Hundreds of bras stolen from Victoria's Secret

MANCHESTER — An undercover investigation is undoubtedly needed to find out who stole hundreds of Victoria Secret Very Sexy brassieres from a Mall of New Hampshire store.

Victoria Secret manager Kelly Duvall called police Thursday at 4 p.m. to report that up to 200 of the push-up, but not padded, bras in various sizes and colors were missing.

The bras were stolen from the storage area of a display case.

Each is priced as between $40 and $45. Police said the total value of the stolen bras could exceed $20,000.

Anthony Hebron, spokesman for Limited Brands, parent company of Victoria's Secret, said that estimate is high.

"We have not been able to assess what the amount is," he said. "It ($20,000) sounds a little high."

Police said the thieves will be limited in how they can dispose of the bras because of the large number of them.

I'd suspect British police and intelligence as the likely culprit in the underwear heist, they have a lot of new Islamic prisoners to question...

Pinging the humor list.

This thread is so bra-zen, there's little left to the imagination.

But, OTOH, I have huge expectations.

LOL

One thing for sure, if they find the perpetrators, they'll be busted.

I'd be looking for the 400 boobs of the B Cup gang that pulled this caper off.

Cause it means that there is nothing to pad but a LOT to push up. Must be all bigger cup size bras.

Look for any unusual increases in bras sales on internet auction sites.

These outrages will continue unless we take immediate steps to register every bra. I can't believe it's gone on this long. Where are our leaders when we need them?

This is Bush's fault!
No more wars for bras!
What did Karl Rove know, and when did he know it?

What other slogans will the left and the media (I know, that's redundant) come up with? I'm sure we can outdo them.

Silicone....

When I see a picture of her like that, I think of the carnival. You know, the booth where you throw darts at balloons. I wonder if you hit one with a dart...would it leak saline or silicone?

At least she doesn't take herself too seriously. On her sitcom "Stacked" (which takes place in a bookstore, and is actually quite funny and surprisingly not "dumbed down"), there was a scene where some "plain" women look at her and one says to the other, "I'd kill for a figure like that", and she cheerfully replies, "go ahead, it's not like I bought the last pair!"
