Actually, a trip to the fruit and veg department can be very useful. My eyes have been bigger than my fanny in the past, and it's very frustrating to waste money on a toy you just can't fit in your cunt. So DH and I got a pile of likely-looking veggies (what a fun shopping trip that was!) Courgettes, aubergines, even a butternut squash! (Told you my eyes were bigger than my fanny!) and we did a size test. Now I know exactly what size dildo I want.
And my husband is always asking me to cook ratatouille.
The butternut squash? Well your mind is running along the same lines as mine, I think! You can see why I picked it out. I still blush when I see them. Can't help wondering if I might make it work with a bit more lube and some persistence. But then, I realise it's unlikely. And frankly life's too short. And I already have one scary-big challenge dildo in my toybox that I back down from every time.
Oh and a comment refering to the original question: try a candle. Cheap, cheerful, long enough to keep a grip on and smooth enough to slide in nicely without lube.
But really? Bite the bullet: buy a dildo. They're great. Find out what size you are inside with some courgettes and then get a nice jelly one with a suction cup on the base so you can fuck yourself in the shower. Really. Just do it. It'll perk up your sex life no end, whether you're solo or spoken for.

I say find someone to play with! Or ask a gal pal is she has one that you can sterilize, becareful because most materials cannot be put into a pot of boiling water! Or maybe if you don't want to spend any $$ ask a boy pal to treat you to a gift and you'll return the favor by sending him pictures!
