I just gave up my search for tethers and went to Home Depot for chains and clips. They gave me the weirdest look when I asked them to cut me 4 lengths of chain. It was pretty priceless. Even better since the last time I was in, I bought an O ring...

How about you, do you ever wonder if the staff suspects what you're up to when you shop for Pervertables? If they ask what you're working on, what do you tell them?

I think my husband actually once took half of our spreader bar and our cuffs to the store for size reference. If he did, I can only imagine the looks he got! I would have loved to see, but I'm not sure I would have wanted to be there. LOL

I think if it didn't seem like they suspected anything, I'd probably come up with some innocent story.

If it seemed like they did suspect something, I'd probably go ahead and be hyper friendly and open about like "oh well I really like when my guy ties me up and we were having a hard time finding good restraints so we decided to go ahead and try and make some nice ones ourselves. Can't be too hard, right? *huge confident smile*" and then continue on as though nothing out of the ordinary had happened.

I've actually done that. I'm really terrible at lying and needed something for some restraint system we were making and someone asked me and I just told them. What'cha gonna do? It was a really long time ago and I don't remember the exact circumstances, but I remember the poor young guy that was working there being super freaked out.

That sounds about like something I might do. I've never done it to the Home Depot staff, but my lover and I once gave a talk to one of our friends about pervertables in Walmart.

I just tell them if they ask I am not embarrassed and find the looks some people give funny actually.

I had a guy at Home Depot who came up to us and was entirely too pushy about trying to help. When he wouldn't let our vague answers go, I sighed and told him exactly what I wanted and why.

I asked a young man at home depot which of the ropes he would prefer to be tied up with. He kind of stared for a minute, then answered me honestly and gave me a small demonstration.

If I had been single at the time....

I once had this guy in his 20s keep questioning me on why i wanted a variety pack of O rings in rubber before. I eventually told him subtly that it was for some personal items and it was none of his business. i should have reported his unprofessionalism to his supervisor, though, but I haven't seen him working there anymore, so he's probably already gone.

Weird, I buy O-ring variety packs professionally (as in, for my job) all the time and never have had anyone ask me why.

When I went to buy the enormous one to use in my Cowboy strap-on video, still nobody asked why. I guess I'm just good at pulling off the "this is legitimate" face.

I work at home depot and I can honestly say that I dont give a shit what you buy your items for. We actually get lots of guys on holidays or on the weekend asking for funnals and tubing to make beer funnels, lol. And we get plenty of crackheads getting paint and baskets full of cleaning supplies for thier crack. I mean who buys 80 drainos, right? only a crackhead. but whatever maybe they will overdose and die. we can only hope. The one thing that does bother me though is whoever the fucking guy is who comes into homedepot every day and blast up the bathroom enough to make you gag every time you even walk by it. I mean what the fuck you cant go home and blast up your own bathroom? I mean what the fuck do you eat to smell that bad? fuck at least buy or bring some air freshener and spray it all over the bathroom so it dont reak of your asshole.

The weirdest thing thats happened at the home depot and im not sure if it was a prank call or not was someone called and asked "do you have any saws that are strong enough to cut through human bone?" and I didnt say anything for a min and then was like let me get my manager and then they hung up. It was kinda creepy. happened years ago managment reported it.

Lol. My boyfriend and I were looking for canes at Home Depot in the dowel rack the other day. He was testing them against his thigh...got a few odd looks. It probably didn't help that we bought clips and rope at the same time.

A few months ago I was given an assignment from my owner to find anything I could use as a sex toy. While money was an issue during these times. I just made a list. I did get some ineresting looks. I ended up seeing bamboo for whipping.

The Home Depot employees where I live have seen it all. Same goes for grocery store clerks and TSA agents- your shocking = their mundane

I've rarely been asked, but once at Hobby Lobby an employee asked me what I was doing with those tiny clothespins. I told her they were for a model, which technically was true

I worked at JoAnns fabrics for a little while, we were required to ask what they were making/using their items for, to show a "personalized shopping experience" WTFever. One guy bought a bunch of velvety fabric and I did my job and asked...his reply? "My wife wants the dungeon walls to feel softer." Without skipping a beat, to his surprise, I asked him if he needed some foam for the backside of it and proceeded to show him the different thicknesses we offered. He was shocked I wasn't shocked,.lol.

I worked as a cashier at Walmart for the holiday season one year. I think the greatest perverted purchase I had was one where they bought condoms, lube, whipped cream, and a small holiday reindeer stuffed animal. I managed not to smile or react to it until the woman felt the need to explain that the stuffed animal was a last minute stocking stuffer for her niece.
