When I was 11 or 12 I used to travel with my father who was a salesman. When we stopped at gas stations, I would go to the bathroom. At truck stops there would usually be a condom machine in the men's bathroom. I was always curious about comdoms and wanted to put in a quarter to get one and see what it was like. However, I believed that a loud alarm would go off if anyone under-age bought one.
