    Has anyone ever gotten deliveries from Ann Summers? What's the packaging like?

    I don't want any awkward encounters if one of the parents has to open the door and I physically haven't the time to pop into Ann Summers plus, online is cheaper!

    They have a YouTube video explaining their packaging

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,275 ✭✭✭Your Face


    Its a big pink parcel with feathers attached.
    There's writing on it which reads -
    'Ooer missus I'm a right kinky minx don't you know'


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 81,220 ✭✭✭✭biko


    It's a big brown box that says PORN on it.

    C'mon OP, How big is your package?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,626 ✭✭✭Glenster


    Boring answer, but its plain packaging.

    No Ann Summers name anywhere.

    It's just a plain brown box OP, or it used to be anyway. I had an Ann Summers party a few years ago and all of the orders were delivered to my house afterwards. Everything was just in a brown box. I think any underwear was in one of those sealed opaque bags, same as you'd get if you order clothes from any store online. It shouldn't look 'suspicious' at all.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,930 ✭✭✭Jimoslimos


    You could always ask the delivery company (DP...d) to drop it in by the back door.

    Anyway AS strikes me as being tacky and its stuff has a reputation for being poorly-made.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,434 ✭✭✭Robsweezie


    ''special delivery for GUESSWHOEH THE DIRTY HOOR''

    What if it's too big?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,310 ✭✭✭✭Grandeeod


    Plain packaging/box, but the delivery driver knows where it has come from.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,419 ✭✭✭corner of hells


    A "friend" of mine is a delivery driver for them and any package delivered is completely unidentifiable.

    However his truck , is a forty foot one is emblazoned in with Ann Summers products.He also has a large horn to announce his arrival... the horn is on the truck.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 21,448 ✭✭✭✭Cupcake_Crisis


    It doesn't matter what the packaging is like, if your ma is anything like mine she'll open it either way.

    Exactly how long have you waited to tell that story? You must have known having a mate who delivers for AS would be a usuable anecdote at some point in AH? :P:D

    OT, stuff is overpriced for the cheap quality, esp the underwear which is rubbish quality.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,960 ✭✭✭✭Discodog


    Get a document tube from an Art shop. Fill it with sweets & print off the Anne Summers logo & attach it to the tube & send it registered delivery :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,166 ✭✭✭Are Am Eye


    Maybe give Ann a shout herself and specify how you want the stuff
    delivered.

    Do these answers mean you two have managed to wear out a "toy" from overuse ?

    Reminds me of the time when I used to keep Tarantulas as pets and I used to get them delivered to my job.They basically put a 24 hour heat pack in the box to keep them nice and warm and survive the journey from wherever.
    Anyway the old receptionist knew never to open packages for me as Id told her what was in them.
    So this new receptionist starts and I tell her not to open packages for me. She decides that shes going be smart about it and open all packages that come in regardless who they are addressed to.
    So next delivery arrives with 2 tarantulas in it that are 8 inches long.

    Well I never heard someone scream the way she did. But she didn't open packages addressed to anyone else again!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 547 ✭✭✭gerard2210


    I had a registered package from China for a woman on my route, "9 VIBRATORS " was written in fairly large lettering and of course it was registered. The poor woman was mortified signing for it. Apparently they were for a hen party.

    A couple of years ago my parents were away so I was popping over to their house every couple of days to check up, collect mail etc.

    Whilst there the postie called with a parcel for the retiree next door neighbours. They weren't in, he said, would I mind taking it for them. No problem said I.

    It was plain "discreet" packing but a seasoned perv like myself can spot a Lovehoney label a mile away.

    Dropped it in a while later and gave the old lad next door a knowing smile and nod. Not sure how I kept a straight face.

    Hope I'm still getting filth parcels delivered in my 70s!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 252 ✭✭GuessWhoEh


    So basically I've to grin and bare it if the parentals decide to open the door to the delivery man?

    That's my luck for attempting to treat myself to some undies. Relax, I couldn't bring myself to get anything else


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,394 ✭✭✭Pac1Man


    That's a treat? Would a five pack in Pennies not have done the same job?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,564 ✭✭✭✭whiskeyman


    Discreet packaging they said...

    If you're already embarrassed about the parcel, I suspect that unsheathing yourself in front of your parents will only worsen matters.

    Same guy that drives the truck? And the only AS items I had were not battery related, thanks very much :pac:

    Oh and OP, you should have started this thread before you made the order, if its lingerie you bought, you've been done(its so expensive for what it is and wont get a second *ahem* outing as will fall to pieces :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,074 ✭✭✭kittensmittens


    I have a mate, guy in his 30's(the anecdotes on here just made me remember it)who made an order for some "goodies" for himself and his partner as a surprise during last summer. There were quite a few exotic bits on the order and he was well looking forward to getting it delivered. He made the order and waited.
    Good few weeks passed before he remembered about it. Thinks "Where the hell is the order?"

    Goes online to check the status and freezes.
    The same crowd he ordered them from, he had ordered a set of solar light things the last time he had used the site. He had ordered the lights for his MOTHER and had used her delivery address for the lights. Never checked when ordering his toys and had used his MOTHERS DELIVERY ADDRESS!!!
    Item had been delivered the week before!!!

    Thing was, his mother never said the package came. And he knew they had been signed for. By her.
    So he tells us this ashen faced in the pub that there were 2 scenarios.
    A: His mother opened it and was appalled at its contents and never said a word or
    B : He now knew the reason his dad had a smile on his face the size of a cheshire cat and was complaining about hurting his back all week.

    I ordered stuff from playblue earlier today. I won't be here tomorrow so they'll drop it in next door.
    They promise discreet delivery but last time the label said playblue ffs.
