemist, also buy some condoms, and vasaline and await reaction.

    Not forgetting the latex gloves.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,752 ✭✭✭pablomakaveli


    Buy a slab of beer, a playboy and some lynx when buying the tampons so the checkout girls will know you're still a real man.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,699 ✭✭✭Santa Claus


    Be sure to keep 1 or 2 for yourself after you buy them in case you ever get a bad nosebleed !


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17,918 ✭✭✭✭orourkeda


    Tell her to man up.

    A bit of aul fanny blood never killed anyone.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,101 ✭✭✭MitchKoobski


    See if you have any sealant in the shed..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,009 ✭✭✭✭hynesie08


    Follow this advice TO THE LETTER (possibly nsfw)



  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,857 ✭✭✭✭Dave!


    I'd be morto if I were you, it's gonna be so embarressing walking to the feminine hygiene section, people will be looking at you wondering if you're some kind of sicko. Then you'll pick up the tampons (check nobody else is in the aisle when you do this) and people will see you walking around with them, they won't say anything but they'll be cringing. Then when you get to the counter, you'll be queuing up for at least a couple of minutes, and the people behind you will see what you're holding and you'll start going red. Then some young wan will serve you and she'll be like "Is tha' all?", and you'll be like "eh... yeah...", "WHA?", "Yeah...", and when you leave she'll be whispering to the other girls at the till and they'll remember your face in case you come back. I'd recommend buying a load of male hygiene products like Lynx and the likes, and just sneaking the tampons in there and hope that they don't notice what they are when they're scanning them. Pretty unlikely though, the packaging is very obvious and distinctive.

    In short, it's gonna be horrific, and if I were you I'd be dreading it. Horrific. You're f*cked.

    Theres nothing sexier than a man who is willing to buy tampons for his GF.



    Except a man who tucks his junk between his legs and dances around like the fairy queen


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,316 ✭✭✭✭amacachi


    Punch yourself in the nose on the way, make sure it's bleeding a lot and say you got jumped as you were walking past the chemist. Make you seem dead cool.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17,918 ✭✭✭✭orourkeda


    Will she be putting out any time soon

    Use the self checkout. No one will notice.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,269 ✭✭✭Piriz


    Girlfriend needs tampons........Dental Plan!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,706 ✭✭✭fonecrusher1

    Yeah but what if someone does spot them & says "HEY EVERYONE THAT GUY OVER THERE IS BUYING TAMPONS LOOK, NOT HIM....HIM??!!!"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,954 ✭✭✭✭Larianne

    No its not.

    I got my boyfriend to go out and get me tampons. Although, I was in hospital and couldn't walk due to him crashing the motorbike we were on so it only seemed fair.

    What's her excuse?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,386 ✭✭✭✭rubadub


    Use the self checkout. No one will notice.
    Except they are so light they will not register on the scales, then alarms go off, security come over with 6 auld ones and interrogate you and start calling out for price checks on heavy flow tampons over the intercom.

    I seriously expect if I was female I would have loads of them hoarded away, bought in bulk some place. I cannot remember ever running out of jacks roll in my house, or booze for that matter. It is something you KNOW you are going to have to use so I would have a supply at the ready.

    Make sure to ask for genuine Cherokee Hair Tampons.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 856 ✭✭✭Carl Sagan


    Go get the stupid tampons


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17,689 ✭✭✭✭OutlawPete


    When I was around 20, I was about to drive into town with my mates one night and before we set off, I stopped outside the local shop (where I knew all the female staff) and I asked the lads did any of them want anything.

    Few wanted the usual Bars, Crisps, Sweets, Drink etc and one mate also said he wanted a pack of Mint Lil Lets.

    I asked for them too :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,819 ✭✭✭✭peasant


    Just say "yes dear" head out and come back three hours later, pissed, reeking of drink, with a sixpack, a takeway and a rental DVD ...and no tampons.

    She won't trouble you again.




    Ever.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 645 ✭✭✭chicken fingers


    Give her an old sock, tell her to double up on underwear and send her off to do it herself!

    The words 'tampon' and 'dental' should NEVER appear in the same sentence in fairness...:p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,660 ✭✭✭veryangryman


    Been there

    Done that

    Bought the tampons


    Worse still, same girl asked me to accompany her 12 year old cousin who was getting her first one. The awkward handing them to her to get them at the checkout made me redder than a cherry :eek:

    Jack Daniels? Yes i needed 3 or 4 after that day

    Certain websites would strongly disagree.

    FFS, if you can stick your pénís up her vágíná, its no different to a tampon up her vágíná .. ffs..do her a favour and get out there and buy them out of your money...

    she'll appreciate you and will think "hey my b/f is so darn cool"

    sorry for the cupla focail eilé :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,740 ✭✭✭Asphyxia


    Jaysus :rolleyes:

    Suck it up and get them!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 141 ✭✭George83


    Not at all outrageous. They're only tampons ffs.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,204 ✭✭✭FoxT


    Crikey, don't suck it up! Yuckity yuck yuk!

    There may be an option available to you which would result in her not requiring tampons for a couple of months at least. If that aint on the cards, man up ffs & just go gettem.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,874 ✭✭✭✭PogMoThoin


    Its a well known thing for Wimmin to send Guys for tampons, to see if You'll do it, to prove You're worthy marriage material.

    My advise, GET OUT NOW!!!!!!!!!!! While its not too late. You're not gettin any for a bit anyways
