Budget Spanx or the real thing?

I was watching a special awhile back on the person that created Spanx. I was surprised to find out that the original Spanx and the ones they are sell at Target are the same thing. It's similar to other companies that produce not only name brand items but also store brand specific items as well.
Usually when you buy name brand items the cost is more because you are paying for the name.
 
Spanx so remind me of the girdles my mother used to wear (daily! with a dress and heels) in the 1960s. Are they at all comfortable?

Funny, I was going to ask that very question. Is it a girdle and is it comfortable?
 
My friend told me that she buys berkinshire control pantyhose. She says they make you 5lbs thinner instantly.
I have a spanx girdly thing. It is not spanx but I bought it in the bra store. It was expensive. I have worn it once in a while. No they are not comfortable and mainly I feel like a firmly packed tube of chub in it.:rotfl: No lumps and bumps, just packed fat.:lmao:
 

OP here - thank you so much for all of the replies and information :worship: I love the DIS! Since it is for vacation I'm going to go with the Target brand. Thank you for the reviews! I haven't noticed a need for them in my everyday life (my jeans and skirts fit), but I haven't had on my nicer dresses in awhile. I haven't been watching what I eat or keeping up with my work-outs for the past several months. I'm still on the small side but I let things get away from me and now I'm getting back to my normal eating and exercising habits - it's amazing what an eye opener it is when some of your favorite clothes no longer fit! But, for right now I need some control in the tummy and bottom areas so I'll try on the different styles at Target. The "muffin top" must be avoided! I cannot afford new clothes for this trip, but I can afford the Target Assets!
