I know that is not a real word. But recently someone posted about having the girls where they are supposed to be. I have been shoving my Ds in a Victoria Secret bra. Well I was gushing out of it. It did not fir properly. It does make a difference in the way you carry yourself. My waist looks smaller since I am wearing a bra that fits right. 

I just went to TJMAXX and bought a Playtex Secrets Bra. I have to say my girls are up and comfortable. And it is not a bad looking bra. I went online to Hanes they had ten percent off and 2.99 shipping. I bought three bras for under 55 bucks. 

I thought I would share. I know bras can be expensive. These were not.

Thanks for sharing! Now if someone would share some boobage with me my hubby and I would  both be happy. I am an A cup now and look like a 12 year old girl. Oh well,at least I am thin and feel great!

So funny!  I have been trying on bras like crazy to find one that would hold all the excess skin under my arms.  I'm down to a b from a very full c and it's funny, before running over with flub . . . now it's the skin.  Happily I did find some bras that had wider bands under the arms that worked for me.  Those victoria secret bras have little itty bitty straps and skin was overflowing.  I was so excited to be able to buy something from there, but boy it was not flattering at all on me.  Glad you found something too!

I, too, was excited to buy a vs bra only to be disappointed in the selection, price, and fit.  In fairness, I think excess skin has something to do with it not to mention how foreign walking into that kind of store was.  Anyway, I also like the Playtex wire bra.  If you watch JCPenney catalog online, they periodically will have a BOGO deal.  If you buy 5 bras in a 12-month period and belong to their reward program, you can receive a free bra, as well.  I usually end up getting Playtex Style# 5522 (a $38 bra) for under $15.  Beside the style, I think the secret to a good bra is wearing a new one every couple of months and not putting it in the dryer.

Some kind and very helpful person on here recommended the Bali 3488 to me.  I recently purchased it online because it is a small/med/large type and I love it!  I at first thought it was like the Genie bra but it isn't, it has much more support.  It keeps everything where it should be.  I was trying smaller push up bras (since I've lost 2/3 of my weight in my boobs) but I fall out of them.  I realized that push up bras are made for "girls" that don't hang down low.  tee hee

You are so right! Bra's are so expensive. I only have a few. I will totally check out TJ Max. Thanks for the tip. Love Victoria Secret too and so does my hubby. Lol
