ok so i am a thick girl and proud and I have notices that it is so hard for us heavy set girls to find fashionable clothing at regular prices i mean to get a decent pair of jeans for a heavy set girl at lets say sears is dam near $30 as to if you were to look at clothes for a girl that was like a size 5 its wold only be 10 what the hell is that is this the governments way of saying "ok if you want to be big than thats fine go ahead but your going to be dam near broke doing it" its like there punishing us for being big and secretly sending us a message to loose weight what do you guys think maybe i am crazy but thats how i feel

Hey homie, I shop at Torrid. That is the place to shop. 98% of my clothes come from there. I love Torrid. I think I will get some money next week, so I can go shopping there. Oh my god, and they came out with credit cards. I wish I had one.

Aiight. I will. I need to go get my license so I can drive there. I'm getting tired of being on the bus. But I will let you know. Torrid is the greatest store in the world. I need some new shoes. I'm tired of wearing the same color chucks.

The government doesn't have anything to do with it, but the manufacturers will do anything they can to rake in the money. Try shopping online. There are bargains all over the place!
I have clothes in every size from 3 to 28, because I have an illness that causes my weight to go up and down like crazy, in no time at all. Needing so many things led me to online shopping, and it's been great! I compare prices and find the least expensive things I can
Don't give up on yourself. You deserve the best! Get it.

You just have to look for sales on things.
I don't know where you live, but around here there are Plus size sale racks in Walmart and I got some tops there for $3 or $5.
I was in the mall last week and I went into the back of the B. Moss store and found a pair of really nice size 16 Stretch jeans for $15
We also have a store called Fashion Bug. Half of the store is Plus sizes and the other half is regular sizes. They had sale racks all over the place. I got some really nice things!
If you don't mind wearing used clothing, look on Ebay.
I love the type of clothes they have at C.J. Banks (The Plus version of Christoper and Banks). But I can't afford to buy the clothes there. So I look for that stuff on Ebay.
