    Tampax Compak

    Hi, does anyone know where one can buy Tampax Compak (not the normal Tampax, 'Compak' are the shorter ones) in Hong Kong? Have looked in supermarkets, Watsons, Mannings but they all only carry the normal, classic Tampax tampons, not the 'Compak'.

    Many thanks!

    Not sold in Hong Kong. OBs might be your only option.

    Couldn't you just get a long one and use a pair of scissors?

    You should find, I'm pretty sure that I bought some here (I don't buy some often, but it's the only style I like). I probably bought them in welcome or parknshop in sheung wan/sai ying pun
    For many products in HK, you find one day, then you don't for 6 month, I have never really known why!

    If I see some, I let you know!
    (if you see cinnamon Eclipse instead, only available once every 4, 6 month, please tell me )

    I have seen them very rarely but I have seen them. If you see them, I suggest you buy the whole shelf - that's what I do with the really rare stuff! Or bring in a few boxes from overseas or get a friend to post to you (at least they are not heavy to post!).

    Wait until you go shopping back home, then clear the shelves.
    It's interesting watching the checkout handler's reaction.
    God bless the new self serve checkouts in Aus!

    Perhaps there should be a tampon black market?
