Buying condoms online?

[ciphergoth]

Anyone know where can you buy kitemarked nonoxynol-9-free condoms cheaply in bulk online?

http://www.justrubbers.com/ is cheap but doesn't seem to have information about kitemarks.

http://www.condomia.co.uk/condomshop.htm has kitemarked condoms but not particularly cheaply.

http://www.postalcondoms.co.uk/ has kitemarked condoms at reasonable prices though.

Personally I've always had success with just going to cash & carry warehouse places like Costco (many are open to the public as well as trade). Don't know if there are any around here though.

Paying for condoms seems like very strange bahaviour to me. I know nothing about it. Sorry.

not all GPs and family planning clinics are terribly generous in the quantities they hand out - some will only give a pack of three, six or twelve at a time, which could potentially result in very frequent visits!

What sort of bulk are you talking about? Work gets through large quantities. We get most of them free, but we do buy some in 144 packs. I can look up where from tomorrow.

Most gay/bi sexual health places are far more generous / realistic with the freebies than straight ones.

Oh, and it should be difficult to get freebies with the evil N9. They should have been told, several times, why they're bad by the health authority.

There's a Costco next to... dammit, Paul lives in London now... :)

oh, I've never lived near a Costco that did this - I've always just relied on friends with Costco cards and nearby warehouses!

A 144 pack would be about right...

Thank You!

I get condoms from the needle exchange and the local GLBT organisation. Both will let you have as many condoms as you can carry, as well as free play piercing kit (from the former) and lube (from the latter). Everyone should be able to find a local needle exchange, they are very common. I have used a number of different needle exchange services and I have never found one that didn't also give out condoms in large quanities.

scarily, when i was networking at a local drug agency this week, i was given a sample pack of the stuff they give out to service users ... including a n9 condom.

as for my own work, we've recently banned n9 (thanks basically to ciphergoth for drawing my attention to livejournal posts about it!), although before that we always warned people about its tendency to irritate.

*amused by the concept of "free play piercing kit", but other than that... *

Okay, what does "kitemarked" mean?
