I had the toughest time buying them, I couldn't do it. I made my girlfriend go do it untill she refused to do it anymore. We we ran out she said I either go get them or no more sex. I went to the store, but I was not happy about it. I did the same thing Dom did, ran in found what I needed and booked it the hell out of the aisle. Once at the registers, I had the choice between the young, hot, cashier or the middle aged man. That is the first and only time I chose the old man over the hot cashier. He just kinda smiled and I avoided eye contact, I paid for my condoms and left, quickly. Uh, it still gives me the chills.

I don't see what the big deal is. It's not like you're standing in line with a box of condoms and a sheep on a leash.

I grew up in a very religous household where premarital sex was fround upon. So it was kinda embarressing to have to publicly display that I was having sex.

TLover

Ah. Understandable.

CLPowersWife

Yeah, honestly, my wedding ring is the only thing that got me into that gas station at 11:45 at night to buy condoms... if I weren't wearing it, we'd have been condom free for the night.

I CANNOT BELIEVE IM READING THIS SHIT...guys are scared to buy condoms ? I buy my rubbers with pride. The KY I get some looks but I dont give a fuck.

I also feel DIRTY when I buy condoms. I don't know why, but it's like that "oooooh you're having sex before marriage Catholic guilt trip thing"...I'm not Catholic, but still. So, I take 2 shots of Cuervo 1800. Go to the store. Go to the line with the cute cashier or anyone for taht matter. Look them in teh eye and say, "so how do you feel touching them knowing where they are going to be used?" And I hit them up with the grin and wink.






















I go to Wal-Mart b/c they have self check-out lanes.

I work in a pharmacy -- always LOVE to see those guys who are anxious that someone's watching them buying condoms. It's hilarious. I have my head down but always see if a hot chick is gonna buy some ...

Seriously ... what's the problem? Embarrassed someone you might know will 'catch' you? I'd say catching a STD and then picking up a prescription for Valtrex for a herpes outbreak is more embarrassing. Better yet, the 1 gram prescription for Zithromax is another winner (to treat chlamydia).

The condoms at Costco, IMHO -- generally poor selection. Not to say they're not effective, but not what my preference is.

Whoever used the saran wrap and vaseline (people -- use water based, not oil based products) ... wow ... that's so ghetto.

Xenogen

Didnt they do that in Booty Call...That movie was funny shit.

JaxJoker66

My feelings exactly too...but you gotta do what you gotta do

dom

The only time I had a problem was when I went to NC and we decided it was a good idea to go to Target since it was close. Every line was filled with families and every cashier was an old woman.

Now, it no big deal. I just want once to tell the cashier "Hell yeh!!!!" when she says "have a good day."

mc_yanzo

I like to wait until someone else is in the aisle getting some. Then I just stroll right up to them and pick out what I need. It's amazing how nervous some people get. Although, it's pretty damn funny when you start to have a small conversation with him/her.

"How's it going?"
"Pretty good, but much better later."

"So... condoms, huh?"
"Yep."

TLover

Um, no.

samkws

if no choice i would go to drug store and being kinda embarassed

if i got choice i would buy KY and condoms at the supermarket with self check out

jlukja

Just make sure they have the price tag on them. Otherwise they call for a price check over the intercom.

MisterMehoff

buying KY alone is pretty damn funny. Not that I've done that at midnite at the 24-hr CVS. :wink:

I never get embarrassed when I buy condoms. Better safe than sorry. Who cares if some stranger in line sees with a fresh pack condoms. At least they know you're handling your business with some protection.

JaxJoker66

I say the worst though is when it is a gas station where they keep them behind the counter and you have to ask for them. I've had to get them that way a couple of times cause I was aleardy at a gas station and I'm lazy lol. Do they put them there just so they can laugh when you ask for em?

JimmyCarter

Not as bad as a trip to the supermarket I took with my roommate and a female friend in college.

Me: Buying condoms
Female: Buying EPT
My roommate: Pacing around looking stressed out because his gf had been giving him issues.

All three of us stroll up to the same cashier, me with the condoms, her with the pregnancy test and him pacing around mumbling to himself. The cashier was just looking at us like

RMATIC09

I dont really mind......but as horny teenagers condoms get expensive....fast...

Dan Martin

That would have been a sight to see.

Doc.Booty

That's why I always peel the sticker off my magnums

JimmyCarter

Yeah, I use Magnums too

I prefer these, they grip better without cutting off as much circulation.

i do feel embarassed or shy etc whatever buying condoms probably why ive never bought any.. but you guys make a good point on that buying condoms would hint that im at least getting some.. i should try buying some and then going to a hot checker

RMATIC09

if anyone does care that ur buying condoms, there probably a pussy ass bitch. Fuck em! Fuck em with the condoms u just bought!

SilviaGTO

oh fuck you guys and having to buy condoms.

having to buy tampons is the worst. No MATTER who is at the check out line, its like.. Hey.. guess whats going on with me!

in fact.. Joe will go get them for me cause he doesnt give a fuck... he thinks its funny when the women are like, oh youre such a good boyfriend.

Whiskers

Yeah, I feel the same way when I have to buy Preperation H.....

iTimmy

I've been putting off reading this thread and can't believe you guys get nervous buying condoms!

When I first got into condoms, I spent over a 1/2 hour in the isle reading the information of all the condoms, sure people were looking at me weird. But I wanted to know what I was buying, I like to be an educated consumer- now I have no problem and rather enjoy buying condoms, in particular if I have a friend with me because it makes them feel uncomfortable.

I still prefer the Inspiral condoms which are hard to find at any store, at which time there is www.condomania.com while a little more money they're worth it! Besides condomania is awesome, any place that has a sampler pack of condom's is cool in my book.

phipark

When I was using condoms, I would buy the 36 pack with no worries.

only bothered me the first few times... doesn't even phase me anymore

chef chris

I usually just look at the clerk and say, "It's a dirty job, but somebody has to do it."

Usually gets a smile outta them & breaks the embarassment up. Especially if that's all I'm buying and it's a cute, young female clerk.

SSMTL01

went to the local chevron to pick up some rubbers yesterday (doesnt really bother me). I picked up the trojan her-pleasure (the usual) and the clerk looks at me and goes "wrong choice.. many people have requested these.. try them" and points to the trojan "mint tingle" kinda. Sure why not. Anyway, the only thing better about them is they didn't have that nasty latex smell.. just minty fresh. I was just glad that the gas station clerk saved me from purchasing the wrong ones
