Fountain Syringe, What store did you get yours at?

I bought a 2 quart Fountain Syringe from Buy Rite about 6 years ago, but don't see it available anymore. Does anyone know if they are still selling them. I kind of like it...

I think CVS sells the same stuff.

I'm not real sure how to answer that guys, but out here in the west, Longs drug still carries the Faultless, 2qt douche bag. They usually sell for around $12.00, but the last time I was there, they were on sell for $5.00, so I bought three. I think I better check to make sure that it wasn't a close out sell.

I have the same problem and have not been able to locate a folding syringe either.

I have checked all the drug stores and pharmacies in the area. All I find are combo bags and bulb type syringes. Perhaps on line would be a good place to start.

I went to the CVS in my area all they had was Fleet Disposable Enema and Douches. I asked the clerk and she didn't even know what I was talking about when I asked if they had any fountian or combo bags in stock. Ted

Try ebay. There are currently 3 or 4 folding syringes up for auction or 'buy it now'.

The 3 'buy it now' syringes sell for about $15 each plus postage. I believe they are made of latex and are yellow in color. Just type into the search box, 'folding syringe' and it will take you there.

Hat bag if its Pink, was made for Rexhall Drugstores in the mid to late 60's...They were designed to be attached to the wall next to the tub...And you would open the bag, fill it and take your enema in the tub..They are quite the "antique"..Hold on to it, especially if it still has the pink tubing...

I know , because my wife got one from her mother as a wedding gift.we were married in 1967. I still have the bag...

I purchased an old pink folding bag a few years ago, and it fell apart in a couple of years---not with hesavy use. the new ones are very shabby. the hole for hanging the bag comes loose very quickly and the bag is then useless. to day they sell folding vinyl bags thet have a stick on the wall hook for hanging. i just bought one for 8.88 plus the cost of the mail. i am waiting for it now. check them out on the net.,

I got 1 at at yard sale a few years ago with 2 nozzles.

Sure-lots of places sell enema gear.Most every drug store has enema bags.Sometimes they're called fountain syringe,combination water bottle or combination douche/enema syringe.Probably the most well known store is at your local Walmart.Look around the vitamin section and close to the rubbing alcohol.You can buy a nice 2 quart size enema/douche hot water bottle style for around $5.Great for starters and you can't beat the low price.

Is it just me, or where I live. But not to long ago you could walk into any drug store and find the isle where the enema equipment was. There were more 2 0r 3 different brands, and a few different styles of each. Well all of a sudden, I can't find them in Rite Aid, CVS, or Wallgreens. Whats going on. Anyone have a answer.....Tony

The drug stores (CVS, Rite Aid & Walgreens) in my area sell one style of the bags and are locted on the bottom shelf of the feminine hygiene isle.

A few years ago wegman's still had them

have not checked here in VA--but I suspect they are hard to find

hmm--maybe not---I'm gonna make it a goal to check

Today's stores carry a very limited selection if they have them at all.

Locally the Walgreen's has them on the bottom shelf by the laxatives. Other stores have them in the feminine hygiene area near the disposable douches.

Check again, In CVS,and Rite Aid, well here on Long Isalnd in New York , they don't seem to have them in the store, Will chek walgreens tomorrow....Tony

I got my first and only bag at Wal-Mart of all the horrible places. It was right next to the Summer's Eve and other such supplies, tucked in the back without a price tag and an inch of dust on top. Rang up for $3.95, and I haven't been happier.

Mind you this was after checking EVERY SINGLE PHARMACY WITHIN A FIVE MILE RADIUS... I went to over 10 places before trying Wal-Mart -- your source for cheap plastic crap!

You can still find a basic closed top enema bag at Walmart for about $5.00 or less.Look near the vitamin section,next to the rubbing alcohol and hydrogen peroxide.

I work at a "Wallyworld" and we don't carry any bags, just disposables. Here in central Ohio we have a major discounter, Meijer. They carry the Cara brand open and closed tops, folding syringes and douche bulbs. The Cara brand bags are good quality and they look just like the old Davol bags, as far as shape and nozzle dimensions. I think when Davol stopped making flat rubber goods, they sold their molds to the Cara Co.

I bought my last "get me by" fountain set at a Walgreen's in Cromwell, CT

I would also add that if you wish anonimity, just use the auto checkout, not the cashier. Of course if it's busy that day then maybe you want to wait.

I purchased a nice 2 qt bag at a medical supply place in Apache Junction, if remember correctly it was on Broadway, there listed in the phone book

Cooptimo - Good advice. With my luck, the automatic checkout wouldn't work and the lady would come over and hold it up and announce over the PA: "Price check on the two quart, red combination enema/douche/fountain syringe?" !!!!

Yes the best place to buy is good old Walgreens....

Best place is to buy online. Drugstore bags are in (drum roll...) drugstores. Better stuff is a places like klystra.com, medicaltoys.com, bethtyler.com etc. However, you can have lotsa fun with a good ol' douche bag (the douche tip is better than the enema tip as it goes in further and is more rounded). Experiment. Even those "Shy" douche syringes are a load of fun.

Like Leser I too had a "malfunction" and needed another bag. I was In Wal Mart and decided to get one of theirs. When I got it home and opened the box I had a very pleasant surprise. The combination bag is very good quality, heavy material. The fill opening is a bit larger than previous models (at least it seem like it to me). the tubing while stiff had no kinks in it and flows the solution well. It looks like this bag will last a good while.

While traveling recently by myself to Key West, I picked up a combination enema-douche kit at the local CVS pharmacy, and it was fine. Quality seemed to be fairly decent, and I enjoyed it's use several times....unfortunately solo, but still enjoyable.

You are lucky Matt, every time I buy one the hose is all kinked up and it seems like forever to fix it.

Marvin the kinked tubing buy a dowel rod at say 1/4 in and slide it in the tube and immerse it in cold water so it will adapt shape with a form in place

I too was very pleased with the Walmart bag. I sometimes use them when travelling. The quality is nice and the red rubber bag has that wonderful scent. The douche nozzle is nice and smooth.

Wal Mart is also a great place to buy "adapted" enema equipment. Go to the sporting goods department and look around the boat motor accessories. They sell a bulb type priming pump for use with portable tanks and an outboard motor. This make a great Higgson. Withthat you don't even need a bag when on the road. Just fill up the ice bucket with whatever you want to use and pump away.
