Wisconsin and Condoms
For some reason the state of Wisconsin has some weird issues with condoms, as evidenced by this article and a first hand experience.
After spending more than $1.8 million for a temporary system to catch stray condoms slipping through a sewage treatment plant, a Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District spokesman says officials are fairly confident a majority of condoms are now being caught before they can reach Lake Michigan.In one stop at Wisconsin, buying condoms can actually be a moneymaking experience.
On our way to Winona the other weekend, we came across a liquor store with a condom dispensing machine. After Mad Dog purchased a "Rough and Rugged" condom for 75 cents (no homo), he found a 1 dollar rebate on the back, which had to be mailed to Georgia.
I guess taking stampage into account, the profits are a bit less. But at least they get used someway or another around here.

We were going to visit a friend for graduation. believe it or not, standing in a bathroom in the middle of nowhere and buying out a dom vending machine just to mail in for rebates wasn't high on our priority list :D
