Work your bargain shopping magic for me!

[OKKiddo]

I've found a bathing suit that might work for this postpartum body that I desperately hate . I think this particular suit would polish up the look slightly (especially after pairing with a sarong) to the point I might be able to continue living after I see myself in pictures in a bathing suit. The caveat? It's almost $200!!!

Please help me figure out the thriftiest way to get this suit! ETA: I like the Twilight (navy blue) color the best.

I looked on Retailmenot and it looks like you can sign up to receive their newsletters or e-mails and get 10% off. Might want to give that a try. :)

Yowza! Cute suit but so expensive.

I think my best bargain-hunting tip would be to try to find a similar style suit in another brand. Land's End has some cute shaping suits for ~$120.

This one seems similar to the Spanx style:

:yeahthat:

I just posted this one in another swimsuit thread:

Can't beat the price and it is surprisingly flattering (it holds in my pooch and doesn't ride up my butt).

Lands End just sent me an email that their swimsuits are 30% off and there is free shipping for over $50.

ETA: The 30% off is for certain swimwear, and the sweetheart suit PP linked to isn't one of them.

I would consider MK suits. They are well made and very comfortable.

Wow! For that price I can definitely afford to get it and try it (and keep it as a back up if it's not exactly what I want)!

There is a thread in bargains about a flash sale at Garnet hill
I thought this suit was very close to the one you liked:

I have this suit and LOVE it on (it was a lot cheaper last year):

Is there anything similar in the Spanx line for Target (Assets?)


I saw this while quickly checking Target. Quality might not be the best of course.

Thanks so much for all the help! I surfed around on all the links you guys provided and almost bought the Spanx at full price-- I really do like it best. I even tried to get the Walmart suit in Dots (CUTE!) but it's totally sold out in my size and no one carries it near me. :(

Then on zappos (following the link someone provided here) I redid the search for my size and Miraclesuit's came up as an option--which were VERY close to the Spanx suits in style. I tried to do a search for a coupon code and 6pm.com's website popped up and had it so much cheaper than zappos. I've placed the order with paypal on 6pm.com and I hope it works out!

That's the suit!
