To be bitter that M&S are charging more for bigger bras?

its a DM article

M&S are charging £2 extra on bras that are a DD or bigger. Am I right to be bitter about this? I don't get a discount on my shortarse trousers that use less fabric than longer length. They don't charge extra for clothes that are a size 16 or over. I am a 30E, I am sure that my bras will use less fabric than a 40C but I will be charged extra. It just seems a bit inconsistent.

Sounds like a lot of free publicity for M&S! Just seen on BBC Breakfast that they have now scrapped this idea.

Maybe they knew everyone would be up in arms and it was all just a stunt?!

The "internet campaign" was probably on Facebook or some such social networking site...

There is a massive campaign on Facebook. 13,896 members in one group! I would think that's probably hwat did it.

Still, I'm still annoyed enough that they even tried it to think twice before buying a bra from M&S again.
