Shapeware Advise Needed

I know this is more of a cosmetic question, but I was unsure where to post something like this. Sorry if this is not a good place.

I have not really noticed enough sagging to worry about it yet (I got sleeved in January), but I am thinking about things to prepare myself for the future. Does anyone ware shapeware, like Spanx? I am pretty sure I will get some for times I am wearing something a little clingy. I have never worn any before and am want to know what the best brand is? I don't really have a lot of money to spend, but am willing to pay for quality. I don't want to have to buy new shapeware every week because it is garbage or because it does not work.

Let me know what your experience is. Best price? Best quality....control? Comfort?

Great question and I hope there are answers. I also always wondered if you are a size 14 do you buy a size 14 garment or do you buy a smaller size? Do they come in different sizes or S M LG XL ect.. and if you are an XXL do you buy an XL so everything is pulled in better or would that just make it too tight?

I found some shapewear that I like better than Spanx. It's called classic shapewear. It's great for after tummy tucks too

I bought spanx 3 yrs ago. Very spendy and was too uncomfortable to wear sitting. I found sweet nothings and Danskins at Walmart. I'm not a walmart shopper but ordered online. Very happy with purchase. Got 5 articles compared to 1 spanx.

Great question. I've been wondering this myself. Thanks all for the responses, now I also know where to look.

I bought a tank top one from jc penneys. It's the kind that go just below your boobs, you wear your own bra. It's comfy, and just enough "hold".

I buy these leotard type things (with a clasp between your legs) from target. I think it was like 20 bucks and it works well. It goes under my bra, so that you don't need to worry about bra size. I am wearing an XL and currently a size 14-18 depending on style.
