Lately I have just been wearing an old pair of scrubs cuffed to the knee and an over sized tee, with my regular bra (I know, ick!) but I would really like some actual work out specific pants, shirts, etc. Then it occurred to me. At JCPenney, they sell SJB (Saint John's Bay) Active Wear, and they sell it in plus sizes! The shirts and pants are really light weight while still offering the support and comfort. Plus, they're really cute too :-) They range from 8 to 20 dollars usually, depending on what you get obviously. Plus, if you sign up for JCP Rewards (totally free, no obligations to sign up for a card or anything, risk free.) as long as you spend money there they send you a 10 dollar off coupon. (It also helps if you know someone that works at one--we get a 20 percent discount ;)

I in NO way will profit or financially benefit from you buying any products from there or signing up for the Rewards program, it's just honestly a really good deal :)

    Will have to check that out, thanks! I found some nice Danskin workout wear, in plus sizes, at Wal-Mart. So far they have held up well.

    I always do a google search for "JC Penney printable coupons" before shopping there, and can usually find a $10 off purchase of $25 coupon. Couple that with their sales, and you have better prices than thrift shops!
  • Walmart also has workout gear in plus size. I LOVE the yoga pants from danskin. Sooo comfy!

    I went to JCP yesterday and purchased several SJB outfits! Many of them are on clearance right now so you can get a good deal. They also have them online if you don't find the colors you want in the store.

    If you sign up for Jcpenny email, they send you a 10.00 off 10.00 coupon every month or two. That is my kind of deal :)

    I'm going to let you and everyone else in a little secret. 1. If you can find anywhere that sells the item for less, we have to match the price. 2. If you accidentally leave your ten dollar off coupon at home and you let the associate know, they will scan the barcode for the one they keep behind the register. 3. If you find something on a rack where the sign says it's less than what it rang up for, tell them what the sign said and as long as it's no more than a 60 percent difference, they will give it to you at that price.

    Just a few helpful hints :)

    Yeah, all of our summer things are on clearance right now because we're putting things out for winter. So, ladies, if you're in need a new suit for next summer, now is the cheapest time to buy :)
