You're SO right! There is less of a selection in 2-4-6 than in the bigger sizes, I think. Sometimes it gets frustrating, but that's why I like the thrift stores. They have ALL the size together... I don't have to go from dept to dept to see if they have it. BUT - I'd rather have this problem... than HATING to go shopping for larger sized clothes!

I know Kohls doesn't stock size 4 in most of the lines they carry. I didn't believe when SusieWong and Gina told me I'd be in a 4... I laughed and said "no way"!

Ditto on that! I'm having a heck of a time finding size 2-4-6 at my favourite stores (Marshall's & TJ Maxx.)

Ok, I need help. DH has bought his black suit for the formal dinner we'll be going to on the cruise next month and now I need something. I was thinking if I had to, I could wear the green dress I wore for Son#1's wedding but I think it's supposed to be a long gown...I dunno. Help!

Here's the dress:

No - it doesn't have to be a long formal gown. That green dress looks awesome on you and will work perfectly!!

After my goodwill post last week, I had some luck. Especially last Sunday on 99 cents day when I bought 3 dresses for 99 cents each.

I want to go back this Sunday to see what else I can find, but have found several dresses to take on my vacation. I got some capris as well, but I think for packing sake I would rather stick with sundresses rather than outfits.

The best part is nothing was over a size 14 or large and I got a few mediums and 12's.

I can't wait for how cute I am going to be on vacation! And I think I am getting the hang of thrift store shopping. It takes a little more work though!

Anything my mom would not wear is getting donated on vacation. There is no point bringing it back because by the time its warm here, it won't fit any more!

It think I bought a whole vacation wardrobe for less than 50 bucks!

I LOVE thrift store shopping! Especially when I score great deals!

I love sundresses too and wear them a lot in the summer. They're just so comfy.

Have a great vacation and we want PICTURES!

I am hitting the Salvation Army tonight with a good friend who deals on EBay. If I don't fine pants there, it is time for trip to Kohl's this weekend!

I just moved into a smaller coat size - happily, I had the perfect item in my closet. I love shopping in my own closet and so does my budget!
