I wanted to get your attention and I see my subject worked. Since losing 20+ lbs my old bras don't fit. I just found an organization online that gives donated bras to girls and women who were sex slaves in Mozambique. They sell the bras in a market to make money to live on. The reason they because sex slaves was because they were desperate for $$. Read the article below. I just mailed them 12 old, almost new Victoria Secret bras that I paid so much money for. I am really glad that I can do something good for these girls!

    OK! I ADMIT IT! i GOT SUCKED IN BY MY BASER REFLEXES AND HAD TO LOOK. Does that make me a bad person? Does it?
    I just couldn't resist to hear about the reaction I get from Cinflo! Have a great day Cin. From the Dr.:wink:

    Thank you for posting! I just put together a whole bag and didn't know what to do with them. Apparently goodwill doesn't take bras (unless they have a tag).

    AWESOME!

    I was seriously just looking at my bra-stock the other day and wondering what to do with them- same thing, nice expensive bras that no longer fit. Thanks so much for the idea. :flowerforyou: :heart:

    Wow this post came at the perfect time! I went through all my old bras last night and have about 5 that I wanted to either recycle or give away and after some googling couldn't find anywhere that would take them-also the material in bras ends up in landfills since none of it is recyclable. Then I saw this article on CNN today and have been sharing it with everyone. Thanks for posting this! Good for you for 20lbs down and good job helping others at the same time :)

    This is awesome. I have so many that don't fit me anymore and they are too expensive to just throw away.

    drink beer or things with hops. Not girly martini's or any of that. Beer, made with hops. Hops have estrogen in it, thats why when you see so many guys with beer bellies, usually they have massive mannaries to match, Beer = boobs.

    I usually donate my bras/clothes to the domestic violence shelter in Tennessee as a lot of woman leave the abusive situation with only the clothes on their backs and are in dire need of undergarments ... thanks for the info.. my next bag will be going overseas :)
