I love the MASS communications..
Gee Bev, you can come up with the greatest topics.
I’ve had similar experiences with bras. I was at a flea market a few weeks ago, and they had these pretty bras in packages. There were 7 bras in a pkg for $10. What kind of fool am I? I bought 2 pks!
They really aren’t that bad, if you don’t mind wearing cardboard.

Great topic because for me, find the right bra has always been a problem.
Another thing to consider when buying a bra is the materials and chemicals of which the bras are made.
One major…”oooh la la” company has come under fire for the contents of certain bras. Would you believe, formaldehyde?

Great advice, Beverly! I usually buy bras at a discount store, too, because I hate to spend the big bucks for an undergarment. I do have to say, after seeing this, I may be changing my ways. No bruising yet, thank goodness, but don’t want to risk it. Thanks for the heads up!

This has got to be one of the “life lessons” that boomer women can pass along to the younger generation!!! Not only does bra size matter when it comes to health and comfort, but it matters when it comes to looks as well.
You go, Bev. Keepin in real, as always!

This is one area I don’t skimp on. And every 2-3 years I will get refitted at a department store not far from home to ensure I am still wearing the right size. Somewhere, sometime, long time ago, it was driven home to me the importance of this.
