I found the trick with any of the briefs or camis (I have a massive collection of both) is not to go too small. Choose the next size up or two. This means it keeps things in place without being super restrictive at the end of the day , too hot, or too annoying to pull out of the way when I need to pee which is often!!

Ross, TJMax, Marshall's, Kmart, Target, etc all have cheap options.

I do the same thing. 1-2 size larger, or even more than that. When they are too small, not only they are very uncomfortable, but that is when they start rolling up or down.

Go to macy's and try a bunch on. The thigh length ones cut off my circulation so I use the capri or ankle length ones. There should be some good coupons soon.

You may prefer the camis with briefs.

I like THESE briefs from Wal Mart. The top part is hook and eye and keeps everything in place.

Briefs are no good, for the loose skin bulges out all around them. I prefer something that goes from my bra down to my knees, and yes, you can get them at a reasonable price. Check Target and Walmart for reasonable ones.

Assets at Target are a knock off from Spanx
