Taking Advantage of the Misfortunes of Others
The hip shoe store in Downtown Town is going under, and I am now the proud owner of these ($40) and these ($50), while M is sporting these (also $50). I would feel more guilty if I hadn't bought my Goretex boots there, but I still feel a little guilty. Honestly, though, I don't buy shoes like that for retail (very often). And a huge number of the shoes she stocked were Naot, to which, as we all recall, I am allergic. Still, it feels kind of seedy to have nice new shoes at the price of someone's destroyed hopes.

Ooh, I want those second ones!!!
Also? Blogger won't let me comment with my gmail account today, thus my livejournal account. (Yours is the 2nd blog that I had trouble commenting on.)
well, they would rather sell them than not sell them, even at these low prices, right? (I'd totally have bought all of those...)
Wait. We had a hip shoe store?!?!
Cute!
And I had a similar feeling when I bought a ton of half-off books at my favorite independently-owned bookstore which is in the process of going out of business.
I love the first ones! Super-cute.
I love the shoes!!
