Town Shop (for every bra you trade in) towards the purchase of a new bra is doing this as a current promotion. Is Victoria's Secret doing this?
The only other option is the garbage which is a lot less attractive than being paid for a useless object.
With over 80% of women wearing an incorrect sized bra, Town Shop offers a real service to its customers. They have professionals on site who help women find their perfect size every day.
Cars for clunkers was a hit, because the government helped you receive money for an old and beat up car in order to help you purchase a new car. But how many cars does the average person have? Likely one. For the entire month of March New York City's landmark Bra store Town Shop is running its "bucks for bras" special, which allows women to bring in an old bra and receive $10 off the purchase of a new bra. Now is a great time to get rid of those old bras and walk around more confidently in a perfectly fitted new bra.
So, how do you know if a bra is old and in need of an upgrade?
The magic number is 100. That is the number of wearings when diminishing returns sets in. After 100 wearings the elastic is compromised, the cups stretch, and the bra loses its elasticity, which it desperately needs to keep “your girls" where they were meant to be! Gravity is mean!
If you have four bras in your rotation, and rotate wearing them, your bras will last about a year.
Unlike wine, art and George Clooney, things don't always get better with time. Bras are one of the prime suspects.
Town Shop is a New York landmark. Open and serving the city since 1888, it sells top name brands and gives the customer something they cannot receive online: a real fitting. According to Oprah, 80% of women wear the wrong size bra. Shopping at Town Shop keeps women from being an 80%er! (or we can say “shopping at Town Shop puts women into the 20% club!)
“Bucks for Bras" Bring one old bra to Town Shop and receive $10 towards a new bra.
The offer is available up to 5 old bras for the purchase of 5 new bras.
