dw82 Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 After 4 pages of this I'm still surprised at how many people seem to be going through the 'embarassing' ritual of paying for contraception in supermarkets/other shops when the family planning clinic gives them to you for free.

*binty* Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 I use them even though I'm on the pill and I've been with haddock for nearly two years. (woah ) but that's not 'cos I think he's got anything icky that I might catch, it's purely because I like to make DOUBLE sure I am not going to end up "with child", so basically I'm motivated by utter fear! You make me laugh dear, however, i guess you just like to be extra careful Nothing wrong with that! I wouldn't be embarrassed about buying them, although, we don't use them! I wind Deej up saying he'll have to start wearing them after Madams made her appearance but i know i'll go back on the pill instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent Orange Posted November 19, 2009 Author Share Posted November 19, 2009 I meant you didnt have to use that checkout deffo a mans job buying them though, I wouldnt like to do it Erm, true.... but once they were in the basket/trolley I just kinda forgot until they made an appearance on the conveyor belt Seriously though, when I initially started buying them I used to get a little shy about it, but it's not a problem now. I suppose if people are that shy/embarrassed about it then there's always internet shopping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shanes teeth Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 I don't understand why on earth anyone would be embarassed? People must think the world revolves around them, I think they need to realise the checkout people don't give a crap about what you're buying, and probably won't even notice when they scan a packet of condoms! Don't be so sure.I got some very strange looks in Tesco when purchasing a cucumber,four cartons of fresh custard,some KY jelly and an oven ready chicken.

Agent Orange Posted January 8, 2010 Author Share Posted January 8, 2010 Don't be so sure.I got some very strange looks in Tesco when purchasing a cucumber,four cartons of fresh custard,some KY jelly and an oven ready chicken.

slimsid2000 Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 not half as embarrasing as buying a tube of Anusol! Get them both at once and halve the embarrasment (or get some funny looks in Saisburys) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent Orange Posted January 13, 2012 Author Share Posted January 13, 2012 Remember the good old days of "something for the weekend sir" as my dad got his hair cut Hopefully that's all he got cut. I remember the days when my barber used to stock them. I was a little young to understand what they were at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helhol Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 It's only embarrassing if you have to nip into the gents to buy them and then hang around for 5 minutes deciding which flavour. i doesnt matter what the flavour is, it still tastes of rubber i know this from my younger days when i would do anything to please my fella i am older and wiser now, 7 kids later, and yes all planned and i offered to get some for my teenager kids and they said no thanks we will get our own !!!!!!!!!!, and they did, so no embarrasment there with them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Resident Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 My ex used to go wait in the car if it was time to re-stock when we went shopping. She was 24 :-\ Personally I don't see the issue I do remember one time, we'd just got home from shopping and the condoms were the only thing that needed to go upstairs so I just put them on the stairs to take up when I needed to go up. She went mental at me, saying I knew her mother was coming round in a bit and not to leave them there where she could see them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
