  • my heart sank when I read this and thought it meant it was closing!
  • Whew. I, too, thought this was going to be a "closing" post. I love this quote from the article:

    "Even though times are tough, Cavanah said her high-end thrill machines — like the rechargeable Gigi vibrator ($109), with its seven customizable settings — are selling better than one-speed, battery-powered models.

    “People want something a little elegant,” she said. “It’s like a nice pair of shoes. You put them on and you say, ‘This makes me feel good.’ With a fancy vibrator, they say, ‘This is how I feel about my sexuality.’”"
  • It probably has something to do with the recession and cheap thrills.
  • Babeland fail in Park Slope?!? C'mon! All those strollers have to start from somewhere....

    Good for them. That Bergen retail stretch is really taking off in a nice way.
  • Exactly! how do you think all those babies at the bars come to be? Glad to hear Babeland is doing well, still got to get over there one of these days.
  • The good news is that after spending $109 on a vibrator, you won't want or need to leave the house for a while :)
  • LOl! Damn, good point Flexi, maybe I better get over there right away ;)

    I reckon so.
  • I love that store. Went in a few weekends ago on a lark. Was walking by with baby in tow and figured I'd drop in to take a look while the kidlet napped in his carrier. Clerks were super friendly and this mom went home with a fun little purchase that didn't break the bank and makes the economy temporarily more palatable. I'm glad Babeland is doing well.
