Default Any store brand bras with non-stretch straps?

My cup size is H, as in, "Holy moly did you see that girl's chest?" I usually special order my bras to get a bra with good support. However, I don't really want to invest in a 90 dollar bra that I can only wear short term as I'm moving my way down through band sizes so headed to the department store today to find something to get by with. I know I'm not going to find that cup size but can play a bit with getting a bigger band size than usual to make it work. What I couldn't find though was any with non-stretch straps, and that I really can't compromise on. Any recommendations?

Hmm... I think the Playtex Just My Size has non-stretch straps on some styles. I bought two recently and one wasn't stretchy straps. I don't know how large they run, though. I do know that they used to sell an 'Almost A' cup, and they come in half sizes on the bands in some styles.

My grandmother used to work for Playtex, made bras actually, in her younger days - we always wore Playtex stuff because she got it for crazy cheap...
