About six years ago or so, but yup...sort of a right of passage isn't it?
My mom brought me to the little one in our old hometown on my 18th birthday actually. xD

I've been to a couple and neither of them seemed very nice to me! I love Eden! Nothing compares!

I've been to a couple nice ones, a couple shady ones and a warehouse one that wasn't too shady.

But Eden's much better.

for me its an aphrodisiac to go with my boyfriend, when we get home we always try out our new toys right away

I have, yes. The one here in town is just weird feeling. dusty and dim and all that.. I'm not a fan of that place.

We went to one when we were on our honeymoon and it was actually pretty cool inside. A little cluttered, but the guy and my husband were talking and he told him we just got married and he gave us a discount LOL.

With that being said, I prefer the privacy of Eden and the other folks on here where I can talk to and get advice on toys and not feel like some creeper behind the glass is gonna get off lol (like at the store by my house)

Plenty, they're always fun because you get to see stuff in person, often the sizes of things surprise me!

I'm with you, but it is nice to see before you buy and share your thoughts in the store with your partner; You learn alot in those moments.

Yes, surprisingly we don't have much at all in our small town but we do have one here and it is right by the house. Most of the stuff is really outdated though and I don't care for it.

There's one I go to from time to time. The people working there are nice and the prices and selections were decent. I have friends who go there all the time.

Twice. I felt uncomfortable both times. I'm a self-conscious person anyway, and I felt like people were "staring" at me. I'd rather stick to Eden and browse sex toys in the privacy of my own home.

I've been many times. I was spoiled and lived near many really nice stores when I lived with my parents. Now that I live on the other side of the state, all that's near me is a seedy one downtown. I've been once and it was gross and the owner is a creep.

Yup! A large number of towns in Pennsylvania have sex shops, if not in the town proper than on the outskirts. I've seen some that look pretty seedy, while others don't seem so bad. Downtown Philly alone has three that I know of, one of which sells a lot of high-end toys. I love that place.

And of course there's always Spencer's, if you're feeling cheap.
