No.

Even sanitary towels are not exempt!

Neither exempt nor zero rated.

But aren't we lucky that we only have to pay the reduced rate :icon_roll

Thing is Cate, I wasn't joking! Every so often Mrs Spion will ring and ask me to get some on my way home. I've got two teenage girls at home too so we are always running low!

I tend to buy a load of 'normal' items too to avoid having to just go in for some ST's. A bloke thing I think!

Oh well, the girls will leave home eventually and the menopause will sort the other one out one day :icon_lol:

Hehe. Luckily the timings are not fully in synch - I usually get at least a fortnight of reasonableness per month.

Well it's a bit drastic if she still wants kids, but yes, that would work

VAT is payable on chocolate too. It's a disgrace.

If they are going to charge it on tampons they have to on chocolate, seeing as both are only essentials at about the same time of the month.
