Come As You Are Named Best Sex Shop by NOW Magazine

We're tickled pink to be named best sex shop by NOW Magazine for either the 10th or 11th year in a row (it's a bad sign when we can't remember these things, isn't it).  Every year they say something nice about us, this year they liked us and our products:

"Shoppers looking for a sex-positive spot to score their vibrators, dildos and cock rings are turned on by Come as You Are's smart staff and lustful selection."

One of the reasons we first opened our doors in 1997 was because there wasn't a sex shop in Toronto that spoke to us exactly as we were.  None of us minded the cobbling together you had to do (a harness here, a vibrator there, lube from somewhere else) but we felt like Toronto was a big enough city that it could handle another sex shop and one that would do things differently.   Torontonians proved us right and we honestly can think of a better city to be living and working in.  A city where we've never once been picketed, where every conflict has been respectful, and where a democratic worker co-operative can not only survive but thrive. 

Every day we get to open our doors, and open our email, we're thankful for our city and the people in it. And we wanted to say thanks one more time.

So thanks, and if you're interested in checking out the other businesses and individuals getting some NOW lovin' here's the link.
