My SIL had a bachelorette party like that. It alternated between embarrassing and hilarious. I learned there that dildos and vibrators say "for novelty purposes" because it's illegal to sell them for sexual purposes in Texas! How insane is that?!
Anyway, I ordered a massage oil and a heating pad thing for actual muscle tension relief purposes, but all orders were done in secret. SIL then told MIL I made an order to tease me. I wanted to die! Lol. DH thought it was hilarious.

I have been to two of these, and they were both sneak attacks. One was a bach party for my SIL and one was just a GTG. Both turned out to be pure romance parties when I got there. I'm not sure if this is a technique of theirs or if these two people just made misleading invites just because, lol.
They were both fun, but I didn't buy anything at either.
They are funny, but I am very personally conservative publicly, so it's always a bit tough for me to come out of my shell at them. I usually don't buy anything.
I thought you were the sex positive one around here, lol

I've been to one, it wasn't too bad. But admittedly, I'm not embarrassed discussing sex, kink, or any variation thereof. I think they can help people realize that sex toys aren't that scary, and can help everything seem less intimidating. The one I went to was a while back when I was fresh out of college, and while it started off with a lot of giggling and blushing, the women eventually relaxed a bit and became genuinely interested in all the toys. I can see where it would be easier to buy something at one of these then develop the courage to walk into a sex shop, and I know a few girls who are intimidated by the on-line stores as well. Everything was purchased in secret, they handed everyone a order sheet and you just checked off what you wanted to purchase, so no one knew.
They're not my favorite thing to go to, but if I'm being forced to go to a "buy this shit" party, it might as well be one for sex toys.

Aww, I love you guys. They're really fun. Usually I end up impulse-buying some shit I never end up using, but it's also when I stock up on the essentials, like silver bullets.

an aunt bought me a nice silk robe and really conservative nightie for my bridal shower and my mom has a photo of me taking it out of the bag. my face was as red as my sweater at the time and my aunt even apologized to me afterwards i was so embarrassed. there is no way i could actually speak at a party like this.
i also had to have a friend go with me the first time i went to the sex shop b/c i was so scared. ive loosened up since but man, i still cant do a table full of vibes.
This is why Al Gore invented the internet. Sex toy shopping can now be done on your lunch break for items that show up in a plain brown paper wrapper.

what if you legit get a broken one? will they return it? the sex shops at least open it and give you fresh batteries.
I can't speak for all websites, but Adam and Eve's (one of the largest companies) return policy says:

If an item does not perform because of a manufacturer’s defect, then return it to us. We’ll replace it without charge.

Lol, I only get invited to cleaning product parties. I agree though. Buying vibrators and lube around some possible strangers does not sound fun.
I want to go to a cleaning product party!!!
They are actually pretty cool. It's all natural, environmentally friendly products. It's called Norwex. Their cleaning cloths work amazingly well. I'm actually going to another one at the end of the month. Lol
I've hosted two of these parties, when I was in my early 20's. The first party, the sales rep put a new jar of "clit cream" in my first bathroom with q tips, and told everyone to use a small pea sized amount and see if we liked it. When I went in about an hour later, the jar was literally scraped clean OMG. Then the sales rep took everyone into my office and placed the orders in there to be more discrete. Except she threw all of the carbon copies of the order forms into my garbage can! So of course I read it, and I was shocked at how many of my friends had ordered the 9" hot pink glittery dildo. I'm a prude lol... Oh and my SIL couldn't make the party but said "I do want to order the $300 sex swing, have your sales rep call me".
The second party, one of my acquaintances kept going on and on about how great the "Anal Ease" lube is. It was pretty embarrassing/uncomfortable for me.
I decided I'm not cut out for these parties and haven't been to any since then.

this is the one ive been to. she smeared country crock butter ALL OVER a window and then cleaned that shit up with the rag like TA-DA!!!
Lol, that is exactly what this one did, too! I was amazed, haha. Needless to say I bought it. I am impressed by how well it cleans. My mirrors look great!
With booze, they're less awkward and even can be fun!
Usually, the person running it is very personable and knows how to deal with the awkwardness and turn it into humor.
Yeah so much depends on the rep. The reps I've had have always been a lot of fun and pretty down to earth and they can make a crap ton of money LOL.
the rep for one of the ones I went to was this tiny little strawberry blond redhead. She had her hair cut in a neck-length bob, very prim and girlsih. She was wearing a kelly green skirt with a white cami and a green sweater with flowers on the pockets-- very schoolgirlish. And then she said things like "So this is a cockring."

Ordering has always been totally discrete at these parties which is nice, but honestly, I could give a fuck what kinds of toys my friends/acquaintances are using. If it gets you off, I say go for it. I'm a tightly wound up little bitch if I'm not getting enough time to myself.

My MIL straddled my face while sitting on a stool designed for oral sex at one of these parties. That should tell you everything you need to know about how I feel about these parties.
