These are my "Thank you, Oprah" boots



Not too long ago, Oprah offered a sweet deal to viewers of her show. Although I'm not a regular viewer (and we only get one channel yet never watch it), I decided to take advantage of her offer.

Heck, if she wants me to have snow boots for fifty percent off, I'm all for it. As a poor college student, I'm all about discounts.

So, on October 30, Tyler took me to Payless Shoes, where I waited in line for an hour and a half to buy snow boots for half off.

But get this. I think that there must have been some additional promotion--because along with the 50% discount, the cashier took off an additional $10. (Or maybe it was all a part of the Oprah deal; I'm not sure.)

At any rate, my new boots that were originally $40 only cost me $14.

And they are so warm, and so comfortable.

Thank you, Oprah!

(And thank you, Amber for posting about this deal on FB.)

Oprah may get her name in the post, but I'm glad I could be there with you. Well, in and out of the store occasionally, yes, but with essentially with you.

Hey, good deal! Nice boots! I also like your new background and especially your new title. Very creative.
