    Expensive custom earplugs are a scam. Cheap foam earplugs work better but people need to be trained how to use them.

      I disagree. I do not enjoy wearing cheap earplugs. After years of aching ears, trying every size and method, custom fitted were a pleasure to wear. Mine were paid for through an employment program.

      That said, there are much cheaper shaped earplugs for specific decible ranges you can get for about $15-30 in Canada, made for concerts or anyone with noise sensitivity.
