Default XL and 3X top in the same day!

Seriously! Shopping over the weekend I bought an XL shirt in one store and a 3X in another! I know sizing differences irks every one but oh my gosh! Could we get on the same continent as consistency instead of on another planet?



Thank you, I feel (slightly) better now.

Sizing is totally absurd. Like many women, I have three or more sizes in my closet – that part is not unusual. But in my case three sizes in some things ALL FIT THE SAME!!

Drives me crazy. I try on EVERYTHING when I shop. It used to be hard to ignore the size on the label but it's not any more.

From the same store I bought pj's size 12/14 then a dress that was a 2x. Both items were made out of a knit material. The pants in the next size up were huge, while the dresses fit so well I didn't even think to go down a size.

I definitely hear you...I barely used my employee discount while working at Target because every time I go there, it seems like if I bring 5 different sizes into the dressing room, I'll fit into at least 3 of them. I had one day where I bought a medium and a 2XL shirt on the same receipt...that was disheartening.
