Behavioural communications for business and government using our hidden quirks and apparent irrationalities


Monthly savings plan


The Mooncup Reusable Menstrual Cup is an alternative to tampons (shown on the left). It’s a medical-grade silicon cup designed to collect menstrual fluid rather than absorbing it like a tampon.

The Mooncup is reuseable, so you only need to buy one.

Now, we can all work out that helps with landfill ‘n’ stuff, so eco-benefits abound, but did you know that tampons are taxed as if they are a luxury item? Bread – for instance – is considered a staple so is therefore free of taxation. That’s OK. And luxury goods are taxed. That’s OK too – up to a point.

But tampons? luxury? It doesn’t sound right.

The Moon cup will save you money every month because of its clever design – but SO WHAT! unless it makes your life easier. Now, I have no idea whether it would be good, bad, or indifferent. But These women and these women think it’s OK. So I figured it’d be OK to write about – if only to highlight that it exists, not to give opinion on whether it should be used: You can do that.

Is the Moon cup a good idea?
