Title: Favourite shops for supplies !
Post by: washingline on 09 August 2017, 12:00:17 pm
My favourite shops for my escorting / working girl / massage supplies are; Aldi, Lidl, Asda, Tesco. That is oils, condoms, lube, towels, bedding, shower gels etc. Do you know of any better shops ?    :)  I like a bargain  :)

Savers are brilliant for offers on toiletries x

I get all my condoms from the NHS freedoms shop - great rates and a good range.

I get nearly everything else in Poundland, Wilkos, Savers, Home Bargains, Poundstretcher and Tesco.

I normally use freedoms for condoms but when I have ran low I have been known to panic buy Wilkinsons own brand of condoms.
I tend not to use poundland much as I often find you can get bigger packs from home bargains, poundstretcher or savers for ?1.
For towels its is always ASDA baby wipes and nappy sacks I always go to Aldi

I always buy my condoms in big bulk buys from Freedoms. I have had to buy them at boots once when I went to London and forgot to pack them. No time to go look for cheaper options. The selection was dire and the price was horrendous.

I like Durex flavour lube and I like their vibrating cock rings, so I tend to buy them at Boots or the supermarket. I know that lovehoney sells similar vibrators for much less and I can probably find the lube cheaper, too. I like small bottles that close securely as I don't want a mess in my luggage.

Condoms I either get in bulk from Freedoms or on ebay whoever has 100 per cent positive feedback or minimum 97 per cent positive.

Handy for trying out e.g. 6 of a certain condom before buying bigger quantities.

Lube I also buy online it tends to be so much cheaper.  Same for thrush tablets.

I get my condoms free from the sexual health clinic, no-one else seems to do this on here  ???

I would but the non latex ones they offer which I have to use are horrendous, one time I got them they rubbed me raw (sorry if TMI)

So I'm another for Freedoms for condoms. For wipes I just buy when on offer usually Johnsons. For lube the only one that doesn't irritate me is KY jelly, for clients Tesco's own is surprisingly good.

I use freedoms for condoms, the internet for massage oils and lube.  Superdrug or my local supermarket for mouthwash, babywipes, mens deoderants etc.  Towels and bedding I see what's on offer at my local Dunelm Mill.  As for toys and other play equipment I've used anything from Love Honey to Fetters.

I'm offered free condoms everytime I go to the GUM MissStar, but as it is a tool of my trade I feel I should pay for them, I'd feel guilty as the NHS is under enough stress as it is.  Everyone's different though.

Thanks for lovely replies  :)  A penny saved, is a penny earned, is what my mother used to say, bless her.  I think I need to shop around more  :)

Like Dexi I feel we should buy our own - it's not as if they're not an essential tool of our trade - and leave the freebies for people who need them.

I have only once accepted a small mixed bag of condoms from the clinic, after that I refused and prefer to supply my own. Buying in bulk means they cost pennies and these days with working a lot less they last for a long time.

All other stuff I buy from most of the shops mentioned and just about anywhere I am shopping but I avoid Boots as Superdrug do just as good for quality and are much cheaper. The only water based lube I will buy is SD's own brand in the purple bottle. I decant it into pump bottles though so it's easier to use just reaching with one hand if I am lying on the bed.

Lots of people on here use nicer ones, Skyn, that NHS clinic won't supply.

I got addicted to Ann Summers silicone lube. It's expensive but I love it and honestly men just love it for hand finish. That lube is just amazing and extremely efficient if you see what I mean.
I used to be really lame at hand jobs, thanks to this lube I've really improved:)
I'd love to find a cheaper alternative though, provided it's got the same feel...

Wilko for men's shower gels and deodorants. They always have some of those L'Or?al Men lines at half price so I just stock up.
Marks & Spencer's for room sprays:)))

Bodycare for babywipes, nappy bags, tissues, well basically anywhere I get that stuff at promotion price.
Poundland for plastic cups.
Primark for tealights.

I agree with condom policy. I think I should pay for them. But I do admit to nicking towels from hotels. They are perfect for clients and better quality than Asda or Primark.

The dressing gowns are massive!!!! Slippers are a good idea though, I'll think of it next time.
I love hand soap from [hotel name removed], last year I traded stuff with the maid and she gave me 5 bottles. It smells nice and I like those dark bottles.

Ps: I recently bought perfect work superking bedsheets and lovely cushions online from Very. All stuff was on sales, fairly cheap, nice fabric and perfect pattern/design. Bedsheets are some sort of faux silk so wash and dry easy and no need to iron, just perfect.

I go to the Poundshop for deodorants and mouthwash and the little plastic shot glasses to use with mouthwash.

Asda for candles as I do massage as well.  Costco for water bottles, I get 40 bottles for ?3.  Great value.

Marks and Spencer's for stockings as they IMO are the best stockings and a lot cheaper than Ann Summers.

Amazon for hair extensions and wigs.

eBay for a few fishnet dresses (my uniforms for massage with HE lol).  Then I mix it up with Ann Summers and a few websites I use.  but I do sometimes alter my clothing with crap I glue or sew on to make it different to every other outfit they have seen.

Condoms I always purchase from same place as have bought out of date condoms from Boots now several times.  So I use the  NHS Freedoms-com site.

I know I've posted this before but even leaving aside that people stealing from hotels is part of the reason the prices keep going up, why would anybody want a hotel towel that hundreds or even thousands of people have dried their arses on? I know I'm more squeamish than most people (and I don't even use the towels I keep separate for punters at my flat) but this just baffles me ???

I get most underwear and hosiery in M&S, dresses mostly from Boohoo and condoms and lube from Freedoms. Nearly everything else and especially laundry, cleaning and toiletries stuff as well as bedding comes from Wilko. It's often a fair bit cheaper than the pound shop too :D.

If I need two packs of durex I will buy them from boots as they are always buy one get one half  passente and mates I buy from freedoms or Superdrug if I need a pack to last me till I get some from freedoms m.Toiletries come from the one stop, a supermarket or pound land whichever cheapest really as I like a bargain like washing line .  One thing I will say is I made the mistake of buying a Few shower  gels and the only two that get used are sanex and addidas fresh shower gels and I brought five different types   Not to sure about the men's face wash I brought though. I've never had any of the men's deodorant sprays I brought used  They are currently gathering dust in a bathroom draw lol it might just come in handy one day though .

I don't use those towels for myself of course. Just as I don't wash punters towels with my towels, keep them separate when they are dirty and use my own towels and those tiny hand towels when I'm at the hotel. I didn't say either that I steal hundreds of them (my suitcase weighs more than a dead body anyway) and I do it quite rarely. Im sorry if it offends.
