You would be surprised what you can find in second hand stores and Good Will too. I have found some great items that were pretty cheap.

Ooooh, great idea! I usually don't get lucky on regular clothes there, but I bet I'll find some nice workout stuff. Thanks!

Marshalls at tafts corners has a lot of workout clothes at discount prices. you have to shop and try on though, and don't assume on the sizes. Some days I get really lucky, some days not...but they change their stock all the time. I can wear small in some brands, and XL in others..go figure. The smalls are a real ego boost. :-) I've found some really cute things for under $10.

Spandex isn't the problem, it's just that yoga pants tend to hit me really low on the hips, instead of the waist, so when I go to do squats, it's major Plumber Butt action. Plus they don't have much wicking material.

I used to have great success with Tek Gear, but all of their pants got really thin, and I'm stuck between a Medium and Large.

Hi everyone. It turns out that I've actually lost enough weight that even my workout pants are baggy -- this can be very awkward when they start falling down when I'm trying to run on a treadmill at the gym. Does anyone know where I can get some good quality workout pants that AREN'T yoga or sweat pants?

I tried Kohl's and the Essex Outlets yesterday, but found only VERY thin and clingy material that I don't want to run in. Ideally, I'd like something in a capri or knee-length short that costs less than $30. Any ideas?

Also, just a head's up to all the women on this team!

I went shopping at the Essex Outlets yesterday, and stopped into the Bali-Playtex-WhateverUnderwearBrand shop -- EVERYTHING CHANGES when you lose weight, lol. Turns out, they're having a sale on Champion fitness gear -- buy one, get one 50% off. Considering how costly a good sports bra can be, I thought I should share this with you all!
