So the guy in line ahead of me is buying condoms...

So i'm at Target tonight to buy some Corn Pops and Coke.  Corn pops for breakfast because they were on sale at 2 for 1.  The coke to go with my Capt'n Morgan 100 proof...  Mmmmmmm

The (teenage) guy in front of me is with his girlfriend and he has a giant bag of left over smartee's halloween candy with a box of trojan "extacy" condoms on top.  He and his gf are talking small talk while they check out and she asks him, hey, can you borrow me $1 for this pack of gum?  I think to myself, goddam right you'll buy her a pack of gum, and he says, sure, i'll borrow you a dollar.  (good man, smart move)

So, i'm standing there and i thought, i cant let them get out of the store without saying something.  So i say to them, "hey! it looks like you guys sure like Smartee's candy!"  and his gf turns away and the boyfriend looks at me and says, umm ya, they are really good and its a good price.   I said, ya, i agree, i really like corn pops......

They rush out of there and the clerk looks at me and smiles and the lady behind me in line has a smile also and we all look at each other and get a chuckle out of it. 

I remember when my spouse and i were dating and we would go to the store and i would sneak a box of love into the cart and when we got to the check out she would see them and turn red in the face.  Those were the days.  Now i'm typing in this website on a Saturday night.

IMHO we oughtta be worrying more about the HS & college kids that don't buy rubbers.  These days it's usually not because they don't need them. 




It's a strange thing. 

Everyone is proud to look sexy, proud to get attention from the opposite sex, proud to have a hottie on their arm . . . but then we're all embarrassed to buy the one product that indicates we're confident of actually closing the deal.

Why is that?

I never cared about buying them when i was in HS. better than knocking my gf at the time up.

HAHAHA!   Thats a great story! I woulda died laughing if I would have been in line.  You used to be able to go to the drug stores and they would put them in a sack with a price on it and then at check out you wouldnt know for sure what was in there. Maybe a presscription or maybe something else.

I never had a problem buying rubbers...      One funny experience was when someone at the counter said that they were surprised I was not flaunting the fact that I was actually purchasing condoms...

 I like to ask the "good looking cashier" if she know where the Extra Large Condoms are, because the others are just too small for me.   :coolgleamA:  Man do they turn red.  :D

You should see the strange looks a cashier will give you when you buy a few boxes of condoms & a large spray can of WD-40 & suggest that they stock them on the same shelf so you don't have to walk clear across the store to get your Saturday night shopping done.

You should throw a roll of duct tape in with that and really make them wonder.  :nana:

A few weeks ago the Mrs and I went to Sea World / San Diego for a little weekend getaway. Anyway, I forgot to pack the "supplies", so while we were driving back to the hotel (and I was feeling fairly optimistic), I decided to stop by the liquor store to grab a 3 pack and some sweets (Hostess cupcakes!) to snack on later. Anyway, I grab the sweets and grab the rubbers. They only had the Trojan "fun pack" - "her pleasure", "shared pleasure" and "twisted pleasure" - and some weird brand that I wasn't about to start trusting. When I get to the cashier, the guy behind the counter - some dude in his late 20's/early 30's- decides to loudly comment on my purchases: "OHHHHH...what's this...the variety pack? Damn...'twisted pleasure'? What is that all about". Luckily the people behind me were two other guys who just kinda smirked. I'd have been mortified if it'd been some old lady or a mom and her kids.

We dont have that here either, just alcohol, pop, and cigarette's at our liqour stores.  You have to go to the quick-e-marts for snacks.

that's weird. I have been to some "liquor stores" that only sell alky, beer, cigs, and soda but those tend to be higher end specialty stores more than anything.  However, most places that call themselves "liquor stores" are a combination of that and kwik-e-marts. The only thing they don't have that a real convenience store like 7-11 has is the "fresh" food - coffee, hot dogs, donuts, etc.

Went to St Louis for work in the mid 90's, co worker and I got off the plane and headed to the hotel.  On the way we figured we had better hit up a liquor store and get some beer.  Drove and drove to find a liquor store.  Stopped at a convince store to ask for directions to a liquor store, opened the door and BAM there was beer stacked to the ceiling...we found the liquor store.
