Need Maternity Business Attire...Cheap!

So as I had mentioned about a week ago, I am going to be taking on a new position in a few weeks.  I'm super excited even though it has been hard letting people know at my current job that I have put in my resignation.  Anyway, I've been working in a hospital lab for 6 years and wear scrubs to work every day.  I have virtually no "business casual" clothing (maternity or otherwise!).  Since I only have about 3 months left I don't want to make a huge investment in maternity business attire, but I'll need something.  I can't wear jeans and I only have maybe one dress that could be considered business casual and a few tops.  Any suggestions on where I could get some cheap maternity business attire?  Know of any sales?  Any help would be much appreciated!

    Try local area consignment shops, if you have FB when try local buy, sell, trade sites, Target, and Kohls are also inexpensive places to look. Congrats on your new job!

    Try ThreadUp.com It is basically an online consignment shop. I got several things for the office from there and prices were good. The tough part is you can't try them on, so I suggest using the general sized pieces. Just a note if you use them, anything you put in your cart disappears after 24 hours, so take the plunge if you want something. They do allow returns and the process is easy.

    Carson's (Bergner's/Boston Store) has nice clothes that are reasonably priced. Plus, you can use coupons on maternity clothes! Not sure if they're outside the Midwest though.

    Thanks everyone!  I live in the middle of nowhere so I'm super limited on stores I can actually go to, so I do most of my shopping online.  I'll have to check out some of the sites you've suggested!

    I wear target maternity dresses and a (regular size) blazer almost daily, and I have to go to court several days a week, so I have to look "put together". It has worked for me so far, and I've still been able to feel comfy AND stylish. If you catch a good sale, some dresses are as low as $12!

    If you have the target cartwheel they sometimes have coupons for 10-20% off maternity clothing. There was one a week or 2 ago but it might be expired now.
