Thanks for thinking of me, Sundae. I have a major problem finding coats in thrift stores because I too need to lose some weight. Maybe heavy-set women don't donate to charity? Lucky for me, last winter was relatively mild and I got by with a fake fur lined hoodie thing. But last winter was unusual - normally we get cold and lots of snow.
Yeah, I imagine mailing a coat from the UK would cost more than the coat was worth. I have until about November, so I figure I can save some each week from my pay (if I can refrain from killing the owner) and buy a brand new coat. There's some nice ones that aren't too expensive in the LL Bean and Lands End catalogs.
