If you’re anything like us, you probably just woke up to a room full of brand new sex toys (we like to think of Valentine’s Day as sexy Christmas). Of course, once you’ve unwrapped and broken in all your brand new playthings, what do you do with all the ones from last year? Much as we love all our toys, space is limited: and eventually, we have to get rid of some of them.

You could just throw them away, but that’s not particularly earth-friendly. You could take them to a recycling plant — but given the materials that sex toys are made of, you’d probably have to go to a special, out of the way recycling plant… and then there’s the embarrassment factor, too.

Dan Savage has a third idea: send your old toys to Kandiss Crone, the Jackson, MS, TV news reporter who went undercover to “bust” an adult bookstore for selling three dimensional objects (read: sex toys). The full story is here, but here’s the essential info:

I’m certain that Ms. Crone and the whole gang at WLBT in Jackson, Mississippi, sincerely believe that sex toys are a threat to the health, safety, and morals of the general public. As that’s the case, I’m certain Ms. Crone would be only too delighted to receive your boyfriend’s old sex toys in the mail, WTBOB, and used sex toys belonging to other Savage Love readers. Ms. Crone would, no doubt, take great satisfaction in personally disposing of all the dangerous three-dimensional devices she could get her hands on. So, ship those old sex toys to: Kandiss Crone, c/o WLBT 3 News, 715 South Jefferson Street, Jackson, Mississippi, 39201. Don’t have a sex toy to dispose of? E-mail Kandiss at kandiss@wlbt.net and let her know what a great job she’s doing for the community.
