Prophylactic puzzle
Mon 29th September 2008, 9.53 pm
The gents toilet at my local supermarket contains a condom machine, vending condoms at the usual overinflated price one expects from a bathroom machine.
Now, condom machines serve two purposes. The primary purpose is to satisfy the needs of people who really need a condom in a hurry. But no one who is in a supermarket has this need - they could just walk to the appropriate aisle and pick up a whole box for about the same price as a pair from the machine.
The only other purpose I can think is to serve people who are too shy to go to a pharmacist's counter and ask for a box. But this confuses me. Do there exist men who are so shy that they will not add a box of condoms to their weekly shopping trolley, but yet are able to get themselves into a situation where they will actually need condoms? And if so, what is their secret?

Paperchase in Manchester started their seasonal vending of Christmas cards and decorations yesterday, the 20th of September!
A quick reminder for those confused: Is it Christmas?
