I go bathing suit "shopping" at high end stores because I have found that higher priced bathing suits last much longer than your standard Target brand (I do love target, though). I find the brand,style and size that works best and shop around Ebay until I find the right one. I only buy NWT, seeing that these are bathing suits we're talking about.

The ones I get at Target are really cute but pretty much junk by the second summer. Go to the Lands End website and click on the overstocks tab. They won't be as low at $20 but they usually have some for $30-$50 there.

I can't buy a swimsuit without trying it on first, so they are a good (and inexpensive) option for me. I think Lands End carries the best tankinis, because they offer every possible type of top and bottom combo for lots of different body types. You sort of make your own swimsuit, choosing a separate top and bottom for your body needs. Sears carries the Lands End brand.

Good quality stuff that the company guarantees. Buy a variety of sizes/styles and return what doesn't fit to Sear's. What about Land’s End? Good quality stuff that the company guarantees.

I bought a really pretty one-piece halter suit from J-Crew right before spring break two years ago for $15. Shop around in the sale tabs of upscale clothing companies: including some that market to a "mature" clientele like Lands End and L.L. Bean. You can find awesome deals, particularly if you pair them with coupon codes. Also, the Bargain Shopper Lady has been featuring swimsuit deals from Victoria's (though I think they mostly apply to bikinis). Actually, winter can be the BEST time to buy a suit.

This usually doesn't happen until spring though! Good Luck on your search Old Navy or Target usually have some fabulous styles on the cheap and better yet, they have tons of sales and markdowns.
