So, the other day, I had a bit of an urgent need, if you catch my drift. I was wondering, “does 7-11 sell condoms?” I mean, it’s a convenience store, right? They’ve got everything from Slurpees to those questionable hot dogs that have been spinning around for who knows how long. So, I figured, why not?
First, I tried to casually browse the aisles. You know, the usual – grabbed a soda, checked out some snacks, acting like I wasn’t on a mission. But I couldn’t spot them anywhere. I walked past the chips, the candy, even those weird energy shots that promise to keep you awake for 72 hours straight. Nothing.

Then, I thought maybe they’re kept near the, uh, “personal care” items. You know, with the toothpaste and the travel-size shampoos. Still no luck. It was like they were hiding them or something. Or maybe I just wasn’t looking hard enough, my face was probably as red as a cherry Slurpee by this point.
Finally, I decided to just ask. I mean, what’s the worst that could happen? So I walked up to the counter, trying to look as nonchalant as possible, and mumbled something like, “Hey, do you guys, uh, sell…protection?” The cashier, a young guy probably in his late teens, just pointed towards a small display near the register. And there they were, in all their glory.
- Turns out, 7-11 does indeed sell condoms.
- They’re usually near the counter.
- They had a few different brands, nothing too fancy, but hey, they get the job done.
- I grabbed a 3-pack, which was around $3.75, surprisingly cheaper than the drugstores.
I paid for them along with my soda, trying to avoid eye contact with the cashier. He didn’t bat an eye, though. I guess he’s seen it all, working at a 7-11. I walked out of there feeling a mix of relief and slight embarrassment, but hey, mission accomplished.
So, yeah, that’s my story. If you ever find yourself in a similar situation, remember: 7-11 might just have your back. Just don’t spend too much time looking for them in the snack aisle.
