The Adventures of an Aussie Girl in Albuquerque: June 2007

This post is going to be about shoes and socks. Lets start with the shoes....

Last year when we went back to Oz, I bought a great pair of shoes. They are a pair of red Mary Janes and even though they cost $90 I fell in love with them and had to have them.

I have worn these shoes to death (this can be confirmed by the smell) and now that we're starting to think about what we'll be taking when we move back to Oz I began to debate about my beloved shoes. Should I take a pair of worn smelly shoes back with me or find something to replace them? I looked around the stores for the particular brand (Planet Shoes) and couldn't find them or anything similar. But then I had a brainwave, what about the internet? Of course! Within minutes I had found the Planet Shoes website. They had my shoes and the best part.... they were only $US 29.00! I couldn't believe it, they had my size and my colour (I was after a black pair this time), so I got ready to place my order. It was then that I realised they had an online special - if you bought two pairs of shoes you got a $5 discount! Well, how could I resist, I had a pair of stinky clogs that needed replacing too! Really, it was just smart business since I wouldn't have to pay shipping for an order over $30. So here they, two pairs for only $53!
