I'm crashing here instead of in the board crashing thread.
Try TJ Maxx, Marshall's, Daffy's, Burlington or other off-price places. You have to hunt, but sometimes you get really lucky. If you need to buy pantyhose, you can also get good ones here at a low price, and they will last, rather than buying cheap pantyhose.
Also, at department stores, try the misses' section instead of the juniors...the stuff is not as trendy, and it's easier to find basic pieces that you can use in multiple outfits.
