We all know how uncomfortable it is to buy some of the most personal items at the store. Would you spend the time and make the effort to buy online if the prices were comparable to your local store and you could receive your order within a couple of days?

Why is it more embarrassing to buy preparation H or condoms than it is to buy toilet paper? It's a product. It is used by millions of people. It serves a useful purpose. If you were the only person in the world to need it, it wouldn't be sitting on a shelf where anyone could pick it up.
Once upon a time, you had to ask for things of a 'personal nature' - there were female clerks in drug stores so women wouldn't have to ask a male clerk for such things as sanitary napkins. And male clerks so men wouldn't have to ask a female for a condom. And packages were wrapped in plain paper so no one could see what you had purchased. Ungh!
Truly -- if something is advertised on TV, shown in millions of homes, there is public knowledge about this product and there is nothing about it that should embarrass you.

Put yourself in the shoes of a clerk at a drug store. All day long they are selling condoms, prep. H, pregnancy tests, tampons, Depends, etc. It's their job, and they aren't going to care if one more person buys condoms and preparation H.

Well, depend on how reliable the website is. And most of them aren't. If you really need something, try the store with self-checkouts or drive a little further away and get it there. My bf wear his dark sunglass in stores so no one would recognize him.
