Whew, I almost placed my order this morning for shoe.buy. I had to ask Callie what color mocasins she wanted.
Can't wait to see what the contest rules are.

Sure - bump up the rates just after I finish doing a TON of shopping :rotfl: Guess I will just have to see if there is anything else I haven't bought for the kids or DH yet :p

Anymore stores going to be announced, like Gap ???? (hint, hint :D )

She's my baby. She is going off to college in a few weeks. She could ask for anything and I'd comply. Just don't tell her.:rotfl: She didn't want to pay $52 of Minnetonka Moccasins when we were at Wisconsin Dells last week. I told her I could get them through Sunshine's a lot cheaper, $38 list price minus sunshine's coupon. Ya!

I am wearing them right now, I bought them a few weeks ago and love them ! I can even wear them to work, they are really comfy and super light weight, but don't look too casual. I got the chocolate/gold from shoebuy

Great! I was hoping for bad reviews :rotfl:!! I need discouraged.

Actually though Im glad to hear you wear them to work...that was what I was thinking that if they were "dressyish" and comfy I might buy a pair of black or brown ones for this year.

Please check out Kmarts Back To School specials. This is the first and maybe the last time you will see this kind of rate increase for them. They are such a good merchant to deal with and have gone above and beyond the comparable stores to them to work with us. Sears too, we couldn't ask for a better AM to work with and if we pull out some business for them, who knows, we could get more exclusives from them.

Actually, our forum contest is NOT going to be linked to making purchases this time. It is going to be in addition to the shopping specials. :)

i mean if i have to buy this stuff anyway i might as well get these %increases.

sears just went up, didn't they? i should have waited to place the order i just placed last week. darn. but i still got a good deal, what i ordered was 50% off anyway. couldn't turn that down.
