Keeping Their Eyes on the Polls

Follow me on:

Never ones to stay silent when an opportunity arises to speak their political and marketing minds, sex positive sex toy retailer Babeland is making a final push to get out the vote, by offering an added incentive to voters in New York and Seattle. From a prepared release:

Voting Feels Good
Bring your voter registration card, ballot stub or your word of honor that you cast a ballot on November 4th and we’ll give you either a free Maverick sleeve or a Silver Bullet. This offer is good at any location in Seattle or New York November 4-11.

I think there's a good parallel between the toys their offering and what's asked of you to get them. Voting seems like a small price to pay given the impact your vote can have. Similarly the Maverick sleeve and Silver Bullet have a surprisingly powerful influence for a relatively small financial cost. And if you act today or tomorrow their completely free!

***UPDATE*** Catherine over at The Frisky has a handy list of other great stuff you can get for free for voting. Not that "free stuff" should be the reason you vote, unless by "free stuff" you mean a chance in your lifetime of affordable health care.

Find out if there's a Babeland location near you.
