Sara F and Steve aka dude Sara met on the internet and ended up fucking for three days straight, walk into Good Vibrations on a Saturday afternoon a few months back. Now, this trip could have been avoided if I had prepared ahead of time and bought my stuff on Blowfish.Com, my preferred sex toy retailer. Whatever. I'm bad at planning ahead. We visit Good Vibes for one reason only: a harness. That's right, a harness, or strap on or pegging device. Whatever the fuck ya wanna call it. So we walk in and zero in on the harnesses, after saying hello to my friend who works there. So many harnesses and so expensive! Sales lady (not my friend) comes by to help. Sales lady: Need some help Me: Yes, I saw this strap on on your website that was $30. I was interested in taking a look at it. Sales lady: Let me take a look and see which one you were referring to. And just an aside, they aren't called strap ons, they are called harnesses. Hold up. Who died and made you Knowledgeable Goddess Of All Things Sex? Seriously. Just because you work at Good VIbrations does not mean you know everything about sex toys and sexuality. Whatever. Alright, back to the story. So, the sales lady finds the one I found on their website and gives it to me to try on. Score! I scamper to the bathroom to try it on over my underwear. It was just me, a strap on, and a wide smile in that bathroom. I rush out, run to Steve, give him a huge smile and a nod and off we go! When the sales lady was ringing up my *harness*, my friend who works there kindly told the girl to give me the friends discount. Bless you, K.! I'm sure K. could see the delight on my face of a 9 year fantasy *finally* coming to fruition. I waited a long damn time. All those years of getting the Good Vibrations catalogue in the mail and salivating over the Bend Over Boyfriend videos and the harnesses. All those years of suggesting it to every guy I was ever romantically involved with in any way, only to be turned down every time. I was excited. We skip merrily home and I'll spare you the details but let's just say, I have a new found respect for men. In case you were wondering why I don't like to purchase toys at Good Vibrations, it's because they are no longer women owned and operated. They sold their company last year to a mega sex toy company that sells sleazy, gross toys. Good Vibrations started as the antithesis to companies like GVA TWN (who they bought out to) making sleazy toys and now they are in partnership with them. Yuck. http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2007/09/28/BUA3SFNI7.DTL read more

They must not make vibrators that take D batteries anymore. I have scoured the country side looking for my long lost version of "Big Red" and the closest I can get is a measly little "Pretty in Pink" that takes C's. The selection of vibrators is extensive but leaning more towards the fake silicone skin types that I really don't like. Plus they smell like gross plastic. Kind of takes you out of the moment. Apparently there is a new type of personal vibrators that have like the controls of an older version of the IPod. There was this little one that was shaped like a tongue. After we had left I thought of that little thing again and may be very interested that concept. I mentioned it to my husband so maybe Ill be getting something new for Christmas? It was also red too! This is a very nice store that is clean and open and feels very welcoming. I did find some hypoallergenic Astroglide. My local shop doesn't carry Astroglide at all. To bad this store is far away from where I live. I would like to make this a regular stop for me. read more

Nothing beats heading to Good Vibrations with your girls, listening to Lil Kim http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x1vc7n_lil-kim-the-jump-off_music and talking about the joy of fuck buddies. It was like our very own Bay Area version of "Sex In The City" and it was awesome! We were educated on the vibrating cock ring that stimulates the clitoris or the anus, depending on the position. We also learned how to do a "[ ]", which is a lot like a like a '69' but, for really limber folks. It's literally making a solid, squared off 'O' with your bodies; pussy & cock fully engulfed in orally stimulating goodness. It looked fun and it made me want to take up gymnastics. We tasted body gels and flavored lube...we read erotica... we giggled..we eavesdropped on hardcore lesbian shoppers that obviously knew how to use a strap on and wear out harnesses. (wow) I perused the DVDs and was happily surprised to learn you can rent porn here! I love porn. There were a few items that I just didn't quite understand, nor did I feel like being educated about the logic and reason behind a big plastic fist on a stick or a flaccid brown penis that looked like a steaming pile of poop. That just was NOT sexy. I hope every single man out there has one of those Ecsta-Sleeve thingies (http://www.goodvibes.com/display_product.jhtml?id=16CB50&lid=listing). I mean cmon, why wouldn't you want to use something this sumptuously enticing? Fill that baby up with some lube and pump yourself into an oblivion of cyberskin ecstasy. I'll be back here every payday and prepare a new sex-kit for 2009. It's been a while since I pampered myself in sexy things since, for the past 5 years, I was wasting away in a very vanilla relationship. Between the 2 crazy, horny bitches I was with and all the images, products and stories of sex going on here.. I think I caught a glimpse of the mojo I thought was in permanent hibernation and I cannot wait to unleash the beast on my next sexual dynamo. I'm back god damnit, and I'm bringing toys with me! read more

I bought a GV gift card for a close friend for her bridal shower (because, let's face it--if you can't use a GV gift card, you are seriously looking at a lifetime of boredom). When it came time to open gifts and mine was on deck, her really, really old (but in the cutest way possible), soon-to-be granny-in-law leaned into me and whispered, "Good Vibrations? Is that a music store, honey?" Yes, Grandma... sweet, sweet music.... Okay, useful bits: Good Vibrations also has an amazing, sex-positive website where you can actually ask (with relative anonymity) all your embarrassing, secret sex questions without shame or worry. The store itself is clean, well-lit, and the sales folk are helpful and friendly. AND they offer a student discount, with student ID (Say what??? As if sex weren't cheap and easy enough in college??). read more

One day when mother was feeling rather frisky, we ventured into this local sex shop, "to see the latest in sinners technology," as mother put it. The first thing I noticed was the bright lighting, nothing like the dungeonous room mother keeps me in. I was amazed by the large selection of condoms, lotions and dildos. Sometimes I'm jealous of all the toys mother purchases. She says they are girl toys and I'm a boy and thus I can't play, but I rather like toys and want some of my own, but I digress... Mother ended up buying an extra large dildo with realistic liquid reservoir for her bridge friend's birthday but that was 6 months ago and I found it under mothers bed and it was open. I told mother why she didn't give it to her friend, her birthday had passed, but mother just mumbled something about satan and minding my own business. Sometimes I think mother is a scoundrel and a liar. The only downside was that they didn't have any extra small condoms so I settled for kimono extra large. I hope it'll work. Mother says I can pretend to be a big boy for once. They make me feel like a big boy. I will be back for my own extra large dildo with realistic reservoir but don't tell mother I'm coming back. I have a feeling she'll confiscate it. read more

This place would get five stars, but they just stopped selling my favorite lube, which is WET Naturals. I love WET naturals because it is silicone based and my OBGyn told me that silicone was much better for my vag than glycerin or water based lubes. I do like their nice selection of vibrators, pretty much all of which you can play with, not in THAT way but you can see how well they might work were you to buy them and take them home. There is also a nice selection of books, and it's fun to gawk at the giant dildos and also to squeeze them. This is a great place to buy gifts for your naughtier friends or your lover who you would like to be naughtier with. They have gifts sets, games, creatively shaped foodstuffs, and other intriguing gift items. read more

Truly wonderful. I never feel sketched out when I go inside the clean, tasteful, well stocked store. The staff is very cool and respectful and never make you feel uncomfortable. Plus, when I was having a girls only party, they gave me a bunch of smaller bags to make into gift baggies. So nice! I bought the penis lollipops in bulk, condoms and lube for all the guests. The best part is the condom card that you build up credit towards free condoms. I really think this is a great thing the store is doing to build a loyal safe and responsible customer base. Woo hoo! read more

How could I not give an entire store dedicated to sexual pleasure anything less than 5 stars! Toys: 1) ready when you are 2) don't stop until your done 3) don't snore, fart or steal the covers 4) can be replaced, drama-free This store is clean, organized, chock full of books, videos, lube and TOYS! The selection is amazing. There is something for those just getting started with their collection, and always something new for the person who has everything (or thinks they do). The staff is attentive and knowledgeable about everything they sell because everything has been tested by the staff, so they answer your questions based on true experience. What may seem to some to be a bit on the pricey side, is really just good quality. No more pleasure parties (garbage), cheesy websites, novelty shops or fresh produce to pick up where your boyfriend leaves off ladies, GV to the rescue! read more

So a gay, a half gay, and a straight walk into a sex shop... My girlfriends Jenn W. and Kellie T. finally brought me in here. Best mudafugen $50 I've ever spent in my life. Seriously. The gals of Good Vibrations gave us space and were not overbearing or pushy to sell us anything at all, which helped me feel comfortable as it was my first time going to a pleasure store. I spent plenty of time looking around, but I couldn't make a decision for my first purchase. One of the ladies graciously spent time talking to me and enabled my indecisive behind to finally make a decision. I am quite pleased with my purchase and thoroughly recommend that all women get a toy, it's the best purchase you'll ever make! read more

They say, it's not the size of the boat but the motion in the ocean. We say ... and don't forget the lube in the tube! read more

Good vibrations is totally the opposite of what you'd expect a store that carries porn, vibrators, dildos, BDSM gear and etc to be. There are no sketchy characters, the place is clean and the staff is very friendly. The store is also catered towards empowering woman sexually as well. In fact, I'd say the store is catered to women in 90% of it's area over men. They also sell condoms individually and have lubricant samples that you can try out if you're looking for a new lube. Again, I can't stress enough about how clean the store is. It's got such a clean simple theme everywhere that it seems like a sexual toy store that apple would open up. Definitely give this place a try if you're looking to pick up a new toy and want good clean comfortable service. read more

Before you get all judgy with me, let me preface by saying, "you know what...it's 2010, relax." So, I'm probably the one person in my group of friends, more like, in the world, who hasn't visited an adult store, until today. I know, shocking. I was with a galpal and we heard about the "butterfly" and wanted to check out what the hype was all about. I mean, what else do you do in Berkeley, right? :) Who hasn't heard about GV and their assortment of goodies, but I seriously had no idea what to expect upon entering. Were there going to be half-dressed leather-wearing babes with equally provocative men looming around? Was it going to be completely and outrageously icky? I was preparing myself for the worse. I thought, oh geez, here I go. Oh Lord, baby jesus. Well to my complete dismay and surprise, the store was that...a store. Boring! It literally had sections of different paraphernalia. You name it, it was there (use your imagination). It was clean and inviting and not at all gross or with creepy people strolling around. I looked around and saw women in their fifties, chatting with their friends, turning on vibrators and asking the sales lady what she recommended. Good to see the older generation keeping themselves young. Apparently, on Tuesdays, there's a student discount. So, if you need to get yourself a lil' something-something, say you're a student, and enjoy. After grabbing a few things for friends' special occasions, we left. All I can say is that I had one heck of an enlightening day. Thanks G. :) read more

this place is very clean, organized, and the workers are all friendly and knowledgeable. Good variety and comfortable setting. Check this place out, my husband and i visit this store each time we venture on that side of the bay read more

To all my childhood friends who follow me on Yelp: I apologize in advance for scarring your eyes and brains. But yes, I do have sex. And yes, I have gone to sex shops to see what they have to ensure that I have awesome sex (not that sex in and of itself isn't awesome). The very first difference you notice between Good Vibrations and other sex shops is the lighting. The second is its atmosphere. Where other sex shops are either lit by dingy overhead lights or over-bright fluorescent lights and have an entirely sleazy feel to it (I'm looking at you, Not Too Naughty), Good Vibes is pleasantly lit and the atmosphere is totally relaxed. Their amazing customer service is enough incentive for return visits. The staff who work here are pleasant people who don't breathe down your neck as you peruse the store -- but are totally knowledgeable if you have any questions that you want answered. The store itself is filled to the brim with dildos, condoms, lube and more. If the topic ever manages to get brought up, then I direct my friends to this place because they are clean, approachable, friendly and inviting. It's such a turnaround from how you would feel in other, sleazier sex shops. I've dropped a good amount of money here, and this $10 for $20 deal on Yelp is what caused me to make my latest visit. Still pleasant, still lovely and still as awesome as I remember it. The woman behind the counter was funny and friendly, plus she slipped me an extra stamp on my frequent buyers' card. I love this place and I will never be ashamed to admit that I shop here. read more

While I still think that GV is the best thing around.....I'm a little peeved at them! I brought in a friend, a GV virgin, and we were both in a serious shopping mood. We wanted to upgrade from our current toy of choice (separate toys, dirty birdies!) She wanted something she could use whilst getting down with her hubby. I just wanted to go a little more high tech. Sure, they have the selection. The expertise. The customer service.....well. Could have been better. The knowledge was definitely there. But they sold my friend a rechargeable vibe with a European plug! She was so disappointed when she got home. After she called GV and explained the situation they said "oh, yeah. we've been having that problem". Well, if you are having this problem, then CHECK THE PLUGS BEFORE CUSTOMERS WALK OUT THE DOOR. It wouldn't be such a big deal, except that my friend lives a good hour away and it's not convenient for her to come back. Seems like this could have been avoided if they just did a quick check before purchase. Especially since they know it's been an issue. However, I am very satisfied with my purchase.....VERY satisfied. read more

I'm not afraid to let my Freak Flag Fly High. Out of all their locations, I frequent this one the most. Good Vibrations is one of my Favorite Toy Stores. I.... Deeply.... Love.... This.... Place... read more

Good selection of high-end products in a tasteful setting and a wide variety of choices. So why the one star? On more than just a few occasions I was harrased by store staff, who hovered around me and stared me down as if I was going to steal something. I can't blame retail staff for being attentive to such a problem, being as shoplifting in such an environment can be a real problem, but their behavior was downright rude and made me quite uncomfortable, as they sideswiped me, stared at me from their counters, and even hovered around me to "arrange" things. I even emailed their offices to complain about this behavior, and they returned an email trying to qualify their staffs' behavior, rather than apologize for it, or address it. I'm taking my business elsewhere! read more

LOVE this store! I've never been creeped out here. It's large enough so you feel you have a little privacy in exploring the product line but small enough so that you aren't left to your own devices for too long -- someone always checks in with me to make sure I'm doing alright. The surrounding neighborhood usually has enough street parking so that you don't have to circle for ages and there are also a couple of cute shops and cafes in the area. :) read more

Home of the safest and best hook-up...a toy that will NOT: 1) talk back; 2) want to cuddle; 3) ask you where you were, who you were with, and how you got home; 4) think you want a relationship when you actually don't. God Bless Good Vibrations!!! FYI - The staff is a lot more knowledgeable than the GV on Polk in SF, if that's at all possible. Great service; amazing products...I am thoroughly pleased. I think I've met the one. Very happy!!! Purple toys rock! read more

This branch of Good Vibrations is located in a nondescript area of the long main street that is University Avenue. Oh gosh, I just felt there is a no pun intended just writing the previous sentence. Moving right along . . . back to reviewing the business at hand that is Good Vibrations. Back in the day, I stopped by there looking for ideas and inspirations for presents for friends who were getting married at the time and doing some research for others who were hesitant to come to a place like this. And were going to order online or by phone their selections after checking out the dirty work I did for them. Berkeley's Good Vibrations's windows were covered up in white with their subtle logo. Yep, I knew I was in the right place. I walked in. It was quite clean and organized, I got a boutique vibe surveying the place. There were others who seemed to be doing research on getting hen party/bridal shower gifts too and for other reasons. The associates were very professional in dispersing information about GV's products, and at times clinical in how to use the goods. Some of the products I saw, some of them could pass for works of art, especially some of the glass items I saw. I came away with a lot of TMI to share with my fellow hens. All I know was (at the time) there were going to be some very happy brides and bridegrooms on the wedding night. Heck, for all I know they may have been rehearsing and getting in a lot of practice. The husbands-to-be were going to be very, very happy, I was quite certain of that for sure. I know of a couple of film professors at my university who would have a field day here since their specialty is sex and the body in cinema. (For all I know--and I am just speculating--they may have had their respective field days already in here or at the other branches of Good Vibrations.) One of my reasons for wanting to come to Cal was to take the sex in cinema class (no pun intended) presided over by a well-known academic who specializes in the body and sex genre--unfortunately, she retired before I could. And I gave her grief about it too! The other one--from what I have heard, her worthy male successor--takes it even further presiding over a cinema course in the French language on sex and desire in French cinema. Il s'appellait "Le sexe, le genre, et le désir dans le cinéma Français." Uhm, non merci--ce n'est pas ma tasse de thé. And given all the bad press my university is getting lately, there is no way in heck I would talk with him about sex in film and sex toys. Hell No! http://youtu.be/o41A91X5pns . read more

Ok, good vibes has had a 5 star rating in my book for 15 years. This hustler owned piece of crap is NOT the sex-positive, queer-friendly store it once was. It's just a standard sex shop but with way more high-end expensive vibes. Gone are the surly but helpful queer folks, in are the trashy, cheaply made "sexy" clothes. Boooo. To be totally fair, if your expectation is something better and more expensive than a normal creepy sex shop, you may like it. But I had higher expectations. read more

Good vibes is not just a name, it's a great place to go where you will feel the namesake in the atmosphere. With almost anything you might need to help your physical relationship with your partner flourish, the store definitely has something for you. While it is definitely not located centrally is just off of the freeway on San Pablo. The books here are great the tools, toys and devices are better than most and probably some of the best, (as long as you don't buy the cheap stuff). The assortment of lubricants and prophylactics are really for sampling, with test bottles there just for you to try. I can't honestly recommend any specific products because it's really an individual thing. Which is to say that I don't know what you're looking for, but the staff here is kind professional and polite enough to help you with anything you might be looking for. Even if you don't really know yet. So stop by if you've been searching for something, It's definitely worth the drive. CHAD read more

Why do people stare at me when I shop here wearing my assless Ronald McDonald costume? All compliments this store has received are true and well-deserved. I also like the video rating book. It's handy if you have a certain thing in mind. It gives ratings, customer comments, and can help you avoid things like movies with silicone in them. Ask for the book. Sometimes it hides. I thought the "try-out" room was a myth. It exists? I've never heard anyone trying anything. Ooh-Ah! Smack! Bzzzzt! OW! Shit! Jane, turn this crazy thing off!!!! read more

Originally, I hadn't intended on doing any shopping but a Yelp deal offering a $20 gift certificate for $10 popped up on my smart phone (curse my thrifty nature!) and persuaded me to check this place out. It took me all of two seconds before realizing how this shop got it's namesake. What the shop lacks in sq. footage it more than makes up for in selection and by selection I mean MULTITUDE of female toys. Nonplussed, I walked my way over to the lube section and was delighted to see that they carried my favorite (Gun Oil for those of you looking for GREAT lube). A couple of EXTREMELY friendly lesbians helped me check out and even complimented me on my lube selection. Had I been female, I definitely would have felt like I hit jackpot; however, guys may find themselves pretty hard up (pardon the pun) should they decide to shop here. read more

You know a place is well-run and has a good reputation if it has multiple customers on a Friday evening at 6pm. That it's a sex toy shop is a little strange, but even more impressive, I think. Good Vibrations has a super knowledgable and friendly staff. Got into a great conversation with one girl working there, and felt really comfortable explaining my needs. I would totally recommend Good Vibrations to anyone looking to improve the sexual sector of their lives. read more

You know how most of the time when you go into a sex shop, it's small, dark, closed off and kind of frightening? You know how you usually feel embarrassed by being there and want to crawl under a rock afterward because you're afraid the people in this dingy little hole are judging you? Good Vibes is not that sort of place. It's very open, warm, inviting, and the staff are more knowledgeable about the subject than any I have ever known. There's no such thing as a stupid question and they're alway willing to help you out no matter what. They expertly combat the United States' puritanical foundations and let you know that sexual activity is fun, normal and good for you. Fantastic selection, great staff, warm environment. Overall an amazing store. read more

This is the way all sex toy stores should be. Open, friendly, unintimidating, fun, and CLEAN! (Seriously, what's with all the nasty looking sex shops in the world, as if sex were something to be ashamed of and dirty!) These folks are women-friendly, queer-friendly, couple-friendly, straight-friendly, EVERYBODY-friendly! I can't think of anyone who would be turned off by this place (unless they have issues with sex in general). They have a nice range of products from the tame massage bars (that smell so delicious!!!) to the kinkiest of kink (I'll let your imagination go on that one). They also have a great section of literature including "The Guide to Getting It On", which I think every human being over 18 should own. As far as size, this is probably one of the bigger GVs, I've been to two others so far and it's got a really nice layout. Plus they have a frequent shopper card. For every $100 you spend you get some amount free. I'm no where near the $100 point, but hey with my honeymoon coming up, it might be useful! read more

First "sex shop" that I could walk past, not to mention go into, without feeling dirty! It's a great place for couples looking to spice things up. read more

Good Vibrations - Lingerie Near Me - Berkeley, California

You know that dirty feeling you get when the creepy guy behind the counter at the adult shop is leering at you? Yeah, you never get that here. In fact, you see the chill, hippie-ish clerks laughing with their customers over their latest exploits, or smiling & nodding knowingly as they impart their expert advice to a sex toy newbie. If you're not sure what you want, this is the place for you because they'll help you find it without making your skin crawl (unless you want it to). & if you ARE sure what you want, the this is the place for you because they've got just about everything. Love that it's a co-op, because that makes the employees that much more into their work. & what a great field to be working in. read more

Ya know, walking into a store ready to buy handcuffs and shackles for the weekend as a guy. . isn't always the easiest thing. Plus, this place is right next to my favorite coffee shop, its not like hidden at all. I am greeted warmly and asked if I need help, fortunately I went on the website beforehand and knew what I was looking for. . Toy for her. Check. Lube. Check. Handcuffs/Rope.Check. I proceed to ask questions about the toy, and am amazed at this ladies product knowledge. Well played. At checkout she even gave me some suggestions on products! Yay, this turned from possibly awkward to really enjoyable. I'll be back. PS: My girl loved the suggestion she gave me! read more

Woot. I had tons of fun in this store. MUWAHAHHA. I named my toy G-G LOVE IT! Not as clean and professional looking as Babeland's though. Wish there was one in the South Bay. read more

When people walk out, they have smiles on their faces. Not in that creepy way, you perv. More like in that sex-positive, I'm taking-back-my-orgasm kind of way. I love getting coffee next door and seeing all GV bags proudly sitting next to the patrons. Not enough stuff for straight boys though that aren't stereotypes. read more

Oh, Berkeley: the bulk of your population impassioned only by the well-placed bumpersticker on the back of the Subaru Legacy. Berkeley is such an unsexy city you almost forget it has its own GV and you might find yourself in the San Francisco location more often. But when I do "Remember the San Pablo" I head here for all of my supplies. Clean, well-lit space with well-arranged merchandise and a welcoming but not leering staff who don't skip a beat dispensing advice, whether about best goo for hand jobs or care of anal fissures. The outside is nondescript but as a friend said, "First time I went in...a little nervous...couldn't see the interior from the sidewalk...but walked in and it was like 'ching' " -- a mix of smiling, healthy-attitude people toasting wine glasses except they weren't wine glasses. Women can feel good walking into this place any day or time of the week whether with someone or alone. Feel content to browse as long as you need to and feel especially alright walking out swinging your new bag of goodies. Fantastic. read more

The freak in me wouldn't allow me to give this place a 5 star in hopes I won't become a regular shopper. LOL This place is GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A friend and I was looking for lube and went to Secrets. Bad move!!! Of course we Yelped Good Vibrations and went straight there. This place was super clean, great lighting and didn't make you feel like a perv for going in. It was even crowded. They had soooo many things to look at and try that I thought we were in a mall. Very inexpensive as well!!!! Unfortunately, they were outta the lube we were looking for but we managed to get a few of the little samples that worked out well. My favorite part of the store was the customer service. They cashiers were so helpful and knowledgeable. Felt as though we were talking with friends. I'll surely be back...if not for nothing to play with the gadgets :) read more

Love Good Vibes. Great quality items and feminist ethics. I used both yelp deals and got free libe plus $20 worth of stuff for $10!

Could I really give this place less than 5 stars? 1) I waited way too long to come here (no pun intended). 2) If you are a first time vibe-shopper, I highly recommend going here with a more savvy friend who can be there to hold your hand. (Well, one of them, because you'll be using the other one to test out the vibrators.) (Because that's IMPORTANT) 3) I also highly recommend walking into Cafe Trieste next door with your Good Vibrations logo shopping bags displayed prominently whilst you and friend share cheesecake and coffee. And let the men wonder what's up with two cute girls hanging out with recently purchased sex toys. (None of their business!) I heart you, GV. ;) read more

I have never been in a classier sex store than this one. Since I moved here, I have only known these types of stores to be kind of sleazy end porn shops....but this completely changed my mind. It's literally an adult candy store for fun ways to spice up your sex life with your significant other or yourself. An encouragement of all ends of the spectrum of interesting ways to stimulate your senses, and practice safe sex. The staff is super friendly, and the 10 for 20 deal is the bomb. I felt really comfortable asking questions, where normal I have been shy from asking what the hell some contraptions were going to cost. I will be returning, as there is no doubt I would go anywhere else to buy some new products to try. read more

One day when I was ohhhhhhhh.....16, I was hanging out with my lesbian friend after school. She was all, "Girls INC is taking a bus to Good Vibrations right now, wanna come?" Having absolutely no idea what the hell Good Vibrations was, compounded with an extreme desire to avoid going home, I hopped in the Girls Inc shuttle van stuffed with acne ridden brace face girls, and off I went. How interesting. This lady that worked there gave us a tour, explained the antique vibrators in the case, told us the differences in all the condoms and what all the different dildos and vibrators were. I was all shy and innocent, and scared they were gonna card me cuz I wasn't 18, so I just bought a dirty comic book and took some condoms. This place is now an ordinary everyday part of my existance. It's not an amazing special place; it's something I totally take for granted. There'd be a void in my life were it to disappear. And I don't just go there for sex crap either. They used to sell this eucalyptus bath salt that would put me to sleep in the damn tub. They have this really great heated lube too. I forget what it's called. read more
