Some good things come to an end all too soon.
Like many women I harbour a passion for shoes, and a few weeks back I bagged myself a real bargain. I came across the perfect ankle boots…they slipped on like a glove and felt as soft as slippers to wear… AND they were half price.
B_A_R_G_A_I_N !!
So much so that I actually went back the following day to try and buy a second pair to have in reserve for when they wore out….but clearly others felt the same way and snapped them all up. Thank goodness I only ended up with on pair.
Having enjoyed the comfort for the past 4 weeks … (and smiled every-time I thought of the price)… they have now stretched so much that I’m almost slipping out of them.. and one has developed an embarrassing ‘pfft’ sound with ever second step.
clip…’pfft’…clip…’pfft’…clip…’pfft’ ..
I sound like a farting draft horse, and look like a duck as I waddle to keep them on. The funny thing is that they seem to have ‘let go’ all of a sudden, yet there is no sign of damage or fault that would justify me trying to return them ( I thought about it).
Lesson learned …. if a bargain seems to good to be true …. it probably is.
Damn, it looks like I better go shopping for some new ones !!
