    I'm 5'11 and 335. I get mine from Target, Lane Bryant & Old Navy. I've also found Avenue to have some pretty good workout clothes.

    I buy my shirts at Walmart - lightweight Danskin tanks are $4-6. I don't spend a lot of money on them because they get sweat stained and I only wear them a couple of months. Shorts/ pants / capris I get at Sports Authority or similar store, or I've found some comfortable ones at Meijer for $15. The one thing I don't skimp on is shoes and socks (ok, two things). I usually spend $100+ on a good pair of running shoes and $10-15 on good socks.

    Walmart has Danskin yoga pants on sale for around $10, quite often. . I shop Kohls and the Columbia and Under Armour outlets for my workout clothes.

    I get most of mine at Walmart - I know, I know, but it's cheap, I'm losing weight so I'll need new clothes anyway, and they are just going to get sweaty and nasty anyway.

    I also get stuff at Target and discount stores like Rugged Wearhouse (got the most comfotable pair of Nike Capris for $20!).

    I'm in Canada too!

    I buy workout clothes at Winners, Walmart and sports stores when they are having sales. I have Lulu running shorts and a pair of shorts for yoga.

    As long as they are comfortable, wicking material or dri-fit I don't care what the symbol is I'm working out not advertising for an overpriced brand!

    JC Penney & Kohls, they have great prices & great sales. I'm not spending a fortune on workout clothes, especially since I drop a size every 3-5 weeks. Luckily, our whole extended family is doing this "get healthy & lose weight" contest this year, so I'm passing my "too big" clothes down to my sisters & they don' t go to waste! As it is, I have at least 15 large grocery sacks of clothes ready to go to Goodwill right now! I refuse to buy expensive clothes until I'm at my final weight goal.

    Tech shirts (dri-fit) are good from almost anywhere- Nike, Walmart, Target, Running Room, The North Face, etc.

    For bottoms, I find that I just LOVE my Nikes. Now that I'm a little smaller, the Old Navy stuff fits me a lot better and is a lot more flattering than it was 40 lbs ago (plus it's so much cheaper than a lot of other stuff - so keep trying periodically!).

    Winners tends to have good sale prices for Champion, Nike, Adidas, etc. Worth checking out the racks. I've paid very little for some very good sports bras there.

    If you're willing to spend a little more, I am obsessed with my Ron Hill pants: http://www.ronhill.com/aspiration-contour-tight. Most comfortable things I think I've ever put on my body.

    Of course, I also love Lulu, but the budget just isn't there for me most of the time. I think if I were to spend money there, it'd likely be on sports bras.

    I live down the street from an outlet center so I get all my gym gear there.

    Columbia, North Face, Nike, Reebok and Under Armor. They are a bit pricey, but they have survived everything I have thrown at them and last forever

    I used to get my stuff from Target and Old Navy, but you get what you pay for.

    I buy Danskin at Walmart. I try to buy them on the clearance racks so they only cost me $5.00 or less.

    I love the Danskin pants. I get my t-shirts from Target.

    Interesting -- are there Danskin products in Canada? I remember reading about their stuff in previous threads, so I scoured my local Walmart for some of the workout stuff last time I was there, and I couldn't find any.

    I like consignment stores. Many people buy workout gear and NEVER use them (I've been guilty a time or two ;) That 30$ Gap shirt is mine for 3$

    Sometimes I shop in the kids section at Target as well. XL shirts fit and are half the price

    www.forever21.com has some really affordable stuff! TJ Maxx too. Gap sometimes has good deals if they're on sale.

    Not sure if you have these where you're at, but I go to Sport's Authority for exercise clothes. I usually buy Under Armour or Nike and they sometimes have 20-50% off sales.
