I need to find a really cheap prom dress that is under $50, that is a Plus size because I'm a big girl. If you have any suggestion please let me know.

I would like to suggest Dillard's or Macy's. If you shop after there is a prom, then they have really AH-dorable dresses that sell from $15- $50 bucks. I bought 5 dresses one day and my total only added up to like... $120.00 , meanwhile the dresses were all originally worth OVER $7 bucks, so it was a very very good idea.

I have two prom dresses that are bigger that I had my seamstress make for me that I will sell to you if you like. I live in Webb City (by Joplin) if you want to come try them on. You can e-mail me at snowgirl6570 AT sbcglobal.net if you would like!

When my mom and I were looking for a prom dress for my senior year we checked out Lazerus (now Macy's). We found a dress I loved on sale not to mention they had coupons available in the paper. After taxes we spent right around $30 when the rest of my friends were spending $100-200 for dresses they were less happy with.

Cassie, I live in Bolivar, MO. Some years ago, a friend and I went over to the festival at Friestadt. We got there early, so we checked out the area and ended up in Mt. Vernon. In Mt. Vernon there is a wonderful little bridal shop that had pre-worn gowns and prom dresses in a back room (available to the public) for as little as $5. Yes $5. I remarked that this would be a great place to buy dresses for children to play in. They were all lovely and I have no idea why they were so cheap. But since you're only 30-40 miles away, you should definitely check them out. They were on one of the corners in the square.

Cassie,

Look up Freecycle.com and join. Then you can ask for a specific size dress and see if someone has one to give away. The purpose of Freecycle is to keep things out of landfills, o you can give or ask for almost anything -- al for free.

When you get to Freecycle.com, look for Southwest Missouri group to join. That's ours here in Springfield.

You might try a local on-line swap group or craig`s list (again local, where you can go see it in person) and post a wanted ad, there should be some in your area. Or go to some of the plus-size sites and look under special occasion dresses, you might find something you like on sale, but under 50.00 might be hard to find.
