Why does Frys Electronics sell porno mags, DVDs, and lingerie. I always knew they had this section since I was a child but it was in the back and hidden but they remodeled the store and placed it smack dab in the middle. Do people actually buy porn and why at an Electronics Store between the video game section and the PC component section?

I worked in that department for a while once. Don't know why they have it. Wait until you have to sell it. That is some awkward shit. Or when someone asks questions about it...

That's embarrassing.

Never went that deep into Frys.

I've always done store pick-up.

I must see this to believe it.

Here's the Frys Electronic store with the porn.

 

 

 

They place like a sign says "you need to be 18 to see this" in the Adult section at my local Fry's. 

 

Same as mine but the lingerie is exposed and at the beginning of the aisle.

I knew Frys was odd, but not to this extent.

Oh god.. that sounds terrible.

 

On a second note, since you worked there, were the dvd and porn mags pc related? 

 

"My big sexy Latin CPU"?

"Three-way GPU orgy"? (.. get it? Three way?)

Nothing to do with PCs...

That's unfortunate. I see a huge potential to tap into an untouched market with that kind of thing...  :P

 

That's odd though. Maybe they are expanding their horizons to become more of an Amazon type "we sell everything" kind of store. To be honest, pornography may not be the best direction to start in..
