Where do you usually buy your shoes? when is the best time to buy? There are times that we buy shoes not in purpose because it is on sale and branded shoes, you can not just get it anytime with a low price. It is an opportunity to have it. Well, there are times I am like that. This destroys the budget. But how can you resist when it is on sale?
What about you? do you have specific time to buy shoes? or just wait until the one you are using is already worn out then you will buy another, or you have a regular time to buy shoes. What about when there is sale?

I am not partial to where I get my shoes, it is all up to who is having the best deals on what I need. I have shopped at DSW before as well as Famous Footwear and various other places.

I love buying shoes at kickers because they're really durable. Sometimes I buy shoes on sale because it's always good to have an extra pair of shoes in case of an emergency. I usually buy shoes after my payday.

Kickers? Oh!! well I am not sure if we have that kind of store in our country. But anyway, I usually go to the bargain house if ever I would like to buy one. But I am not buying most often except my kid's shoes.
Thanks for the reply.

I don't buy shoes very often at all. Barely ever actually. I buy them whenever I find a really good sale or when I really need a new pair. I currently have 2 sandals, one pair of sneakers and one pair of flip flops. I have had all of those shoes for quite a while now. The sneakers I have had for about 7 years now. They still look pretty good two. I try to take good care of my stuff.

Me either, I'm not buying shoes or sandals often. I have a lot of shoes and sandals but they are given to me by my friends. I keep them and they still look very good.
Thanks for the reply.

Since I have had my daughter I defiantly buy less shoes and clothes. When I was single I paid more attention to my closet, clothes and shoes. Like every women, I liked to have some new, fashion shoes from time to time. Now I spend more money on my daughter's closet than mine. So now I buy shoes for myself when I really need them.
I used to buy some shoes from catalog, like Victoria Secret, usually those on sale. I usually buy shoes and clothes on sale. Sometimes I go to outlet store and get good branded shoes, which are cheaper than in a regular store. Sometimes we find good shoes in Marshalls too or DSW.
When I buy shoes first I look at price, than a fashion and lastly at a comfort.

I hate buying shoes. If I find a pair I like and am comfortable in, I sometimes go back for another pair in a different colour. Because i often wear my trainers I tend to keep a pair 'spare' for when the current one are too worn. At the moment, I'm wearing croc-type shoes because a) I find them comfortable since they're 'unsquashed-toe friendly'.
b) they were £3 a pair ... so i got more 3 different colours!

Oh!! really that's good!! there are other people who have plenty of shoes because they buy it when it is on sale even if they will not be using it. Just a collection, and just use it for the future. I donlt know if this can be considered as a wise buying?
