Durex U is a new controversial campaign by Durex Condoms USA. Durex U (University) is a national US campaign geared towards university students and lets you win a 25’000 Dollar scholarship.

All you have to do to enter is filling out their application form until the 15th of December 2008 (at 11:59pm). It is true that there isn’t much more to this campaign than the university approach. You will not find any particularly helpful information about condom usage and condoms in general. But I’m sure there are enough places out there helping you with that (condomunity?).

Instead you can visit two short classes by Cindee and Chazz. They’ll explain in short illustration how you could end up using one of Durex’ products. Naturally the products can be bought right off their store.

• 5 x Xbox 360 Elite Console (value 450 Dollars each)
• 10 x Best Buy Gift Card (value 100 Dollars each)

To win you’ve got to be a legal resident of the US and at least 18 years old. Be a good student and good luck!

DALLAS – The 7-Eleven company runs a an intensive Robbery-Deterrence Program with one main goal: reduce the amount of money available in any store. This program is very effective in preventing many potential robbers from striking, but not those in need of – condoms.

Last Wednesday afternoon a man in a wheelchair armed with a baseball bat and a knife beat the cash register open but left it untouched. Instead he grabbed 10 boxes of condoms and one energy drink (only ONE energy drink for ten boxes?) before rolling out the door again. The Dallas Police is still looking for the man in the wheelchair at the time of writing.
