Hey all!
Victoria's Secret has a bunch of 30A, 30B and 30C bras on CLEARANCE. (Unfortunately looks like they're all out of 30D
I just ordered two 30C demi bras for 9.99 each! SO CHEAP for bras!!! It looks like they have even more styles of 30A and 30B.

Here's the link to search the clearance section:
http://www.victoriassecret.com/ss/Satellite?c=Page&pagename=vsdonlineshop%2FIntermediatePageTemplate&SASCategoryId=1289999056405&ClearanceIndicator=Yes&InterClearanceId=1289998256288&SASNavFlag=Yes
Just put in your bra size and select "Victoria's Secret Pink"

The code for free shipping over $50 is: SHIP50VS
The code for free shipping over $100 is SHIP100VS
I think there might be some other savings if you have the Victoria's secret card.
I'm not sure what the return policy is.

I don't really know the bras will fit either, (does VS run small or large? How are they compared to Calvin Klein bras?)
Once I'll get them, I'll let you know how I find the sizing! (And I got a bathing suit, so hopefully that'll fit too)

Hope this is useful!

Free shipping on just $25 now!
Code: SHIP25

Note that VS doesn't do in-store returns so you must return by mail! Even for exchanges, you have to pay for return shipping. That's the part I like lease about them.

I haven't tried on that many VS bras, but I would say that the band is similar to CK, but the cup sizes in VS are slightly smaller.

Okay so my shipment arrived- so quickly!
The XS bathing suit is really cute. The cups are a big further apart then I might prefer but it gives nice cleavage.

The real let down was that the size 30C bra is TINY!
It is like a thigh bra and fits perfectly....around my waist.

Stretched out the bra is 22" inches around! WTF!

My rib cage is ~26" and the VS 32B bras are a bit big on me, so I figured the 30C would be perfect - the cups are decent... but it will definitely need an extender. At least a 4" extender. :/

I'm not sure it was a mistake or if all the 30 band sizes are that small.
Any one else had an experience with VS 30 band sizes?

I've never tried VS bras, but that's pretty tiny for a 30! My 28-band bras measure about 22" unstretched, so if your 30 is only 22" at full stretch, that sounds like a manufacturing error.

VS Pink 30 band bras run smaller than the average VS bras. I ordered a VS 30C bra that's 21" unstretched and the band fits perfectly for me on the smallest hook. However, the cup size is way smaller than I anticipated and I would need a D or DD cup for it to fit properly, but I haven't found that size online.

30C! You have to search by size in both regular and sale items...there aren't many, but they're out there.

Thanks AlterationsNeeded!!

I ordered both the 30C and 30D. The 30 band was PERFECT for me. The 30C cup was too small and there was spillage on the sides under my armpits.

The 30D actually fit me and there was no unslight spillage in any way. But this bra is cut for petites, so the cups are slightly too far apart for me. But I prefer that over many of the TLBC bras whose cups are cut a little too close for me.

These Victoria Secret Pink Bras are the best fitting bras I've found in a decade!!! Too bad the quality leaves something to be desired tho, but at $14.99 for two, I can stock up.

Just wish I could find the perfect bra someday soon! =)

btw, by girls barely fill out 32A bras - there is almost always some gaping. Imagine my surprise that I am now wearing a 30D. Granted, the bra band is like a TLBC 28.

petitestyle - you sound exactly like me! Always thought I was a 32A, but come to find out I fit 30C/D.

Have you tried Calvin Klein or Betsey Johnson?

I have this one in 30C by Betsey Johnson: http://www.betseyjohnson.com/product/in ... d=11233181

I had to go up to a 30D for this Calvin Klein one: http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/calvin-klei ... n=category

I tried on the 30C for the CK one, but I was spilling out of the top part...I think because of the extra padding in the bottom. I am usually not big on padding, but it is just in the bottom, not in the entire cup.
