I may be developing a potentially bad new habit.
Kaitlyn and I finally decided to stop by the outlet stores in North Charleston near the base. To my surprise they had a Converse outlet store there.
In the last two days I've purchased two new pairs of shoes.
Yes, Converse are normally purchased for a pretty penny, but before you judge, check this: A pair of the Foxing Grunge sold 55.00 retail; sold in the outlet store for 20 bucks. BUT! they also offer a military discount. I paid 18 bucks for a new pair of Converse. So, I went back today and paid 27 for a nice pair of the All Star Bodega's, also MSRP 55.00 (I've seen them for MORE). I think the most expensive pair of Converse in the whole store was 39.99. Not bad at all!
They even sold baby sizes, down to almost newborn-size Converse. Adorable! Throw all this together with other Converse 'accessories' for sale, and this outlet rocks. I may own quite a few pairs of new shoes before the month is out. I never thought I'd own more than, oh, three pairs of shoes at one time since I am partial to the nice expensive shoes. I now own four: Under Armour running shoes, two pairs of Converse and one pair of Converse combat boots (they are so comfortable!). How many pairs will I own by May? Stay tuned...
