Well, there was a war going on in the early 1940s. In fact, American and British planes had just been shot down in Germany and off the Alaskan coast. But this shopkeeper on 42nd St. had another type of war in mind when he put this sign up in his window.

NANO CBD TINCTURE - 1000MG CBD TINCTURE (NANO WATER SOLUBLE)
NANO CBD TINCTURE - 1000MG CBD TINCTURE (NANO WATER SOLUBLE)
Water soluble CBD water tinctures provide you with all the benefits of CBD in a convenient, fast-acting form. It contains an extract of non-GMO hemp grown domestically under strict federal standards, which is encapsulated in a nano CBD capsule with shells that bond with the extract, but dissolve in water, as is the case with all CBDism products. Using such non-oily glycerin, we can create a water-soluble CBD product.
Water-soluble CBD is excellent for making CBD drinks, and it is also much easier for your body to absorb than oil-based products. CBD water tinctures work just as well when taken immediately as holding it for 30 to 60 seconds before swallowing. However, our water soluble CBD oil also works just as well when swallowed right away. Adding CBD to your daily routine is another way we help you fit CBD into your busy lifestyle.

Every sales job I’ve worked has that one item. The white whale. The biggest ticket you can sell. The sale you brag about when you’re chatting with other industry people.
When I sold mattresses it was a split king adjustable base. That’s two twin extra long mattresses next to each other to make a king, but each side can move independently. They’re insanely expensive and honestly kind’ve impractical but it was the biggest ticket thing to sell.
When I sold sex toys though our white whale was the 20lb ass. It was a female pelvis, a cut out from the waist to the tops of the thighs. It was hyper realistic material and cost about $500. I definitely had bigger tickets but not in one item typically.
In my time at the sex shop, I sold three. Each time was completely different in terms of how the guy acted about buying it. The first man was a little embarrassed and shy about it. I was professional and supportive as I rang it up. Once I handed him the receipt he looked at the box. Then he looked at me.
If you’ve ever wondered how big a box has to be to fit a 20lb ass let me just tell you: it’s pretty damn big. It’s an uncomfortably large armful of box and every side has a picture of the sex toy inside on it. It’s not subtle.
“Could I get a bag….?”
There was no bag that existed that could possibly contain all that ass. “Hang on,” I told him.
I got scissors and tape and covered the box in cut up black bags. Looking relieved he picked up his purchase and left.
The next man to buy one carried it proudly to the counter; self assured and not embarrassed in the least. When I said I didn’t have a bag, but I could wrap it for him he gave a hearty shrug and hefted it into his arms, marching out the door with the butt on full display.
The last man to get one was just kind’ve an odd guy. Not creepy, but eccentric. We got along great, and as I rang him up I said, “Well one guy wanted his taped over, and one guy carried it out. What would you prefer?”
“There’s no bags?”
“No store bags. I think our jumbo trash bags in the back might fit it….?” It seemed rude to suggest putting a $500 item into a trash bag, but he wasn’t bothered.
He considered this then said, “Bring me the trash bag.”
When I delivered it to him he still managed to surprise me. Instead of shoving the huge box into it he opened the box. He took out his new $500 sex toy, and all the little things it came with, tipping them unceremoniously into the trash bag.
“There! Now I don’t have to deal with the box later!”
I was slightly stunned but agreed that I could easily deal with the trash. Then in a move I still think about with delight he flung the trash bag over his shoulder like a Santa with a sack full of ass and sauntered out the door.
If this or my other escapades made you laugh you could pop a tip into my Ko-fi! For more like this check my tag "ffs foibles".
