girls n their shoes??

my lady spotted some sandals advertised in a mag from matalan and really liked them, we went to our local store to buy them but there were none, so later she looked on their website and they werent on there either??
so she rang their head office to enquire and was informed that they have been very popular and sold out.
so she then looked on ebay and found numerous pairs, the only problem is that they are going for £40 and still over a day left... now this wouldnt be so bad if they werent only £12 instore

its madness il never understand it, clothes too. To me clothes are just a thing to keep me warm and stop me getting arrested for indecent exposure!

£40 for £12 shoes thats madness!!!

My girl once payed £50 for a bag on ebay which we then came accross in another shop a few days later for £25

I found it uber funny..... She didn't.

lol, I knew they'd be the ones! Nah don't own them, have drooled slightly when I've seen them in mags. Beyonce wore a very similar pair, so everyone went a bit mental over them when that news came out. I already have 5 pairs of glads, I think that is enough for now

aah the good old laws of supply and demand, plus the laws of fools on ebay who dont do their research - see also vw decklid standoffs and headlamp eyebrows

I have no pity, thats what you get for having small lady feet, i cant even look in matalan as they only go up to a size 8 lol. I had the same prob with matalan a few weeks ago, they had a playsuit advertised in there magazine but ive never actually seen it in any shops
