Two months ago we were shopping around (via internet and inside malls) for a good digital camera to replace our outdated one. We kept on hearing that shopping via the internet will give us the lowest priced item – but what about shipping? And warranties? And after sales service? But true enough, after scouring the local shops we ended up closing the deal through an internet seller. It’s funny to think that the best buy is so far away (in a 1st world country at that) yet can be priced lower than what we have locally. Its probably the taxes being applied. But then we never stopped to ask since we got a great price for a product we like so much.
Anyone up for a 2nd hand camera?

What’s your shoe size? Are your feet the same size as your mom’s feet? How about your sister’s feet? Can you borrow shoes from each other?
Post a picture of your latest shoe buy. Tag the number of women of your shoe size, i.e. size 5 = tag 5 friends. Don’t forget to drop a line in this blog when you’re done.

I usually do not buy shoes online. I remember buying several pairs from an online store several years back, and I totally regretted when I saw them. Sure, the shoes looked great on pictures, but in real life? Wasn’t crazy over them. I just ended up displaying them on my shoe rack and allowed them to gather dust. After that, I knew online shoe shopping wasn’t for me. But last month (I think), I did it again. Here’s a pair of white gladiators I purchased from an online seller:

It does look okay on my feet right? But I tell you — when I saw them, I knew that I’m never gonna wear them. I didn’t like the make and most of all, the fit was just not right (too tight, straps don’t fit snugly on my ankles).
I hope there won’t be any online shoe purchase despite the myriad of online sellers who sell shoes. Some sell those really gorgeous ones that are sooo me
A lot of times I am tempted to buy but when I think of the money that I’ll be wasting if I don’t like the shoes, I just have to restrain.
