I was here, as Belinda F suspected, to buy things for a bachelorette party. And quite possibly a prop for a presentation I had to give on breastfeeding. The store didn’t have a minimum age, which I breathed a sigh of relief about. I didn’t have my ID on me and didn’t want the embarrassment of being hassled. These feelings passed quickly, of course, as there were many a high schooler inside. I don’t mean a large group here on a larf, but separate DROVES. Actual GROUPS. Milling around. Gawking at anal beads and… oh, I don’t know what else. This place automatically lost some cred with me for that. It was a clean store, after all, safe and as homogenized as any Wal-Mart. It wasn’t scary at all. I think Spencer’s might have only been one ladder rung below this place. The employees were young, outgoing, and seemed to know what they were doing. The cashier noted my purchase and suggested a different brand that happened to be cheaper. I thought it was awesome of her, anyways. [I almost, ALMOST bought the pacifiers shaped like breasts for my presentation.]

The initial shock when I walked into this place was their lack of quality movie selection. I feel like Condom Sense is more of a novelty-type store. It’s somewhere you go for a friend’s bachelorette party, not where you go if you’re looking for serious adult things. The staff at this location is really cool and laid back, but not incredibly knowledgeable. Some of them are completely clueless, and can’t point you to anything you’re looking for, but on a good day you can find someone with good knowledge. Product wise — it’s mediocre. I’ve had a few things that have been okay, and some that haven’t. For the price, I think the quality should be a little better. But since it’s a «bachelorette» type store, it does have gag gifts galore. Overall it’s a decent store to get your basics. It’s a good introduction for people who have never been to adult stores before. They do have a few decent things, but nothing really sophisticated that a connoisseur would be seeking. The DO have the silicone ID lube now, so that’s a start…
