Am I the only one who doesn't want to spend 100+ on a bathing suit?

The prices never bothered me before. I guess because I'm still not loving my body that it kills me to spend so much money on a suit that I don't love.

Everything that I've seen is a minimum of $100.

Anyone have any good places sites for cheaper bathing suits?

Re: Am I the only one who doesn't want to spend 100+ on a bathing suit?

I was just searching this weekend and it's crazy. I feel the same as you. I never minded paying $100 plus on a bathing suit in the past but that was b/c I looked cute it in, so I could justify it. Now I hate the way I look in all the different styles. It's frustrating. I went to all the main department stores and bathing suit shops too. I think I'm going to go to Target and buy a really cheap one.
Maybe by summer I'll like the choices but right now I didn't see anything worth the $$.

J. Crew! I loooove their bathingsuits and you can get some pretty good sales at the end of the season (which clearly does not help right now).

That's why I buy them end of summer at VS , they always have really good sales, sometime in August -September. I order few and keep what I like/what fits and return the rest.
I bought a really nice one this past August for $25 total on sale from $85 (top and bottom) then in September they had even more sales so got one for $ 12 reg price $95 .
worth checking VS , you never know.

When Marshall's start putting them out you can find some really good bathing suits. It's hit or miss though.

JCPenney! I know the firts thing that comes to mind is farty but some of them aren't. I spent $150 on a suit in Macys and went into JCPenney and got something very close for $40 and turned around and did a return at Macys.

Check out 6pm.com -- they have tons of bathing suits on super sale right now, I just ordered a bathing suit for $10 for the top and $10 for the bottom, originally $40 per piece. Lots of brand names also!

I got two of them in the fall around $68.

I always buy my solid black and brown bikini's at Target. They sell seperates, which I love. They also sell skirted bikin bottoms which I great with the kids.

I think that's ridiculous! I would never spend $100 or more on a bathing suit!

Right there with you. I go to Target right now. I can't see dropping money when I hate my body. Ive bought cute suits in the past at Century 21 in Westbury, I know that is not far from you.
