Boots Muffles Wax Earplugs

Up until earlier this month, and the eviction of my downstairs neighbour, I was relying heavily on earplugs to get some much needed shut-eye. My neighbour was partying most nights, with music on full-blast, and at one point had a game of indoor football at 4am in the morning. Urgh! After trying numerous methods to get him to shut the hell up - including lowering my ankles from bed and simultaneously bashing them vigorously against the floor like crazy - I decided to dip my toe (or ears I should say) into the earplug market. I stumbled upon Boots Muffles Wax Earplugs in my local boots, and quickly snatched them up. This was going to be my ...  Read the complete review

Life isn't always exciting. It isn't always full of things you enjoy and look forward to. It isn't always what you would have expected. Sometimes there are times when what we are doing is just plain "ordinary". Not exciting - dull, boring.......but these times are also essential to allow us to carry on the rest of our day/life and we should appreciate them just as much as we do the other, more exciting things, as without them we would be in a muddle. The same goes for the things we buy - the nice things, the exciting things...they are things we like, that give us a lift as we pay for them, that make nice meals to share with friends or family, ...  Read the complete review

For many years I worked an evening shift, either finishing at midnight or 2am. With three small children to get ready for school in the morning, this played havoc with my sleeping patterns. I'd been using earplugs for a few years, the soft, squashy kind that they provide you with on planes. However, as anyone who uses these things knows, they're pretty much a waste of time. Well, they do absolutely nothing for me. Unless you jam them into your ears then keep your fingers firmly wedged in your eardrums, these types of earplugs simply 'pop out' and in floods the noise. For many people, perhaps those living in nice quiet areas, soft earplugs may be ...  Read the complete review

After moving to a very noisy location (which features loud neighbours, buses, rubbish trucks and lots of cars) from a very quiet one, I found that I was being woken up by the slightest noise. You can get earplugs from lots of shops but they always seem to be made from foam, which I find are useless. The only ones that actually lower the noise level AND stay in my ears all night are Boots Muffles. The name explains exactly what they do. Rather than completely blocking out noise, they reduce and muffle it, allowing you to have much better sleep but meaning you can still hear your alarm clock in the morning. They cost £2.19 for five pairs which, as they are supposed to ...  Read the complete review
