A patched together lifestyle of thrift and charm...

Bargain Shoe Shopping - My Version...

 I've been wanting some new 'fun' shoes. (When don't I want some new shoes?)  
I had a certain style tan sneaker in mind.  But I couldn't find them...
not online (and not paying $70) and not at any shopping malls.

So - enter 'the next best thing'... Or 'I may have to compromise here'...

I happened to swing past a certain 'discount big box store' and my car turned in...

Oh my - they had some cute and super cheap shoes...
 
And the quality was just fine for what I wanted them for.

And look - tan casuals... and still some left in my size!
 Not sneakers - but they'll work - I'll take a pair of those... 


And... for just $6.97 they had these sneakers with the cutest lace detailing...
(I'm thinking with maxi skirts!)
I miss having red sneakers... so why not?

And at that price - may as well get a gray pair - I can use them too. 
So three pair  - plus a bar of dark chocolate (a kitchen staple)
for less than $30...  And all of them new and not thrifted... 
Woo Hoo!

I'm wearing my new tan casuals as I type.
Yep - it's gonna be a good summer!
 
Do your shopping trips ever go anything like this?  ~Joyce

Sometimes and when I get great deals like that it makes me happy! I stopped at that same "big box" store this morning and was able to get 10 pair of underwear for $5! I thought that was a great bargain. I never like to buy undies for me, but sometimes you just have to do it don't you? :-). Great shoes. I like them all.
Blessings,
Betsy

Hey - you get bargains when you can - and if that happens to be 'undies' - so be it! :) Funny how you knew which 'big box' store I was talking about :)
