Re: how to clean a 'toy' i got
Hi there, and welcome to the boards. 
You can mostly just clean it with soap and hot water. Given how inexpensive it was (I know $17 still isn't nothing, but quality sex toys tend to be more expensive), I am going to assume it probably is porous, and think you should too. That given, if you can cover it with a condom when you use it, great, but if not, I would suggest boiling it at least every couple of uses.

Happy to help.
I just took a look at your IP address, and it looks like you're in a state with some free condom programs. Would it be okay with you if I posted links to those resources here? If not for the toy, you may want or need access to condoms at some point if you decide to have sex with any partners. <3
