Shoes for me for $5? YES!
Thanks to this post by CraftyHippie on Craftster I now have a source for $5 casual summer shoes.
Most people have no occasion to be aware that those cheap White Stag shoes at WalMart often run up to size 12. I generally just check the bins of the Keds knock offs (with little luck) but the ones with the elastic gores frequently have at least a few pairs of 12s. Until I read the above linked post I never paid much attention to that since the elastic gore made them impossible to wear with my very high instep.
She's right, the gore comes right out clean with just a seam ripper.
Pity they never seem to have 12W shoes in those bins, but so far these seem comfortable enough with thin socks. :) And if they only last a summer, well they were only $5.
*contemplates the things she can do with a supply of cheap black, white, and sometimes navy, kakhi, or red, canvas shoes*

Small patches like the silver stars from the notions aisle!
And that is just the beginning. XD
