How often do you buy bras?

The last time I bought bras (until this weekend) was before DH and I started dating - over five years ago. I take really good care of them (wash them separately on the gentle cycle - don't put them in the washer) and even though they didn't need to be replaced....I wanted new ones anyway.

Also, I have pride, so I buy my bras one size bigger than I actually need...but this time I got the right size which really makes a huge difference...who would have guessed?

Anyhoo, I am super excited.

I usually buy about 2-3 bras once a year (Jan or July---the VS annual sale months!)

I'm like pp; 2-3 times and year and when VS has them on sale.

A good fitting a bra is the best thing ever!

I always wonder if my bras are actually 'good fitting'...

I'd say I buy one or two a year when they're on super sale.

How many bras do you have then, if you buy several a year? What do you do with the old ones?

I buy once a year to a year and a half, and usually get 2 or 3 at a time. When they wear down, I just throw them out. It takes me awhile to get to that point, though, as I try to rotate them enough to keep them from wearing out too fast.

I will confess that I buy more bras than I really need. The past 2 years my boobs have been through quite a change from pregnant, nursing and now deflating so my size has fluctuated quite a bit. Plus I used to buy cheap bras since my size would change. Now that I've been at the same size for quite awhile I'm starting to buy more expensive bras but only when I have a coupon. So right now I'm buying a bra maybe every 3 to 5 months.

I buy bras about 2 to 3 times a year, and I usually buy 2 or 3. I just bought a [ridiculously expensive] strapless bra over the weekend, but for the most part, I buy all my bras together.

The old ones, I tend to just throw out. I think I've got about six solid bras that I wear all the time, which is good enough for me. I feel like I need more bras, but I just don't like bra shopping. The next time JCPenney, Macy's or Victoria's Secret has a sale, I'll probably buy a couple more and call it even for the next few months.

I finally found a bra that worked and fit and was comfy, so now I buy it in two colors probably once a year. My bras are boring, but my boobs look amazing.

I'm just now down to a size that I can actually say they're staying for a while.  Between pregnancy, BF'ing, etc. I have had some major fluctuation.  I am probably going to go to Dillard's to get fitted since the girl at VS told me that I'm a 32D.  That's NOT possible. 

I'll probably buy two bras that look good under t-shirts and that I can switch to a racer back.  I need a strapless bra too...so I might be buying 3.  I probably won't buy more until these start to look like crap. So maybe every couple of years?

I think I buy bras every 2 years or so, and I buy 2-3 at a time unless I find a huge sale.  I desperately need to go bra shopping now but I keep putting it off...

I take good care of mine as well and my new favorites (for the past couple years) have been the VS Biofit push up! Love them! I probably only buy a couple a year at the most.  I throw mine away once they get wore out, which takes a long time.
