Buying Intimate Toys?

This isn't really DD, but many intimate toys really help with my submission, so I thought I'd share.  I am putting a note for storage and care below for anyone new to toys or looking for ideas. :)

After talking to some people lately about sex toys, I realized that people new to things outside of vanilla still struggle in the very same way we did when we started looking into our alternative lifestyle.  Where is safe to buy from?  Where is discrete?  Where will ship my products in a plain brown package with no identifiable markers?

(I am not getting paid in any way to share this info. :)  Just sharing a site we have found useful because it can be hard to know what sites to trust.)

Well, if you're in the same boat as the people I've been talking to lately, the exact same boat we found ourselves in a few years ago, I just want to quickly tell you about PinkCherry.ca.  There is a PinkCherry.com as well, and I'd imagine it would be pretty inline with .ca. Right now they're both having sales, so it's a good time to look around. :)  They're also offering a coupon code on the homepage, so put that in when ordering and you'll get that deal as well. :)  "PINK20" to get 20% off on .ca and "GREEN" to get 33% off on .com.  You'll see a coupon place in your shopping cart before you have to process your order so you can see the price adjustment below. :)

I do not believe we have ever ordered an inferior product from PinkCherry.  Every item we have gotten is high quality, and we always read the reviews.  Because of the nature of many of their products, for health safety reasons, there are no returns unless an item is defective.  We have ordered probably 30 items, maybe more, *er* *cough* *yes*, and they have all been high quality.  The only thing I ever wanted and couldn't find at PinkCherry was affordable steel plugs.  Other than that, they've always had everything I wanted, and often in a large variety to choose from.  You can search by keyword, or there is a listing on the side of things like dildos, butt plugs, restraints, lingerie and much more. :)  I've never shopped there for lingerie, so I can't attest to that being good or not.  Though a few toys came with a thong or blind fold that I didn't know about. :P

There is a 110% guarantee that if you find a lower price from an authorized Online Canadian Dealer (guessing states would do the same) within 33 days of ordering, they will refund 110% of the difference.  So if you buy something for $40, and find it for $30, they'll give you $11 dollars back.

Their shipping is VERY discreet.  A normal box with TBMBM or Customer Service listed in small letters on the mailing label.  Nothing will state what is inside, nothing will say PinkCherry, at least this is true for the Canadian site, and says so for the American site on their homepage.  Your Credit Card will also only say TBMBM, so if anyone has access to your info that you don't to see, they won't.  You will however get an email from PinkCherry saying your order has been received, and one from TBMBM once the order is processed to give you the shipping code, both will list the items you bought.  You will also get an email from PayPal if you use them, and it too will list your items.  So just keep that in mind if your email and PayPal email isn't private.

In Canada for sure, maybe states, if you are signed into your account when you order, for every $10 you spend, you get $1 in credit towards future purchases. If you forget to sign in, you can write them and they'll add the points.  If you have $49 in your order, you get free shipping.  We use standard shipping, and have never waited more than five business days for our items to arrive.  I won't guarantee the same will happen to you, but we get their orders in 2-5 business days. 

If you sign up for their news letters, they'll write you a few times a month with coupon codes.  They have sales quite often, and then with coupon codes on top, it makes it very affordable to get the things we want.  Boxing Day usually has a 50% off sale, and we often wait for those. :)  We didn't this year, but we did two orders since then.  But to be honest, hadn't bought from then in a year or two before hand until we finally had our wooden chest to lock things into.  You won't find much for spanking toys, these are more for intimate toys and toys to help with submission, and even things for sensual massage, and kegel muscle training.

When our child was born, family visited a lot, and we worried about them finding out stuff because they stayed in our room, so we had to get rid of half of it I'd say so we could keep it in a small hidden shoe box.  Now we're rebuying because we have room for a locked wooden chest.  (It's HERE, and not full sized, lol)  And because PinkCherry has been so good to us, that is where we're rebuying our stuff.

I am sure there are other great sites out there, but this is the one we know of.  So if you're as curious to look into toys as we were 4-5 years ago, but are very nervous about being discreet, or if they're safe to buy from, we have never had a problem with PinkCherry.  You can pay by Credit Card or PayPal.  And the packages are so plain that my Dad answered the door a few times for the packages and had no idea what was inside.  *WHEW*  LOL

And just a note to storage and care if you buy or have toys. :)  If getting many small toys like kegel balls, clamps, or long thin toys like plugs, dildos, vibrators, etc, we find cutlery trays work great.  We just put a piece of fabric down and press it into the slots to help protect the toys more.  We never found a storage solution online that worked for our needs, and that idea came to us one day, and it works great to keep everything separated.  We bought one with 7 normal slots, and one with several adjustable slots that can go quite big or quite small.  They are HERE for reference, and they just go into our wooden chest on top of each other.  Never let silicone (and some other plastics I believe) touch while being stored.  They can actually break down, we literally had one look like it was melted when we did by mistake. :P  Don't store metal and or glass together so that they don't scratch and leave areas for bacteria to grow.  And always wash your toys afterwards if they've been in contact with any intimate areas, including your mouth. :)  Have fun, PLAY SAFE, go slow when trying new toys, stop if things hurt (unless intended like clamps, etc), have lube on hand just in case (water based if using silicone toys, metal and glass can use any lube), only do things that are consensual to both people, and it can be a good idea to use safe words, especially when starting out. :)  Please feel free to ask me anything if you have questions, and I'll do my best to answer.

Please feel free to leave any comments, but I do ask you to be kind. We go into this with eyes wide open after months of prayer, and a peace in our hearts that this is the right choice before God for our marriage. I am open to questions from those who wonder why we made this choice, but I would ask for no personal attacks. Thank you. :)
