[QUOTE="Star*, post: 138326, member: 4964"] I went brazoon holder shopping - I've never had to wear bras with shoulder pads - I think they turned the heat up in the changing rooms to 210- I am POSITIVE Playtex and Bali are in like with saying the bra is a 40 but it's really a 34 - has to be I now hate sexy lingere - but LOVE the new Kit Kat Bunny shaped Easter candy. (blarg) This has really been a chance for me and DF to figure out that CHANGING BEHAVIORS IS VERY HARD and if someone yelled at me everytime I ate a cookie I would hate the world. Not much different than changing a difficult child and his/her behaviors is it? hhhhmmmm? Also - My story of the week - I took some bras back to Walmart -I wanted every day types and not spendy. I was so glad to see a little old lady at the door with her price gun to mark my return bag and not a man to touch the bras. While not able to be embarrassed I still have decorum regarding my undergarments. (mostly) So there we are; me with a bag full of bras (larger size) and her with no machine - "The other lady has it" she said softly. I turned to see this Amazon woman literally pulling kids off the "little rascal" shopping carts and chastising them. (They were supposed to be there selling candy for a church). Anywho she come over and instead of just looking in the bag like a normal woman and seeing the (say it silent) bras - and giving me a ticket she starts pulling them out of the bag - and at her height hanging from her hand it looked like a string of Christmas lights all somehow chained together in the bag and now trailing down from about 6'6" to the floor....and men are walking by snickering (as my bras are not small) and I'm thinking to myself - laugh hyena - laugh. Ten years ago you would have killed yourself to stand in my shadow of my bras, and now they laugh at them. I tried to recover what dignity I had left by telling the larger of the two woman and I kid you not she was every bit of 6'2"; that I had just said HOW GLAD I was there was a lady working at the door because some of us were still a bit discreet about our underthings. Do you think she shoved the bras back in the bag quickly? No - she twirled around with a fist full of them to help another MAN standing behind her not waiting HIS turn and fumbled to give HIM a ticket while he's staring at my bras, and then me, and then smiling...and I'm thinking - OH GOD just let me go get my return. Did I mention I hate Walmart with a fervent passion? Finally this large, non-discreet woman with a voice like an elephant seal bark looks down at me and says "HONEY THEYZ ONLY BRAS - you shouldn't get so uptight 'bout it - every woman gots em." And then proceeded to mark my stuff and place a tag on each returned item. On the actual tags so that if they try to resell them the tags will be torn (dumb) and finally shoved them all back in the bag and handed me my receipt which I could NOT have snatched out of her hands any quicker or haughtily. As I walked to customer service I try to arrange the bras in the bag so that the sticker is on the top and the rep. only has to scan the stickers - but nooooooooooo she pulls them out and throws them out across the counter and I swear if she did it once she did it three times to get them to lay flat and they were not going to - they are big and they are lined - and now there are a bunch of men standing there watching or oogling depending on if they like big women or not - and there I am.

Never again - and all this could have been avoided if the stupid man at the ALL IN ONE UNISEX changing room (do not like that either) would have allowed me to try them on in the store. So THAT is my inspiration - I'm allergic to people and now I am only going to buy my bras from a place that sells them and allows you to try them on. [/QUOTE]
