Enjoying Buying Shoes Online ~ BOGO

Have been looking for a new pair of sandals. It has been a couple of years since I bought any. And it is time. Skechers and Clarke's are two favorite brands. But my hair stylist wears Yellow Box flip flops. So I started online shopping for those. I thought if she finds them comfortable, they should work for me. She is on her feet all day after all. Bingo. Found a great BOGO (buy one get one half-off) sale at Shoe Carnival. I have ordered from the site before. You can return in the store if not satisfied. So I purchased two pair of sandals. I hope they are comfy. Ever bought shoes online? I was hesitant at first, but make sure you know the site, the return policy and its reputation before making the purchase. My feet will be a happy camper soon.

Terrific deal! I hope they are comfortable. I used to buy mine online years ago, but my feet changed over the years and need to try them on. I usually buy European shoes, and they all fit differently.

yes , before buying anything online we must make sure the site is genuine, have a good delivery and return policy and the product review is good with atleast 3 star rating given by those who purchased the product.

I used to be like that until I took the plunge. Nothing to lose if it a reputable site with a good return policy.

I need to try shoes/sneakers on before purchasing. Most styles do not fit me easily so I am limited with selection. I also like to see how they look on me not a photo. But glad you were able to find something you liked and looks like you got a terrific deal!

I mostly buy shoes in stores, I want to see if they suit me right away, I think I save time

@LowRiderX Same here on some brands, that is another reason I try to stick with Skechers or another brand I know well.

@CarolDM There are probably standard sizes, we have this problem here, for example, I wear 39 from one manufacturer and 40 from another ... the sizes are not the same

I discovered that I had to try shoes before buying them. I could only buy Skechers because I know exactly my size there.

I buy Clark shoes online but only the ones I really like and surprisingly the best prices I've found for the ones I really like are on Amazon, I was floored .... free shipping with prime is nice too. Sometimes I'll buy a tshirt or something like that with a holiday theme but I always make sure to buy a larger than I would need size, those are not reliable like the shoe size I buy.

I wouldn't really be brave enough to purchase shoes without first trying them on.

@CarolDM I guess it depends on your feet. I have one big toe that has a very tough nail and sometimes causes problems.

I've never ordered shoes online. I must try on different sizes in different brands to get the right fit. You really lucked up on a good sale.

Nope. I don't buy shoes online as I have to try them first before buying. My shoe size is petite so it is difficult for me to order online.

I have not, but I have been thinking about it. I could use some sandals, but I think I am going to wait until they start going on sale. I will make do with what I have until then.

Skechers are one of my favourites too, I’ve not heard of your new ones. I’ve only bought online once, and I had to send them back . Now I stick to shops I can go in, so I guess I’ll not be getting new shoes for a while.
