Affordable but quality Yoga mat, or splurge? Advice?

Hi everyone! This year I really want to work on my personal health and saving more money, I’d like to get into yoga again. The only thing is getting equipment. had a pretty cheap yoga mat from five below, but trying to use it has been annoying because it was rolled up so long it flares up on the edges / isn’t super grippy. I had no idea quality yoga mats were so expensive! And workout bras – the bane of my existence as a double D. They’re either so tight, the pads get lost in the wash, and/or most of them are racerback and kills my shoulder blades. I’ve been looking around stuff like fb marketplace/thrifts. Any advice for getting quality without jeopardizing comfort? Am I being too picky about this? Thank you!
