Kirkcaldies Sale in Wellington - Cheap Bras
 
Public Service Announcement!

The Kirkcaldie & Stains sale this year actually had some items worth purchasing!


They have been rather naughty lately with their sales in that their products are barely reduced or they just get a lot of stock overruns in. They have still done this but there's some very good specials if you are on the lookout!

I had most luck in their lingerie department, but not for little old 12C (34C?) me unfortunately. Nope, I went shopping for my mother and got her some gorgeous fayreform bras. I'm sure she would love me posting on a website that she is an 18DD :lol: Example: Sports bras down from $55 to $12.50 and just nice everyday satin bras for $20. Another one for $13. SCORE! Got me a pretty little calvin klein cami for $15 though.

She was absolutely thrilled. So I thought I would put this post up in case you are a E, F or a G cup you can get bras really cheap at Kirks this year.

And no, I don't know when they are intending to leave the 19th century (I am not hopeful of them getting to the 20th, let alone the 21st) and get rid of their antique tils.

Or at least, get computers. Make the antique tils for show or something.

All part of the charm or something.

I definitely recall you making a disparaging comment about kirks Mr Bru...I think in regards to 'are you being served'.

That is weird though. There's tradition and there is just weird.

What is honestly surprising though is that the staff generally are quite well trained and I have never really had to stand in a long line (even in their sales). So while they can't just "check the computer" for an item they tend to be able to get it in for you. Or actually know their stock. But hell, get some computers people. Please.

Hehe.
