Someone beat me to it, but I was going to suggest a gift card, too. Maybe I'm just different than most women, but I wouldn't be insulted (I don't think) if I were given a bra as a gift. Maybe if I made it a habit of not wearing a bra around others, I might take it personally (they're disgusted by my braless personality, LOL!).

I buy my bras at Walmart, because that's what I can afford. Another problem I have is that the hooks (usually the bottom one, sometimes two) get bent in the dryer. I've tried using a laundry bag (or whatever it's called) meant for bras and jackets with zippers, but then the bras (and jackets) don't dry very well. I have large breasts (I'm not even sure what they are now...I've found both D and DD bras that fit), which are very saggy (I have very low self-esteem over this), and I'm sure part of that is due to not wearing more expensive, better supported, bras. Of course, it's probably more due to my weight gain and age, but they were starting to sag in my 20's.
