    Pet hate is bra shopping - SO expensive for something so indispensable (and no, I don't do cheap bras - I'm a 32G and it isn't an option!) and also, so much hassle given that it's really essential to try before you buy and it's not necessarily that easy to find the right fit/good shape etc. Need to go and blow £100 or so on some new ones as soon as possible - can't wait :rolleyes:

    Get properly fitted in Bravissimao and ask them to write down the manufacturer and style of the ones you like so that when you come again you won't have to go through the fitting process.

    Pop onto eBay and input the style & size of what you want to buy. I can almost guarantee that you'll save roughly half on the shop price for the exact same item.

    I just bought my daughter a 28H (BNWT) for £11.50 instead of the £24+ they wanted in Bravissimo.
    I let my mind wander and it never came back!

    That's basically exactly what I already do! I love Bravissimo's fitting service and I know you can (often) get the same bras cheaper elsewhere. However unless I literally stick to the same bras every time I buy, I ALWAYS find I have to try on instore first, as you can just never tell what sort of fit each different bra will be or what shape it will give.

    I love Bravissimo and I love eBay - but I still dislike bra shopping!
