I have had a few wire break too, however since I can get by without them I just pulled them out.  The reason for having these bras wasn't for the underwire support it was the fabric content.  I know the high price of having to pay for a bra, the frustration of no longer available, so last time over the coarse of two months I bought ten.

I go to stores that have trained ladies to have the bras properly fitted. 

I wonder if those stores are even allowing fittings for bras at this point...probably not would be my guess..

Glad you were able to fix your existing bras..

oh yeah .... i hadn't even thought of that.  You're probably correct.

I make strawberry trifle with angel food cake, sugar free jello, sugar free pudding, unsweetened strawberries, and cool whip. It’s a WW and diabetic recipe and usually a big hit.

Now there’s a Southern girl!

Ewww...scrappo.

I am so glad I’m small enough to get by without that underwire.   But you are so smart Shelley girl....

I had a bra fitting at a specialty lingerie shop June 30.  On that day the fitter and I assured each other we were comfortable with each other being unmasked.  When I stopped in again July 21 to use my $10 coupon we were all masked because by that time our governor had mandated it for indoor shopping.  I think they were still doing fittings though.  I'm sure it varies from state to state.

I "think" all of the dressing rooms are closed aroun dhere.  At least the couple of stores I've been in they were.  Kind of like our bathrooms are not public any more (P1).  It's an issue of trying to minimize the spaces that have to be cleaned.  But really, I am not going to buy clothes and take them home to try on.  Don't really need anything new, no one can see what I'm wearing "to work" any way.
