For many years, I used to buy big and tall men's clothing, online from JC Penney's. It is almost impossible to find anything in stock and I am reading the quality of the clothes have gone downhill as well. So my question is, where do you buy your big and tall clothes that is comparable in quality to the old JCP?

I buy Big and Tall clothing at JC Penney in Penn Square. No problem with selection or quality.

Big and Tall | Big and Tall Men's Clothing - Destination XL (http://www.destinationxl.com/mens-big-and-tall-store/)

They have a store on NW Expressway, right next to Dave & Busters. I go there for my clothes, it's great.

JCP, Burlington, King Size Direct, Men's Warehouse. Back in the 1-2X days I slipped in and out of Dillards and Speigel Outlet quite a bit.

Dillard's has a Big and Tall section, some stores have quite a bit more than others. I think the Penn Square location carries more than the Quail location but both have more than most other similar stores. That is where I do most of my shopping, especially on their end of season sales where they have stuff up to 75% off at times. Casual Male XL/Destination XL gets some along with a local store in the Englewood. I am an in betweener, shirts come from big and tall department but pants are from the regular side of the store.

Casual. I like the St. Johns Bay button down shirts and polos.

You can sign up on the Casual Male XL/Destination XL website for email coupons. They have some pretty good coupons and sometimes 2-for-1 sales on their house brand polos and t-shirts (in sizes up to 8XL).

Same here, they always seem to have a decent selection and I've never had a problem with the quality of thier clothes.

I like Kohls too but Penny's is a lot closer for me.

If you're tall, you're tall. If you're "plus-sized", lose weight.

That's easier said than done as much as some guys love beer and fattening food and snacks. Not making you eggs disappear when piling on bacon would be unthinkable.

Perish the thought of cutting down on bacon

I have no trouble cutting down on bacon .. but when it is made well it is crispy enough to just snap into bite sized pieces. Saves time.
