Tit-for-tat

When I hear the words “sale” and “bra” pushed together my nips perk up.

Especially when the comfy-cups in question are of superior quality, not like those flimsy items that La Senza sells. Much like the illusion that bin after bin of padded “push up” bras offer, they lie (Must we, must we, must we all increase our busts? What happened to au natural?)

Once again, Secrets From Your Sister is holding a “Dead Bra Sale.” On Saturday, Feb. 13, 2010 you can put your tired bras to rest. Bring in a bra that is washed and in good condition (hygiene people) and get 25% off on a regular priced bra.

Sounds like a tit-tastic trade since the old bras that have had their run go on to romp in soft, laundry detergent scented pastures. In reality they are given a new home, a lovely new set of tats to support.
Every gently worn bra will be donated to Sistering, a women’s agency that provides programs and services to homeless, low-income and marginalized women in Toronto. A bra is something that is easy to take for granted. It may not be a necessity, but it’s a form of support, and for some women it can make all the difference.

The sale will go on from 10am until 7pm at both of their busty, bustling locations at 560 Bloor Street West (Bathurst station) and 2501 Yonge Street (Eglinton station.)

So whip em’ out for a good cause and you can get your paws on something special for the ladies. They deserve it.
