I hate shopping, too.
I have four children, and try to keep my shoe store visits down to 3 a year.
I have one adult child, and try to keep THEIR shoe store visits down to 3 a MONTH!.........
Heeheehee
Me too! Other than activity-specific footwear like dance shoes or snowboard boots, I think I own: 2 pairs of sandals, two pairs of combat-style boots, one pair of sneakers, two pairs of winter boots (a must in my area), a pair of slip-on vans, and a pair of fluffy kitty slippers. I only buy new shoes when my old ones wear out, and I usually buy more or less the exact same thing as the old ones - I wore three pairs of the same brand and style of sneakers from seventh grade up through my freshman year of college, until my roommate offered me the pick of some shoes and boots she was gonna give to charity.
This would have been great for me when I was a kid.
I now have size 13 EEEEEE (Yes, 6 E!) feet, buying shoes was always a night mare, and still is.
