A bra gauging device is an apparatus which enables the wearer to measure the correct bra size corresponding to the actual bust size of the wearer, preferably up to a fraction of an inch. The apparatus includes a measurement band, a left cup-measuring mechanism, and a right cup-measuring mechanism. The measurement band facilitates the individual bust measurement of each breast as well as other breast-related measurements around the upper torso. The measurement band further supports the left cup-measuring mechanism and the right cup-measuring mechanism positioned against the breasts of the wearer. The left cup-measuring mechanism is used to measure the bust size of the left breast retained by the left cup. Likewise, the right cup-measuring mechanism is used to measure the bust size of the right breast retained by the right cup. The apparatus also includes a left wing body and a right wing body for lateral customization and support.

A tape clip apparatus for resiliently and removably installing on a measuring tape, includes a main body portion hingedly connected to an engaging portion. The engaging portion is sized to substantially overlay the main body portion. The main body portion has a window including an indicator, and at least one leg having an engaging panel. The engaging portion includes a triangular cut-out tab which is aligned with the indicator in the window in the main body portion. The engaging portion also includes a cradle for holding the measuring tape, and a resilient clip for engaging the engaging panel. The cradle holds the measuring tape such that the measuring tape is visible through the window, and the triangular cut-out tab extends away from the main body portion and the engaging portion when they are folded together.

A bean bag tossing game assembly for achieving a desired separation between platforms includes a first platform and a tape measure. The tape measure is coupled to the first platform. A tape of the tape measure is selectively extensible so that the tape measure is configured to measure a distance between the first platform and a second platform to achieve a desired separation between the first platform and the second platform.
