Did you know M&S charge women an extra £2 if they’re larger than most ontop?
As I write they have 1380 members and counting…..

As a 38E I strongly object to this taxation (well, what else is it?)I’ve felt for a while that M&S have been trading on past goodwill - that is now disappearing. I stopped buying their bras a while ago and now find plently of other outlets (including mail order) that are more than satisfactory. Bye Bye M&S.
I opened my own lingerie store a year ago (june 22nd)specializing in the perfect-fit bra and, at “BRAVADO” I encourage all women to “LOVE YOUR SIZE”. There is no extra cost incurred to me when I am supplied with DD+ (or larger) cups by my suppliers so I do not charge a ‘cup tax’ so-2-speak to my customers. Some of my suppliers supply bigger stores i.e. M&S, Debenhams and I am sure that they (suppliers) do not charge department stores extra for larger cup bras. They certainly don’t charge me extra to supply me with larger sizes. So why do the likes of these stores feel the need to ‘tax-the-tit???’ We may be birds, but we are NOT bird-brains! At the end of the day it should be the fit (& the advise from specialist, trained fitters) you are buying - not the bra…As a 36GG I know how important a good fit is!
What a load of rubbish.You would think that women would have something more sensible to say than whinging about bra sizes costing more that smaller ones.Why shouldnt you pay more for more? get a life
Big deal! I’ve been paying extra $$ for extra large (actually 2xl) sizes for years. At least $2 more for jeans, t-shirts, sweats etc in XXL sizes. Why should bras be any different?
Tom, possibly because women can’t diet their boobs away? Not saying that you’re overweight, but I know that you don’t pay more for a size 16 than a size 14 in dresses, so why should you pay more for a 32DD than a 32D?
I fully agree with you girls, why should you pay more, I have always paid more for extra large condoms too !!
