Diva Cup.

So AF returned yesterday and I just finished my box of tampons. I Said when I finished it I was going to convert to the Diva Cup. Well I didn't know they Sold them in Stores because it's not at wal mart. I thought you had to buy it online. Coincidentally I went to Walgreens on a very rare occasion and found the Diva Cup there. I got excited BUT my best friend who is pregnant had a whole box of tampons from before She got pregnant that She gave me and will last me a few more months until I have to buy my Diva Cup. Kinda just venting but my question is, Has anybody tried both and have a preference between the Diva Cup and the Softcups.? I appreciate the idea of Sex with a Softcup but I prefer the concept of Something reusable long term. And has anybody used a Softcup with Sex.? I'm thinking of getting both but using the Softcups only for period Sex.
