@MoonMoon: weird how on the website they specifically say "no need to size up anymore"

@junebugsmama: yeah now they should say "size down! Way down!"
I think I'm going to contact them about an exchange.

Update: they were really nice about letting me exchange the S for XS. The new pair still looks really big, but I guess I'll see how it is when I actually use it!

So I was looking for a coupon code and came across this.
They apparently had a referral program for bloggers but when the bloggers tried to use those codes, the codes didn't work.
Seemed they pissed off a bunch of bloggers
http://putacupinit.com/why-we-no-longer-support-thinx/
Then in this link the company responded that the codes were created by bots and fake emails so they had to disabled the codes. Might be possible but they might be trying to justify ending a program where they were losing too much money.
The first link does mention false advertising. Some advertising does say no pads or tampons, but when you look at the site they said it should be used as backup like a pantyliner.
I don't know, lots of negative press for something that is just used for backup.
I almost pulled the trigger and bought some but I think I'll pass.

I’ve actually been experimenting with Thinx for my last two cycles. I pretty much used them from the mid to late portions of my cycle without any tampons or other backup, and they’ve worked well. I own the hiphugger and sport versions. I have not had a chance to wear them on my heaviest days yet (on both days in the last two cycles I was traveling (actually in transit), and I just didn’t want to test them out then). I’m looking forward to not having to wear pads or tampons for most of my period.

@BKCaribBaby: I'm hoping they will work for me now! But I prefer Dear Kate (though I think they have less absorbency) because they don't look/feel like a bathing suit and have more styles.
