    I've spent a fortune in the place. It can be a bit of fun, that's all. And some of their prancing around the boudoir lingerie can be lovely.

    What I don't like though is the enthusiasm on the face of the sales assistants when they start loudly extolling the virtues of the massive plastic dildo you were subtly (you thought) admiring. Honestly, I do not want to picture you vigorously abusing yourself with this thing!?! Go away and let me do my covert willy shopping in peace..

    I do...

    I do...

    The last sales assistant I met in there was telling at length about the virtues of the rampant rabbit. How would you know how great this thing is?!!?! You're a young fella!?

    because lads have never used one on a girl before?

    there is a woman on beeb now i assume the owner, what a junk of a place tbh.

    do wimmins really need bras, dildos, see thru panties, and glow in the dark c0cks etc to feel good about themselves?

    well apparently so as by all means they have a high turnover.

    I see all this as utter garbage and would not be in the slightest bit interested in people frequenting this crap place.

    Maybe they all frequent these places because they have met you, your lovely attitude ...and decided that there is a better ways out there to make themselves happy?

    Maybe he stuck it up his bum and used the ears on his gooch?

    Overpriced and overrated and slightly tacky.

    Better choice online, for a fraction of the price.

    Same price you pay for good underwear places, plus you can try it on.

    Plus I have my woman who gives me a good deal!
    have a look on bravissimos website when are next in need as they are both an online and offline/walk in store,its what the sis gets all of hers from,she has said in the past anne summers dont do big enough sizes and they are more expensive.
    mine are flimsy sports bras and no where seems to sell the specific ones that need anymore,might as well get em chopped off.

    Because like any shop or product there is a set spiel to give to people who might buy it.

    Ann Summers is over priced you get a better range of strap ons and dildos and anal beads langerie gimp suits etc online.
    Yes i also hate over eager sales staff shouting all over the shop about lube and rabbits.

    Yeah I know, wasn't particularly feeling like having attention drawn to what I looking at though.

    Discreetness isn't really an Ann Summers strong point though, more a cartoonish celebration of so called sexuality.

    "OMG WE ALL HAVE SEX, LETS BUY THIS BIG PLASTIC PENIS!!"

    I like Ann Summers shops.
    I have no problem saying that.

    Sure they are expensive at times - as are a lot of shops. They are also reasonable too for items it has to be said.
    They are however good presented shops with good lines in quality clothing for women and their items a lot of the time are made from the best materials.
    Not just stuff that looks and feels like its made in a sweatshop in China and is 100% irritating acrylic.
    Whatever the begrudgers and moaners of this world say about shops, the one thing they cannot say about Summer shops is they they are tacky and/or poorly done.
    They have helped take the topic of sex, a natural function for billions into the open further from behind its once seen seedy side that only existed behind closed doors and covered up windows, like a pervert hiding behind his long mac coat.

    If folk don't like the way Summers do business, they meed to move on, get over it and get a life.
    Sure every business has its dislikes but jeasus, some people like the OP really do have a daft, pointless chip on their shoulder over such what really is a small thing in life - but its all part of life!
    So move on and stress less about such daft misplaced misgivings.

    They have oft helped make sex more fun, not just a chore for the female, sometimes.

    I worked in Ann Summers for a while. It gave me some of the best work anecdotes to tell at dinner parties.

    Seeing what looks like a mother and daughter together looking at dildos and lubes creates an odd feeling.

    I got a horrible streak of depressed feeling reading this.. It was like I saw myself from the 3rd person sitting here in a room reading this absolute waste of space of an opinion.
