Shopping spree on shoes

Tweet

I am in need of shoes and sneakers so decided to do some online shopping today. I went to Nordstrom Rack and ended up buying myself five pairs of Mark Joseph shoes. One was a pair of brown loafers. The others were flat shoes (called driving shoes for some reason). I got two different models, both in black and in navy. I am planning to keep the brown ones if they are comfortable and a good fit. The others I will have to pick which ones to keep and which to return as both models are similar to each other. All the shoes were on sale and I got free shipping. The total came out to about $320. I also bought myself a pair of Nike sneakers but at a different store. The first place I went to was the Nike website. I did not find them there so went to Macy's next. They came up in the search and were even on sale, which made me happy. However, it turned out the only available size was 6.5. I am size 8. Instead of trying other websites I decided to do a Google search for the sneakers and see where they are available. They came up at Dick's Sporting Goods. I went to their website and it turned out that the sneakers were actually on sale for $60.97. I thought that was a good price so decided to get them. I was hoping for free shipping but I came up short. You need to spend at least $65 to qualify. I could have tried to add something else to the cart but I didn't need anything else from that store. And I doubt they had anything there for under $5. I had to pay $8.99 for delivery. It seems like a lot to me but it's still cheaper than adding something else to the cart, especially something I don't really need. My goal is not to return the sneakers but I hope I will be able to do so in case they turn out not to be a good or comfortable fit. And I hope I get to keep three pair of shoes. In the event the sneakers and/or the shoes need to be returned there are stores close to where I live so I will be able to return them there and not have to deal with shipping them back.
