Sex Toy Giveway During Government Shutdown

Furloughed government workers can get a free vibrator during the shutdown.

A website called Vibrators.com is giving away 200 vibrators per day to furloughed workers during the government shutdown, according to several reports including one from Philly.com.

Each five-inch vibrator is valued at $9.99, according to the website.

Part of the offer posted on the website says:

"Are you a federal employee that has been deemed non-essential? Do you have a little too much time on your hands and nothing to do? Is the recent government shutdown to blame?"

And here's the website's warning if you are tempted to be greedy or dishonest:

"We are canceling orders from greedy people. Order twice or order two different free gifts without making purchase and you will get nothing. Order one even though you are not a furloughed federal employee and we won't really know, but Karma will get you. "
