Yes, even if I'm just in the normal section to shop for a friend. Though for truth, someone did once tell me, "you don't belong in this store." I was just in the store to buy some gloves they had on sale.

LMAO @ the fat police!! Loved it!!

@ the NSV.. it's the best one I could hope for myself... I still have to conquer normal shops, though.. I can only go to superstores where everything is up to biig sizes. In small shops in the city, the lady clothings are not up to my size. I still can't shop there.. :/

That's awesome!

That's really cool that you actually had to leave because nothing fit. I remember having that problem but in the opposite direction. Were your ears burning after you left?

I am so glad I never have to darken the door of Lane Bryant's again, too.
