You can't get them free?

No. I'm a grown up and I'm straight.
It's only students, the under 18s and gay men who get free condoms as far as I know. And maybe poor people, though the evidence suggests that they definitely don't use them.

Doesn't apply to lesbians
for obvious reasons ;)

I used to get free ones all the time
even while over 18, straight, and working, from either the family planning clinic, the women's welfare centre, or a local AIDS charity.

Admittedly it was a bit get-what-you're-given (no super-thin tingly sensation options), and having to register and hang around a waiting room and so on requires a bit more time and confidence than running into Boots... but still, beats unwanted pregnancy.

I'm confident that I won't get pregnant
- not that I'd actually mind - and while I'm doing the whole monogamy thing it's rather nice to not do condoms, but I'll bear that in mind about free ones if ever my circumstances change.

I wouldn't really object to buying condoms but everyone knows if you buy more than a pack of three at any one time, you won't get laid. FACT!
