Yep, but if you actually order from commercial, you will find out that the "handling" part is usually the cost of the 2nd item...I mean, since when did it cost $12-$15 to ship a bra!! I just say no thanks and don't order!

I have a confession to make. This hot, hot summer, I have enjoyed, for the first time, wearing a comfortable bra or on a few days, no bra at all. I made the decision to have breast reduction surgery, going from a D++ to a B cup. My insurance paid for it. Not the answer for everyone.......but I am enjoying the freedom, no heat rash and I am able to walk into a room and have people look at my face, not my chest. I have breast fed all six of my children and figured that "the girls" had done a good job. Love being able to finally wear comfortable bras.

I tell DH he will never know how good it feels to let the girls out at the end of the day. Esp. with an underwire bra, which I have had to wear since age 14.

I also tried the Genie Bra and did not like it. I gave mine away. It rolled up under my breasts and was very hot.

Get home and proceed to put one on...got it partway down (put it on over head) and sorta near where it was suppose to be and it got twisted. I pulled and pushed and pulled and pushed but I was stuck in that thing and it was about to choke me. I thought I was going to have to find scissors to cut it off. If the bra had broken, it would have slung me and the girls across the room!!!! The only "AH" about that bra was the "AAAAHHHHH" I said when I finally got it off!!!!
I once tried on an over-the-head sports bra, which must have been a relative of the one you had. Got it to my armpits and figured if I ever got it the rest of the way down, I'd never get it off. Those things must be designed by men!!!

I've seen something very similar in the Sunday advertising sections for a LOT less than that.
