Sports bras - impossible!
Unbelievable.. I've actually went to the effort to go to like 4 different shops - 2 general sports shops, a running shop and marks and sparks, and none of them have bras that fit me at all! Granted I've recently discovered I've been wearing the total wrong size bra (or atleast have been losing weight without noticing... and NOW they're the wrong size), and I realise I'm quite small (32B) but seriously?! I need SOMETHING!

I know it's not ideal but have you looked at lessbounce.com, they have a very good range.

Looking at their website, and they appear to have every size BUT mine... I'll maybe go have a look on saturday seeing as I'd have to try it on anyway. PAH.

I worked at JJB while I was at uni and remember spending ages sorting out the sports bra's (at the managers request may I add!). You women are terrible when shopping - you pick something up, try it on, then just sling it back in the general area that it came from, no respect for how long it takes poor monkies on minimum wage (like I was) to neatly put them back on hangers again, in size, model, and colour order
And whilst I tried to sort them all out for you ladies... you all gave me dirty looks!
EDIT: My apologies for the generalisation, may I add that my comments are based on the 'typical female customer' I experienced in my time there.

Having worked in a shoe shop, I learnt the annoyance of people not putting things back the way they're meant to be, especially in the shop I worked in - all the shoes were on display!!! I don't know why people would then just put them down anywhere!! PAH! Anyways... when I go in, I'll be sure hang it up neartly again where I found it.

I'd suggest going to a proper bra shop, not Debenhams  the folk there will measure you and fit you for a bra that fits.
Best thing I ever did was get fitted for one

Just keep looking/ look another day. A 32B is not that weird a size, maybe they'd just run out that week. I admit to not being able to find any sports bras around myself- Ethel Austins had 'Triumph' bras in their sale but they were in a size 40
