One for One

I always get hassled because of my love for shoes. Although I have bought many in my day, tonight I made a difference with yet another shoe purchase. Toms shoes has a deal where if you buy one pair, they send a pair to a child in need. Toms also has a $5 off promotion for first time buyers. Just enter "FirstTOMS" at checkout. Now I can not only feel good about buying shoes, but I can be part of giving a new pair to someone who truly needs them. Maybe my love for shoes can eventually put shoes on the feet of every child in the world. A noble thought, don't you think?

  3. Marcene,

    Doug has an obsession with clothes and shoes. One time in church, he gave a talk about how he has trouble saving because he always wants to buy clothes and shoes. To make a long story short, one of the young men bought him a "Shoe Fund" piggy bank with high heeled shoes dangling from it as a going away gift when we moved. I, on the other hand, could live in flip flops and sweatpants if I was allowed to. :)
