Idea on where to find a mat. dress?

Anyone seen any fairly inexpensive maternity dresses around? I haven't seen much and now need something to wear to DH's grandpa's funeral next week. Heck, I don't even think I'm big enough yet, that I could probably buy a stretch dress that's not maternity but I haven't seen anything I don't hate (I'm not into ruffles and prefer something sleeveless that I can put a cardigan with).

Any ideas?

I only have two pre-prengancy dresses that I bought after losing weight, and both of them are fitted and won't work.

Thanks!

    A lot of the summer styles are really flowy and have a little extra room that might work.  I have a few cute ones from Old Navy & Express that fit me right now and I'm 11 weeks further along from you (they're not maternity).  I also have a really cute dress from Target Liz Lange Maternity that I'll be wearing for Easter.  It w

    I found some great maternity clothes at this consignment shop:  https://www.nineconsign.com/  It looks like they just moved from Minneapolis to Hopkins right next to Baby Grand.

    Maybe check Target and Motherhood.  I've seen some cute dresses at some of the consignment stores for cheap, but it's hit or miss on sizes.

    Thanks ladies, I will check those out!

    I have checked Target and they had only a couple of dresses and I didn't like them. Plus a couple still had sleeves and I'd prefer something summery. I wish they had more selection b/c I've gotten a couple of their tanks and I really like them so far.

    I might check Motherhood again but so far I've been extremely disappointed in them. Their stuff was much too boxy for me and just didn't look right. Plus, I heard they sell your information...wtf?

    Sorry to hear about DH's grandpa.

    I love Gap Maternity, but also saw some cute maternity dresses at Motherhood.com when I was looking for dresses for my shower. GL!
