Wonderful bargains

I went to Macy's the other day, just to return one dress I had bought a few days earlier. Well, for some reason I ended up at the shoe department. (Go figure!)

Started taking a look at shoes in my size, and then, WOW! Found one pair of Michael Kors pumps, one pair of high heeled Michael Kors sandals, and one pair of nice ankle boots... for $9.96 usd each! So, I just couldn't help myself, bought them all. I ended up also buying another couple dresses there.
Back home, I suddenly realized that if they had that sale in my nearby store, maybe they also had it at the other two stores in town, so I was at one of them the next day, and yes, found three more pairs at $9.96, and the next day to the final store, and found 5 more pairs there! So, about $120.00 usd spent, I have 11 new pairs of good quality and style. Can't beat those prices!
So, if you have a nearby store, do yourself a favor and stop by the shoe department. :)
Now, I was presenting as my evil twin brother for all three visits. SAs didn't make any rude comments (I wasn't expecting them to!) but you could tell that they were on the verge of wanting to ask if they were for me or what. But I decided not to let them know for certain. Had some nice conversations with them, though. I worked on retail for a couple of years, so that is always a good opening, talking about how rude customers can be, talking on their phone the whole time, or just leaving merchandise out of place, etc.
By the time I'm done, all three ladies finished up the conversation with "come back and see us anytime!". (You know I will)

AHHH rats, I was just this morning in a town with a Macy's. Maybe the sale will last as I will be there next weekend also.

Being somewhat addicted to lingerie, I never think to check out the shoes in the bigger stores. Guess that's why I only have one pair of women's shoes that (barely) fit....

Sounds like Joan needs to go shoe shopping and get a deal. *-*

Now that's what I call power shopping!

I have more than once bought something particularly shoes because they were such a great bargain then got them home and realized I didn't have a thing they went with so it was back to the mall. :mrgreen: Yea I know a dirty job but someone has to do it! :lol:

I did not have any luck at Macy's as the good deals were not in my size or ugly. But I did pick up two pair of heels at JCP for under ten dollars each.

Kimberly,

Sorry to hear you didn't have luck at Macy's. At least you did at JCP!

Heather,

That's usually the way it goes for me... about building the outfit based on the shoe. :) I'm just doing my best to help the economy!
