Anyone using Gwynnie Bee for clothing?

A friend turned me onto this service, it's sort of like Netflix for clothing! You pay a monthly fee and get to "rent" clothes in size 10+. I was skeptical but since practically nothing fits 43lbs down, I figured it was cheaper than buying new only to find those too big. I have only had 2 shipments but so far so good, if you really like the piece you can keep it for a discounted price.

Years ago there was a consignment shop in my area for people who had WLS but it has since closed and I don't seem to have good luck at consignment stores so I figured this was perfect, as I shrink I just change my profile and get smaller clothes.

If anyone wants a link please PM me, I don't think we are supposed to post them here, but you do get referral credit if friends join. (That is not why I am posting, just wanted to share the concept).

How much is the monthly payment?

How much is the monthly payment?

I have been very luck at my local Goodwill.. I have found $200.00 jeans for only $4.50... it is a perfect place for me while I am losing weight and going down in sizes.

Steph there are a variety of plans depending how many pieces you want to have at once, your first month is free then the plans start at $59 for 2 pieces at a time.

sweet, i might have to try it out. i've also been "thrift shopping" and popping tags! :ph34r:

I singed up for their free 30 day membership a couple weeks ago and honestly...not liking it very much. I've received 4 items so far and sent all of them back...one becuase it reeked of smoke and the others because they just didn't fit right.

I'm hoping my next shipment will be better :blink:

Ohhhhh good to know. Thanks! I'm not a smoker, I didn't even think of that.

I have received about 10 pieces, so far none of them smelled at all. I do wish they carried pants because that is where I struggle in terms of losing weight, a shirt can be a size or two too big, but pants fall right off. I am going to keep going, the dresses I have gotten have all been good for me, and a blazer I may keep.

as I start loosing I will become a Walmart addict, since I stay at home I don't need fancy clothes, so the Danskin yoga pants are and will continue be my choice, I will buy 4 at a time, thats my plan!

There was an issue with my account...all the clothes in my "closet" were already out with other users, so they couldn't send me anything. They extended my free membership for another week. So, one thing I will say, is their customer service is awesome!
