These earplugs are the best deal I've found over 3 years of using earplugs. I've looked and looked, nothing comes close to this deal Amazon US offers, and now it has free shipping with Prime! They're quite soft and comfortable, great if you're new to using earplugs. After getting these to block out my wife's snoring, they changed my life forever. Earplugs are great, especially if you travel.

Earplugs are great for blocking your significant other's snoring, sleeping in dorms, sleeping in noisy hotels, blocking out plane noise without music, concerts and other situations where you might want to protect your hearing.

Use CamelCamelCamel for Amazon US to see price history. There's a chance you can get these even cheaper if you can wait and the free shipping deal continues.

    I placed a triple order just before Amazon.com stopped shipping to AU. Great product and good price given the conversion rate.

    Why does it say 6 pairs in the description, but 50 in the picture?

    • Murdrum on 20/06/2019 - 22:36

      Bug in the Amazon AU listing 🤷‍♂️ The description is the only place it says 6 pairs. Pictures, description and comments are for 50 pairs.

    • Vool on 21/06/2019 - 11:00

    I find the Haward Leight earplugs more comfortable, they're softer, so you can wear them for longer without discomfort. Also better if you have smaller ear canals. They're also slightly cheaper if you buy in bulk: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Howard-Leight-Honeywell-Laser-Li…

    • O O on 20/06/2019 - 23:44

      Do you know how Howard Leight compare to Mack's Dreamgirl?

      • macrocephalic on 21/06/2019 - 09:43

        I haven't tried those. I wear them on a motorcycle; once I found the Max Lites (or laser lites) I bought a box and haven't changed.

    • matt-ozb on 21/06/2019 - 10:56

      +1 for these Howard Leight .. they are amazing .. although in your eBay link, they are twice the price of what I paid about 1 yr ago.

    • stockastics on 15/07/2019 - 16:53

      I have been using the howard laser lite for 5+ years..best thing ever..noise cancellation of 32db i think..

  • chakel on 20/06/2019 - 23:49

    I think this is for 6 pairs. I just ordered and the invoice says 6. that’s not a bargain at all.

    • Murdrum on 20/06/2019 - 23:55
      +1

      It's an error in the title of the Amazon AU listing. Check the listing and it's only the title that says 6 pairs. Price is consistent with Amazon US listing for 50 pairs.

    • O O on 20/06/2019 - 23:55
      +1

      The Mack's Dreakgirl 50 Pair is selling for $14.57. It sounds like 50 pairs is more likely, But I maybe wrong.

      EDIT:

      I just checked the Q&A session

      Question: Is this 50 or 6? Title says 6 but the product description says 50. Please clarify.

    These are without doubt the gold standard in ear plugs, and yes The Phantom conducted a comprehensive survey over a number of years.

    Just don't roll the siliconish crap over onto itself and you'll be fine.

    • carlitos on 21/06/2019 - 10:36

      Why not roll it over onto itself?

      • [Deactivated] on 21/06/2019 - 12:33

        Because you end up destroying it - you'll get internal surfaces that aren't the silicone stuff but your ear wax. As long as you're careful with restoring it to shape after pulling it out of your ear they'll last many weeks.

        Note these have especially soft silicone - i don't know how they do it, but it's not your average silicone-based material. Forget all the other silicone ones - they're just too hard.

        Also don't cut it in half - use it whole as described on the pack.

        I wear them so i can't hear myself snoring.

        • John Kimble on 21/06/2019 - 14:57

          I cut one in half and it works fine for me. One per ear is just too much for me.

          You hear yourself snoring?! Crazy!

          • [Deactivated] on 21/06/2019 - 15:06

            @John Kimble: I used to do that, but then went the whole.

            Snoring ref was a joke…

    • wizzy on 21/06/2019 - 15:50

      I agree that the antinois ones are absolutely the best ear plugs at blocking out noise, however, I need to use a new pair every night or I get outer ear infections. That ends up being very expensive, which is why I switched to Mack's - which are still pretty good

      • [Deactivated] on 21/06/2019 - 16:55

        I use metho to dry the ear out after a shower. I just lie down on my side, pour it in, listen to it absorb all the residual water, and then turn over so it all pours out. Checked with an ENT years ago and he didn't think it was such a problem apart from it drying the ears out a bit. Divers use metho all the time instead of that $10 crap from the Pharmacy. Check with your doctor first as i'm just a random on OB. Give it time to dry/evaporate before putting in plugs. Don't do any of this shit if you've got an outer ear infection. I used to get outer ear infections all the time - no longer.

        Also Macs will push wax into your ear - less risk of that with the Antinois.

        • wizzy on 21/06/2019 - 17:02
          +1

          Thanks I will look into it.

          Neither antinois nor Mack's cause me outer ear infections as long as I use a new pair every day. I only switched to Mack's because they are cheaper than antinois and still work pretty well.

          This particular deal is especially good for my wallet!

  • GreenLego on 21/06/2019 - 01:42

    What's the difference with these? You can get 60 pairs for 23 cents more:

      I got these earplugs awhile ago.
      I can only compare to earplugs I got from work (no idea what brand/type), I found these ones to not fit as tight as the ones I got from work. Hence they don't block out the sound as well.

    • Melb69 on 30/06/2019 - 11:35

    My partner snores and I can still hear her through plugs. Still have to use pillow over head. Still better than nothing. Mind you to be fair she says I snore as well, but sleeps through my snoring. Once l'm awake and hear her I cant get back to sleep. It's a random snoring, but constant when she's sleeping on back.

      try putting the pillow over her head instead. that should stop the snoring.

      • scuderiarmani on 21/06/2019 - 11:02

    Thanks I use these all the time for my husband's loud snoring and normally pay around $6 for a pack of 5 pairs at Coles/Woolworths. They make another type specifically for snoring which I find are better, but they are around $9 for a pack of 5, so I use the regular ones (they are good enough).

    Here are the specific snore blocking ones if anyone is interested:

      I use the Max Lites for motorcycle riding - and have for a decade now. I tried some others before hand, but found they weren't as comfortable

    • Murdrum on 21/06/2019 - 14:49

      I usually have earbuds connected to a Sena headset. These would block out an amazing amount of sound on the bike. Some riders would be concerned about the safety of not being able to hear things around them.

      • Butt Scratcher on 21/06/2019 - 16:06

        Wait, earbuds connected to headset? Whats that?

        Or is it just the headset themself thats blocking sound?

        • Murdrum on 23/06/2019 - 16:42

          This sort of motorcycle bluetooth headset. The Sena device connects to your phone via bluetooth, then I have some regular cabled earbuds that run from the device on the helmet into my ears. So the earbuds give some noise isolation and you can listen to music or make phone calls. The headset has a really great noise cancelling microphone.

            @Murdrum: Oh i see, so instead of attaching the speaker that comes with it to the helmet, you attached the ear buds to the headset.

            Neat! not what I was hoping though

    • Murdrum on 21/06/2019 - 14:50

      Wear them correctly and they'll be comfortable and not be a problem at all inside your helmet.

    • stickyfingers on 21/06/2019 - 16:24

    Ordered the Amazker ones on Amazon. Did a review and recieved refund. So only $7 for 60 and a small al case. Not bad, but you do need to get it right to keep it in the ears while sleeping.

      sounds like a good idea to use them correctly.
