I'm not trying to sass anyone, but a strapless bra for a full figured woman is an act of engineering. Much like the flying butresses that stablize the sides of a cathedral, or a suspension bridge spans a bay.
As a seamstress I assure you it is easy to hold up nothing, i.e. a size A cup. or even a size B cup can be held up with reasonable tightness around the ribcage. The fuller cup requires more than this. The weight of the bussom must be redistributed across and down by various wires and seams. It is an art of construction.
On that note: finding a "good" one that doesn't leave you spilling out some where or a "breast roll" overflowing from the top for less than $20 is pretty rare.
I think the nicest full figure bra I have seen that is mass market it from Lane Bryant (LaneByrant.com), but that is at least $38.
You might try Fashion Bug (FashionBug.com), they are a subsidiary of "Charming Shoppes" which owns both stores.
For yet another option try "LaneBryantCatalog.com" or "Romans.com" which are also owned by the "Charming Shoppes" umbrella. *note lane byrant catalog IS DIFFERENT from the "Lane Byrant" stores. They sell totally different merchandize.
That would be my best bet. Unless "hanes her way" makes a strapless. Or Target.com makes a fullsized strapless. If those two have options those might be the cheapest.

EBay and Lane Bryant are good choices. Also, try Avenue. They're not always the cheapest, but I think their bras are better than Lane Bryant's. And trust me on this, full figure plus strapless plus cheaply made is a recipe for disaster.

you should check out torrid.com, and click on clearance they have a white lace on for $9.99 and if you look on the right they have a black lace one for $4.99.
