A while back, I snapped some photos of a fellow Oakland Sex Educator Babe with one of our mutual favorite toys – the gorgeous Candy Colored Glass Dildo. We had a really fun time and the pics came out great, so today we though we’d share one of the shots as well as the Top 10 reasons why we love these particular toys so much!

Candy Colored Glass Dildo

1. They are a work of art!
2. The rock-hard material is perfect for applying direct pressure to the G-Spot or prostate.
3. (more…)

At a recent meeting, New York Babeland staff discussed what toy they would bring with them if they were stranded on a desert island and why. Here is what our funny (and very surival-oriented) staff came up with!

• Babelicious flavored lube to eat
• We Vibe as a boomerang weapon
• DVDs to reflect light to start fires
• Earth Angel for pleasure (a necessity, of course!)
• Sparkly pasties for the inevitable desert island fashion shows
• Afterglow wipes for hygiene
• Spin the Bottle game for sending sea messages
• Spreader Bar to make a tent
• Liberator to use as a pillow
• Bondage tape for clothing
• The Ethical Slut for, well, ethically slutting
• Lollipop Crop as a flyswatter
• Spare Parts harness to swim in (it’s waterproof!)

What sex toy would you take to a desert island and why? You can think of a totally different toy or a different use for one of the ones listed – put it in the comments!

Wallet feeling a little smaller during these economic times? Had your eye on a special toy for months but you just weren’t sure? In a new relationship? In a relationship that needs some spicing up? Want to take your solo play in a whole new direction? Now is your chance. All of our Babeland locations are having a sale this weekend (Friday the 17th through Sunday July 19th)! We’re giving you 20% off almost everything in the store. To make things even better, you can get further discounts if you bring in canned goods because we’re having a food drive! If you bring in 5 cans, you’ll automatically get 5% more off – bring in more cans and you’ll receive additional coupons to neighboring retailers. I’m sure we all have some random cans of beans or soup sitting in our cupboards that we could easily give away.

In Brooklyn and Seattle, we’re also pleased to be sharing our sales with two block parties – the Bergen Stoop Sale in Brooklyn and the East Pike Street Summer Sale in Seattle. Stop by those locations and you can pop into some other great neighborhood stores as well for additional savings.

So, start looking online now to figure out what you want and tell your friends! More information here.
