Where to Shop on a Budget: The Plus Size Edition!

I am SHOPPER!!! Doesn’t matter what I am buying, it always needs to be on sale. I shop almost every week, but have to limit my spending habits! After reading a Pin about Shopping on Budget, I noticed there were no Plus Sized Stores listed and decided to construct my own list. So here it is! MY TOP 10 LIST!!

1) www.asos.com (Curve Plus) Lots of chic, hip clothing. There clearance section is where it's at!!

2) Old Navy-In-store/Online They are always having a sale! I have an Old Navy Credit Card, which allows for more perks! I often use my card for a split transaction (charging a $1), just so I can get the extra perecentage off! If you are a Plus Size 14-20, you can purchase things out of the store. That also depends on your build.

3) Forever21 -In-store/Online I first got introduced to this three years ago and have been hooked! I lived in New York for six months and would shop every weekend! Many cities have stores that carry the Plus Sized Line and if you can try the clothes on before you buy, as you can not recieve money back for the clothes. If your order online, you can ship it back and recieve your original form of payment back. I would say check the site weekly, as they update every week!

4) https://gstagelove.com/- I recently found this site! The prices are no more than about $20 for each item! They have really cute Plus Size Clothes! When I get my order in, I'll blog about it.

5) Lane Bryant- In-store/Online I remember when this was the only place I shopped! Not so much any more, as I now know of other places and their price point has risen. When I do shop there, I come with a coupon! They are always having a sale too! So catching deals is pretty easy.

6) Torrid- In-store/Online This is place is great, when there is a sale! Their prices are a little high and I sometimes feel like the quality isn't always the best. However, if you can catch the extra 50% off Clearance. That's usually the best time to purchase from them.

7)Target- In-store/Online I LOVE TARGET!!! Target is great for more than just your household items. They have the cutest and chic clothes around! The best thing about them, is that they offer coupons, via their website, and they mark these down on a regualr basis. They, just like Old Navy, have the ability to wear clothes from their regualr section, based on your build. I would definitely say try on their clothes and always wait for it to go on sale or be marked down! If you can't wait, you could always do a price adjustment, within 14 days!

8)Macy's - In-store/Online Macy's is always having a "One-Day" sale. They carry a lot of brands under one roof, wich is their strong side. When I went through my "Urban Phase" I shopped there a lot! They always have coupons and a hefty clearance rack! The key with them, is finding a store with a good Plus Size section. If you are a card holder, there are several perks for them!

9) Fashion to Figure- In-store/Online This is one of the stores I visit everytime I'm in Brooklyn or the Palasides in New Jersey, after passing over the Hudson! There clothes are hit or miss. They always look nice, but sometimes the quality isn't the best. The company was created by the grandsons of the guy who started Lane Bryant. They have decent price points and normally are always offering some sort of coupon.

10) Curvy Exchange- http://curvyexchange.livejournal.com/ This where you go when you want to buy or resell your Curvy Clothes!!! It's an awesome place, filled with Curvy Fashionistas!

**Honoary mentioning is Eloquii! They are going out of business &everything is on sale!**

That's my list! I would always say sign up for alerts, clubs and mobile coupons! Anyone offering a Birthday Club (Torrid) take full advantage of it! Happy Shopping!
