This may sound like a stupid question but where do you go to get condoms? The only place I've seen them is in the occasional washroom but there usually held in some grubby dispenser and I don't know how old the packages are in

there.

I get mine from boots. At a pinch try your american version of health n' beauty shops, they should have them by the tonne!

Most supermarkets in the uk and I imagine most large retail establishments over in canada would sell them though I can't use them myself due to an "unfortunate" latex allergy

My general store I work at carries them.

Don't ask me why I know that.

Walmart, if the cashier looks at you funny give them a wink.

Really?...I've no idea about the sale of prophylactics in Canada,but in America one can purchase them in any drug store or supermarket.

Most drugstores and grocery stores with a toiletries section will carry them.

To be fair I haven't really done an in-depth search it's sort of why I started this thread.

Yeah, you get them in drugstores. Better than a bathroom dispenser that's for sure.

Why do you need them Cheesecat?

Actually don't answer that.

Pfft.

Condoms are for sissies. How is your body going to know how to fight AIDS if it doesn't know what it looks like?

That said, Rite-Aid sells them. They even sell the jumbo-sized Magnums, which is convenient for me.

Am I the only one wondering why Cheesecat would need condoms?

Besides for water balloons, which is what they are used for.

/sarcasm

It is valentines day tomorrow sooo...

Or he's just curious.

Any pharmacy or drug store, or the that particular section of a supermarket. They really aren't hard to find. You should also be able to get them in a sexual health clinic, in the UK at least you can get as many as you want free from sex health clinics.

corpsesarefun - you can get latex-free condoms.

Yeah? Well the condoms I use are better suited to being turned into animals by a clown at a kids party.


Creepiest pic I could find to go with that statement.

On Topic: Don't they have family planning clinics in the States? Over here you can just rock up to one and they'll give you a big bag of johnnies, standard.

Yes,most Family planning clinics still disribute free condoms.
Nice Clowns there Alby.

They handed out a lot of condoms at my high school back in the day.

Do they not do that anymore?

Not at mine at least. they're to busy trying to convince all the kids that are already fething to not do it.

Not sure..been a while since High School for me..but I believe a lot of "Red States" did away with that sort of thing...if they ever started to begin with.

I like the idea that handing out condoms to teenagers encourages them to feth each other.

I can't remember needing any encouragement, that's for goddamn sure!

Nor I , I don't understand the logic (if it can be called that) behind some peoples train of thought.
Provide some margin of safety and teen pregnancy prevention to our young?..Perish the thought.

Surely Canada has gas stations? I know one within walking distance that has a pack or two - not much variety, but it gets the job done.

Most grocery stores or petrol stations should have them.

Have fun with the water baloons.

Hello,
Well depending on your age it could be quite akward to go into a H.S. and ask for them. Planned Parenthood has a fishbowl with them in it at the counter, no questions asked unless your grabbing enough for a large orgy (or creepy b-day party, but I digress...clowns...). I Canada I beleive they have both Wal-greens, and Rite Aid, and I am sure they have Wal-Mart, all of thease are valid options. Should you not want to display that you are buying such items, Wal-mart is your best bet, as they have self-check out. As for the above latex allergy, http://www.discountcondomking.com/condom-brands.cfm?brandid=32&styleID=41 . I am all for making sure that you have a Safe and fun V-day.

Regards,
Carl

You need to be desperate to get petrol station johnnies; I know you can get flavoured ones but I don't know of anyone who would appreciate diesel-flavour.

... The sad thing is that you don't appreciate how awful that is Monster.

If your really desperate, you could try ebay. I'm sure they have great services in the condom industry !

It comes to no surprise that they hand out condoms freely at most colleges and universities in the North East of England, I'm sure Albatross and well, most British people know why.

The equivilent to our Chemists for you will sell them.

Go to a large food store. Buy your food + your packet of rubber fun. Or, get someone to buy them for you.

Personally I get a good brand. Not some no name from some cheapo shop.

Or go to a sex shop. You could pick up some or maybe some pink .

Does the U.K. still study Alchemy?

Did you guys ever convert lead to gold?

Any general store, really. Here in the U.S, you can find them in Wal-mart, Wal-greens, Wal-anything.
