The ones that are more like the material that those memory foam

I get on well enough with the disposable foam type. There is a bit of
knack to fitting. You do need to roll them down into a narrow
cylinder not just squidge 'em. Once rolled small quickly pop into the
ear canal and hold your finger gently on the end until the plug has
expanded a bit and isn't going to drop out.

Any DIY place should carry them

At a price, note these foamy things should only be single use. You
don't want an outer ear infection, they tend to be like tooth ache.
And you *REALLY* don't want an inner ear infection,

How is an ear plug going to give you an inner ear infection? [and after 20+
trips to the ENT man, I'm a expert on inner ear problems ;-)]
