Following a campaign by women with busts bigger than a DD, M & S have reduced the price of all larger sized bras so that they cost the same as the smaller sizes, and are also taking 25% off the cost of every bra, no matter what size, with effect from tomorrow.

The larger bras were being sold at £2 more per item.

I'm afraid I can't get onto the Sun website at work to provide a link, but I saw the head honcho from M & S on GMTV this morning confirming this.

Go and get some new undies, ladies. You now have the perfect excuse!

    I was surprised when I heard that M&S had been charging more for larger sized bras. I mean, the amount of extra material used is negligible, especially compared to a pair of size 8 jeans and a pair of size 22 jeans which are the same price.

    The M & S guy and the lady who'd run the campaign had to agree to disagree on that matter! He reckons the cost of the extra material in a suit/pair of trousers/dress etc is absorbed but it's not in a bra.:confused:

    You can find size 8 jeans in your M&S? Rarely anything below a 12 in mine, and size 8 is as rare as hen's teeth.

    Nah, course not. I'm a 10 in M&S jeans (and a 12 in Uniqlo:o), but I'm an 8 on top and I think I grabbed the only 2 size 8 tee shirts they'd got in their special offer.
