Buying Condoms

Wednesday, August 30th, 2006 | Funny Ha-Ha |

Nashville is Talking about buying giggly things at the store.

Let me break this down for you: I worked at Kroger once. After the forst hour of grocery scanning, nothing is newsworthy anymore.

I got over buying condoms a long time ago. I will say that I prefer to buy them either by themselves or with a bunch of other stuff.

Why? OK, true story. One time I went to Walgreen’s to buy condoms. That’s it. Nothing else. But while I was waiting in the checkout line I noticed they had blank videotapes on sale. Buying condoms and blank videotapes at the same time with nothing else - what does that look like?

Another time I stopped by Walgreen’s on the way home to buy the two things we were out of and couldn’t do without. I wonder what the cashier thought about a guy buying rubbers and cat food and cat food.

I had several high school friends who worked at Walmert. This was back in the day before scanners, you had to punch everything in. Anyway, they would always discuss the combinations of things people bought. One I can remember was a douche and a bag of Doritos.

I worked at a grocery store in college. One night, two redneck looking dudes and a real, er, scrungy looking woman who looked an awful lot like she may have recently been a dude came in and bought:

12 pack natural light
Condoms
KY Jelly

there had to be an innocent explanation because if one person came in and bought that, I’d have thought nothing of it.

I think Douche and Doritos is straight out of the Kama Sutra.

I remember something going around the web a while back about buying duct tape, clothesline and Kool Whip at three in the morning…
