Thrift Store Asks People To Stop Donating ‘Used and Unused' Sex Toys
By Ben Hooper
Oct. 27 (UPI) -- A charity-run thrift store in Wales is asking supporters to stop donating their "used and unused" sex toys.
The Barnardo's store in Gorseinon, Swansea, which supports the Barnardo's chil- dren's
charity, issued a statement asking donors to be care- ful of what they bring to the store.
"Could those of you who kindly donate please be
mindful that we are a children's charity and as such we have a range of ages on our wonderful vol- unteer team," the statement reads.
"We therefore ask that you refrain from donating your used and unused marital aids! We would like to remind you that the branch has CCTV so that these items can be traced back to their owners. Thank you."
A representative for the charity store said the
statement came after some recent inappropriate donations.
"We're always hugely apprecia- tive of donations from the commu- nity -- but it's fair to say that these items aren't quite the sorts of toys we're looking for," the spokesper- son told Wales Online.
The representa- tive said the store is particularly in need of donations of clothing and children's toys.
