Here's the QOTD. What do you keep spares of in your purse?
I always have extra tampons in my purse. AF came to visit today and I have no tampons in my purse. I took them out on Sunday and packed them in my bag for camping. Great! Now I'm waiting for lunch time so I can go to Target and get a box.

Re: Spares
I used to always keep tampons in my purse, but I haven't needed them for like 6 years so at some point I threw those out. I keep deodorant, Band-Aids, some kind of painkiller (ibuprofen, Aleve, Tylenol), and a mini pack of tissues in my purse at almost all times - but not when I'm carrying a small purse when I'm dressed up. I also carry my makeup bag with extra powder, concealer, tweezers, a nail file and nail clippers in it and always have those with me.
I don't know if these things count as 'spares', really, but I have full-sized versions of these things at home that I use regularly, and the purse stuff is like an emergency back up.
God, you're so gross and offensive. :-P
If you want gross and offensive.....
a friend of mine had a roommate who used the Diva Cup, and she used to wash it and then leave it to dry in their dish rack. Not something I want to see next to my cereal bowl.
WHAT IN TARNATION IS A DIVA CUP!!!???
i feel like it is something i shouldnt be googling on my work computer...

I am also in the dark about a Diva Cup. I feel like it should be what you call the person of honor's cup at a party, but I feel like it is a menstrual cup. Which is not a party, ever.
As to the original question, I don't keep spares of anything in my bag, but I do keep a lot of crap in there.
Yep, it's a menstrual cup. I wasn't sure about the idea at first, but now love mine. And it's way more EF than throwing tampons down the toilet every month. :-)
