Now I have your attention smile
In films TV etc, ladies often go fishing down there bras for various items, a pearl, in what we are watching atm. Do women really keep items (other than the obvious) in their bras. Mrs P says she has too much down there to keep anything else (lucky me)

I agree with wildswan16- wobbly you do not have to sink so low.

Actually this seems like a question a 12 year old boy would ask an older woman in the hopes of shocking her. I don't doubt that the majority of GNs are unshockable by such a juvenile question - we have all, I think, experienced a lot worse.

Well, it is something a bloke just can't ask any woman is it? And we're mostly a broad minded lot. Mostly.

I keep tissues and occasionally money. But not coins as they're too uncomfortable and don't stay put. When the DC were young and fudging for my door key was difficult with not enough spare hands or time to fudge around my handbag, I used to keep my door key on a piece of string around my neck and tucked into my bra.

Of course, if women's clothes had pockets as generous and men's we wouldn't need to utilise bras as pockets.

Whisky, vodka, gin, lager, and mixers, WB, but in your post you have transposed two letters, so it says ◯◯ "bra" instead of wine "bar" . grin

Back in the days when we had pound notes, I put one down my bra but it must have fallen out as I never saw it again. I didn’t make that mistake again either.grin

Spare cash (in bank notes) when travelling. No-one is going to get at it there without my noticing!

Regularly find far too many crumbs there. I was never bothered by that earlier, must be an old lady thing, as I distinctly remember great aunts dusting their blouse-encased bosoms free of crumbs.

Dumplings according to DH!

NanaandGrampy Sun 08-Apr-18 12:43:37

I used to keep my phone in mine :-)

If this is the best you can do perhaps you should clear off again WB!

Just me

Are you thinking of supporting your man boobs, Wobbly, and need advice on storage opportunities?
As an ex Guide I keep a clean hanky, a bit of string, a gizmo for taking stones out of horses’ hooves and tuppence for the phone in mine.

I occasionally keep a tissue under bra strap if wearing something sleeveless with no pockets.

I think it used to be more common for hankies to be kept there and my mother used to tell a story about a woman at a party rummaging in her bra and muttering “I knew I had two when I came” smile

I think it's just a light hearted question not at all creepy. No need to tell him off!

maryeliza54 Sun 08-Apr-18 20:27:20

I would keep the balls of any man stupid enough to ask me that question

Ukulele28 Sun 08-Apr-18 21:18:07

Me...nothing apart from....me! My friend keeps her mobile (on vibrate) in left cup, cigarettes and lighter in the right while at work. ?

Cherrytree59, I recently learned how to do accents etc from my phone. Keep the finger on the letter when typing and alternatives including umlauts will appear on the screen. Drag your finger to the letter required.

Lindylo Mon 09-Apr-18 09:36:41

Just me and if I have to a tissue as it's a handy place. Anyone see Dickinson's Real Deal? One of the buyers keeps her wads of cash in hers!

Eddieslass Mon 09-Apr-18 09:40:33

I sometimes pop a hanky in mine if there's not a pocket in my clothing

katethecleaner Mon 09-Apr-18 09:40:54

I keep my cash (notes only) in my bra- it's the safest place! I get a few funny looks but if anyone wants it they're going to have to fight for it!!

Rosina Mon 09-Apr-18 09:45:24

I don't seem to have any pockets on anything I wear so if the handbag is elsewhere I do stuff tissues down my cleavage (such as it is) . Nothing as exotic as a pearl!

radicalnan Mon 09-Apr-18 09:46:08

Dog poo bags (unused) my daughter says they are a passion killer but what do the young know of such things.

And, when I am flush, a sweaty tenner for emergencies.

anitamp1 Mon 09-Apr-18 09:49:55

My boobs, my boobs and nothing but my boobs.

Outtawork Mon 09-Apr-18 09:50:34

l used to keep my mp3 player in my cleavage, as l had no pockets, must have been allergic to the metal as l got what looked like burns, took months to clear up.

NannyBadcrumble1 Mon 09-Apr-18 09:56:34

My bra is a respository for various items such as phone, a lighter, pack of ciggies, a baby rat, and a bottle of beer if I need to be ‘hands free’ at parties. These are not all at the same time I would add! My DD has coined a phrase Bra Food, as bigger busted ladies we find all sorts of morsels can accumulate down the cleavage. We must be very sloppy eaters!
