What's your experience with customs?
They keep nicking my duty free

Don't forget, ear plugs keep you warm in winter too.

I've had bad experiences with ear plugs. I used those little bright orange squishy ones before but everytime I use them my ears ring for about a day afterwards!

If you roll them (as you need to) it is possible for them to touch the ear drum, this maybe what's setting off the ringing. I've read that the loss of hearing is gradual so you wont notice until its too late.
