Ha! I knew some fabulous PSr would show up to this thread and divulge their "hidden" splurges! Sometimes I find Chantelle and Wacoal at my local TJ Maxx. In larger cities sometimes you can find La Perla at TJ. Sadly, they are usually not my size (typically nothing in the most popular middle sizes, just really tiny or at the other end) but I've lucked into some very good Wacoal deals there.
I used to love Felina. Mid-priced, beautiful stuff.

Sometimes I find an awesome buy--and where I do, I buy multiples....since they are well made, they last...
great "gift" that goes well with good scotch/fun Christmas presents..... )
cheers--Sharon

I don't care what the tag says. If you aren't wearing a thong, we can see your underwear lines!

Yes
I buy in bulk when VS has a sale, though I usually only do it once a year. I only wear their cotton hipsters, only in black. I have I think 3 pair of light nude just in case I wear light khakis. So, like $3 or $4 a pair? They last FOREVER, I still have pairs from 4 years ago that look like brand new. They hold up perfectly.Niel|1391034927|3603696 said:I got a gift card for Christmas to a department story and decided to buy some undies
It was a store that sells reasonable priced things and expensive designers.
I remember thinking after seeing a few of the higher price tags, "who pays this much for underpants !?"
So how much do you pay? And I don't mean lingerie or something for a "special occasion"
Just normal daily wear.
I tried the Aeries this year, and found them too..thin and overly flimsy stretchy if that makes sense. The were like...floppy. They didn't hold shape at all.Sakuracherry|1391052327|3603949 said:Like Monarch, I love Aerie (American Eagle) cotton undies. They are inexpensive. I also buy a lot of Wacoal undies when I go home because they are too expensive in the States. I don't think I've ever paid more than $20 for one.

I try to wear only cotton underwear, which is hard to find. I generally like a bikini cut and these have been my favorite from Target http://www.target.com/p/gilligan-o-malley-reg-women-s-cotton-with-lace-bikini-assorted-colors/-/A-14563048#prodSlot=large_1_15
I also like the hipster seamless type from Victoria Secret, but they are more expensive and are synthetic, so I don't buy them as often. +1 over here for those who hate thongs!!!

Target used to have the best undies. I bought 3 or 4 packs of them (3 to a pack) and I thinkt hey were Gillian O'Malley. Suddenly, they were gone I wore the ones I had until the holes were too big.
Lil Misfit|1391129437|3604606 said:Usually about $5-$6/pair at Target. I used to buy the fancy schmancy VS ones but then my butt got too big for them to look cute anymore and I couldn't justify the price when I buy new ones every couple of months. LOL! I wore thongs when DH and I first met and after about 2 years of marriage I switched to bikinis and his response was "Well...it was nice while it lasted!"
kefira|1391121342|3604444 said:For some reason, I have major OCD about matching bra/undies. Most of my sets are from Cleo by Panache, usually last season's sets for around 60-75% off through Amazon prime so I don't even have to leave my house to shop for lingerie. I think the undies end up around $8-15, maybe as high as $25-30 for a set I really like, but want now, instead of waiting. Rough numbers because I'm too lazy to go dig through my old Amazon orders.

madelise|1391149270|3604816 said:Sexier ones? That are maybe just a few pairs of my 'collection'? Around $10ish or so? My regular ones are a few bucks each. I have always loved Victoria Secret's V-Strings, and those are sold in 5s. Once in a while, they'll have a sale so that 2 more are thrown in. I love those sales.
I have also surprisingly loved some undies from Forever 21. They're also just a few bucks each.
I hate spending a lot on them since they always seem to die on me rather quickly. I'd rather throw them away without guilt
Stupid lace always snags and rips.
