No Flippin' Way!

I get Bath & Body Works emails from time to time when they have a sale. There are certain things I like that I won't pay full price for - so I keep my eye out when there is a little extra in the budget for some nice lotion or hand soap on special. This morning I got an email from them and clicked on over to see what was on sale and found these flip flops. I almost had a heart attack. Are people in this economy paying almost $50 for a pair of flip flops? I mean they are cute - but not that cute. My friend Gayle is trying to stick to that amount of her weekly grocery shopping budget.

  2. Those will go perfectly with my $30 toe nail polish.

    Gotta have my feet looking good while I'm walking since I can no longer afford gas!

    :o)

  3. I'd pay almost anything to make my butt look smaller.....$50 might be a bargain if they work, LOL

  4. A mere $ 5 per toe. When you look at it like that... yeah its still crazy.

  5. I will admit that in the past few years that I have learned that it's worth it to spend money on a good comfortable pair of shoes. But flip flops? Probably not!

  6. Hey Julie, Just so you know those are "Fit" flops and are supposed to do wonderful things for your butt and legs! I think that's the reason people are willing to pay for them as they are not just a pair of flip flops(or so they claim) While I would never pay more than a couple of dollars for flip flops, if I believed they could really make MY butt smaller, I'd take out a second mortgage!!!

  7. Seriously?! Wow. And here I was griping that I paid 9.99 for a cute pair at Target!
