In mini-markets, like VinMart, you'll definitely be able to find pads. At Circle K (mini-market chain), there seems to be non-applicator tampons (Tampax and Helen Harper). | ||
* If you want a wider selection of tampons, it's recommended to check out grocery stores or larger convenience stores. In particular, you should check out L's Place, Circle K, the pharmacy in Syrena Shopping Center and Vinmart in Times City (carries some Japanese tampons). | |||
