Try discussing lube varieties in a sex shop with a person old enough to be your grandma. That was embarassing. And helpful. Love my lube.

So then I married her, and now I don't need them...

The worst purchase I made was on my stag. Pads and ###### in a dress and makeup... I have my 'friends' to thank for that...

EDIT: The thread asked for three... hmmm...

Some CDs I've purchased have been quite questionable... Britney, N'Sync, Spice Girls. I did work for a DJ service... but looking back... there's no excuse.

Ahhh that stag was good times...we so need to post the pictures

#1: My Maple Leafs trashcan (yes, at one time I was a Leafs fan - when I was just a kid and didn't know any better) Not so much at the time, but I kept it for many years for sentimental reasons until I yarked in it and couldn't get the smell out.

#2: My friends convinced me to take my Halloween priest costume out a couple weeks after Halloween, then go to a 7-11 at 3 AM and buy some seriously hardcore porn mags. The clerk just looked at me like I'd killed his kitten.

#3: Not me, but one year when I went down to Vegas my friend was instructed by his mother to get her some pantyhose that, apparently, you couldn't get in Canada. First of all, I have no idea why he didn't sneak off to do it, but we were there at the store with him and we were merciless with the poor schmuck, really loudly giving him "advice" on his purchase.

Holy hell, Firefly. Between this and your rumoured PJ fights in the other thread, your PM box is going to be full,

Every time I go to the drugstore for condoms this girl that I said no to a date with is working. It's incredibly awkward.

I bought lulu lemon pants one time, that's probably the most embarrassing thing for me.

Hup!!

Personally, I have no issues with buying condoms. I regularly go up to the counter with nothing but, if that's all I need. Maybe I just never got over that teenage feeling of thinking I'm really cool for getting laid.

I am very seldom embarrassed about a purchase, but my top 3 might be:

-Lingerie: black lacy stuff with fish nets, embarrassing because I had to get it fitted to myself because it was for a rugby thing. I feel cool about other lingerie purchases though, cause they pretty much mean that I rock.

-Porn: thank god I was with my girlfriend at the time. Who thinks of renting porn at a Rogers anyhow?? What was I thinking?

-Countless youthful clothing purchases with my mom. God were those 'start of a new school year' clothes shopping excursions excruciating. I wasn't the one paying, but still horrible.

It takes a big man to admit that. A big man in stretchy girly pants...

Totally been there and done that. The cool thing about sex shops though (as long as you're not in a seedy one) is that everyone in there is totally cool with that sort of stuff since everyone is there for some wacky reason or other.

I used to be a cashier at a grocery store and this one time a mother and her daughter bought like 10 enema kits and 10 ######s for themselves. I was in shock not only because I very rarely rang in such items but a mother and her daughter were purchasing so many of them without acting embarrassed in any way at the check-out.

I guess it wasn't embarassing for me because I had the girlfriend buy them for me! I was embarassed to wear them at first until two of my friends admitted their girlfriends had got them the same thing.

Needless to say, I love my sunday football pants! They are amazingly stretchy and comfortable.

Haha mine was there with me too, except I still felt like a complete idiot.

*They WERE men's lulu pants, just to clarify.

"When you are a man, sometimes you wear stretchy pants. In your room. For fun."

Decades ago, with the yearning of youth to "fit in," I elected to use my modest tax return to outfit myself as a cowboy ahead of the coming hometown rodeo.

Suffice to say, I make a ridiculous looking cowboy.

Pretty funny to think back on it.

OK, here are mine:

1. Purchased a silly blowup doll and lube once as gag gifts for a stag. Wasn't that embarrassed until I saw that I knew the checkout girl in the sex store. That was actually embarrassing for both of us.

2. Like many of you, I have been embarrassed purchaing condoms. But the topper of all time was when I purchased a pack with the girl I'd left the bar with on our way to her place.

Didn't bother me at the time because I was wasted, but these days I cringe when I think about that one.

3. Purchasing my Flames away jersey. Normally not anything to be ashamed of, except I bought it near the end of last season.

She couldn't have been that ugly, could she?
