So I am on a quest to find a pair of scrubs, but I haven’t been able to find any. I have tried all the medical supply stores in my area (that I know of) and none have carried them – they all seem to only carry, you know, medical supplies. Any one know of a more traditional store chain that sells them? I’m in the Arlington/Ft. Worth, not so much Dallas, area if anyone knows a specific store. ---

There should be a uniform supply store near the hospital. If not, you can always try online. [Here’s](http://www.lydiasuniforms.com/overture_main.htm?GTSE=GOTO>KW=medical+scrubs) a link for low price scrubs, and [this place](http://www.jascouniform.com/go.cfm?srccd=g0139) has been in business quite a while. ---

WalMart sells scrubs, Target has a few (in Central CA)… [Nursesstation.com](http://Nursesstation.com) has always treated me right and some of their discount stuff is really great. Try Uniform shops in the Yellow pages and call first. Cyn RN ---

**HeartOfGold** , there is a store in the Grapevine Mills mall that specializes in selling scrubs. I haven’t been to that mall in a couple of months, but I’ll bet the scrubs store is still there. ---

My mother got some at Burlington Coat Factory. I don’t know if there are any Burlington Coat Factories near you. ---

I saw some being sold at Walgreens when I was in there last. And Wal-Mart was already mentioned. Or, you could call and ask the nurses at a doctors office. I asked my peds nurses once and I think they get theirs out of a catalog mostly though. Depending on what you are looking for I might have some shirts my mother in law would be willing to part with. She had to have them about a month ago for a new job and now they are going to a more uniform look. As in she went out and got pastels and patterns and now they want solid colors. Good luck! ---

Lots of clothing and department stores around here sell scrubs, and there are a half-dozen stores that sell ONLY scrubs. It may be because this is the hometown of Mayo Clinic. I never thought that’s unusual. ---

BTW, this ancient thread got resurrected earlier today by an advertiser (someone gave a link to a store that sells scrubs), which I reported, and their post got cornfielded. Despite that, the thread is still showing up as being “current,” as it got bumped by the spammer. ---
