Sh*t which reminds me, I think I still have a pair of sandals that needs returning. Good thing I have a year! I swear, Amazon, if you f*ck Zappos up I will personally find some sort of corporeal analog of you and murder it. Not even because I use it, that pair of sandals is the only thing I've actually purchased from them and I'm going to return them. But damnit, it's actually a successful business model built on not treating customers as enemies to vanquish and it would suck mightilly for that to be wiped out.

That said, though Zappos has generous return policy and good customer service (important for an internet cobbler), I've never had a problem returning anything to Amazon.

Amazon's decent. Zappos is exceptional. The only other time I tried to buy something there it was out of stock..so the customer service person sat on the phone with me and helped me find what I was looking for at another retailer. THAT is what Amazon had better not ruin.

Yeah, I agree. Zappos is (was) exceptional ... and, yeah, I fear that might change. Oi.

I'll put ShoeBuy second to Zappos. Amazon after both.

Good! I can just add on a pair of shoes to get free shipping when my order is under $50.

Stopped by DSW while at the mall and spotted the snow boots I was coveting last season. I snatched up a pair. Not going to wait for these to go on clearance.

Cute Steph!

I just bought these along with 6 other pairs of shoes for O and me, all "athletic" type shoes. (O got these cute, for a 9yo, hi-tops)

Damn you, Nordstrom anniversary sale!

I am generally pretty blah about shoes these days since I still can't wear heels. I'm bored with flats.

eta: Just ordered 3 more. In my defense, prices do go up tomorrow.

Ordered: Keen Springwater cycling/spinning shoes, which retail for $130 but I found them at eriksbikeshop.com for $90.
