Has anybody seen one of these recently? Have hunted around in RL and online, but cannot find anything that does not have TV characters, animals, inane meaningless scrawls ..... help! (needed for sports day next Wednesday too)

I had the same problem last week. Ended up with a pack of 2 from Asda (second one was white with red polka dots). They were in the girls section, but are very plain (no frills or tucks) so the red one could be worn by your DS.

I think it was £3 for the two.

Asda do red polo shirts- mine have worn one of them instead in an emergency.

Rainbow Babies. I'm not sure if you would get it by Wednesday though.

Gap had them last year. Otherwise Asda or Tescos?

Gosh, thanks everybody! That's great, will follow up on those links and try our local Asda too.

M&S do them in their school uniform PE section. Packs of 3 for £4.

I buy them for the ds's to wear out of school. Lovely colour and bargainous price.

I just want to second the frustration at trying to find anything plain. DS is in a play and needed a plain beige T to decorate. Sheesh - I may as well have been looking for the lucky golden ticket for Willy Wonka's chocolate factory.

After my extensive trawl round the shops, I think only Zara and H&M did plain Ts. Can't remember if any red...

So, not much help, but glad to get that off my chest

Millets have packs of plain t-shirts reduced at the moment.

Our school sell them for a few pence (less than £2)
I have last year's, aged 7 if you want it.

I got a 3 pack in Sainsburys for my DS a while back and one of them is just plain red.

Have you got a red one you can turn inside out ?

Job done

One of those things I learnt on these boards some time ago.

failing any of those, try your local t-shirt printing place - was the only real shop I could get one from, didn't want to pay delivery for a cheap t-shirt for sports day (wonders why DC couldn't have chosen to be in blue house - much easier!)

sainsburys often have plain t shirts- usually in packs of 3 different colours- that wash well, and don't go out of shape.
