Yeah, I just went to Walmart and bought a 15 dollar pair. I don't get the hate for Walmart.. Yes, I like buying things at low prices and I am not ashamed to admit it.

I don't get it either! I actually like Wal-Mart. I don't get shoes there because my feet hurt easily. I buy my shoes at different locations sometimes Ross sometimes Academy or Macy's but I usually check the clearance racks!

Anyways at Wal-Mart I like some of their clothes. They're not bad! I get shorts there and t-shirts sometimes. But I mostly go there for groceries. They have decent prices so why not? :p

Right. That part makes sense.

Uh... nope. Big difference there. Wal-Mart shoes are cheap because they are cheap. They fall apart in a couple of months with me and they feel TERRIBLE!

Now Rockports, when I could get them cheap... that's a different matter. There's a shoe store near here that sells Rockports for $12 to $25. Can't beat that. Before I went to strictly zero-drop shoes I got Rockports exclusively because they felt good and held together for years. In fact I still have a pair. I just don't wear them anymore because they're not zero-drop.

But getting good shoes on sale is nowhere near the same thing as getting Wal-Mart shoes cheap. Gonna have to disagree with you there bro.

My shoes last quite a while.. My clothes in general last a while. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

I have to agree with you on this. I've purchased shoes from Walmart twice before, and both times they fell apart. The last pair only lasted a month and a half lol. You get what you pay for. I learned to stick to my Adidas :D.

I have to agree with this too, sorry Jsr1221. I don't like shoes from Wal-Mart but I don't mind buying clearance shoes that are better quality at another store. It does make a big difference. At Macy's I sometimes find shoes that are 50%!

You know what helps too? Having small feet. I wear a size 6 in women's and I find a large variety of shoes in my size because most women are larger than that. Even children's shoes fit me. :p

I've always been Walmart, and they've worked fine for me. If people want to call it cheap, it's their opinion. It's not going to stop me from saving money and buying stuff that fits and feels comfortable. Jesus says come as you are, so I don't think He would care if it's Walmart. Macy's. GoodWill. Or off the streets somewhere.

That's true and I'm sorry if I was rude, I didn't mean to be. I was just saying that I don't like their shoes. I also don't like Target's shoes. I'm kinda picky with shoes because I fall very easily lol. I need shoes that give me support. I'm very clumsy and if I have something uncomfortable, I usually trip. In first grade I tripped and half of my face was bleeding and I lost a baby tooth. I don't know why I'm clumsy, but I am. And in high school I tripped at least one a year in the stairs! So embarrassing! :(

My favorite shoes are Sketchers sandals and Nikes tennis shoes. They're really comfortable.

Also, I love Wal-Mart, nothing against them. Like I said I'm just picky with shoes. But I love everything else from Wal-Mart. I even get jewelry there. I agree with you that I don't understand why people talk so bad about the store. I know the cashiers are rude and the shoppers are sometimes ill dressed, but that's everywhere nowadays, not just Wal-Mart. Plus I go to shop, not to talk to the cashier and look at people's fashion choices. ;)

That awkward moment when you offer someone your favorite food just trying to be nice and they take it.

That awkward moment when... you neglected to move the capo on your acoustic guitar, and so started the worship song a semi-tone down from the electric guitarist. Without anyone else playing to cover your error.

I recall a friend saying that in heaven, we wouldn't need a capo; it would just all work out...

That awkward moment the keyboard guy gives you the key to sing, and for some reason your mind is still in the previous song's key, and you can't seem to find the new key of the new song, so there's just awkwardness on stage cuz people are waiting for you to start the song.

Happened tonight lol

That awkward moment when... some cereals taste much better without milk than with milk (this is particularly true of healthy cereals).

That awkward moment when you're the only one not excited about the ''blood'' moon, because you saw it the previous times, so you just continued to watch the Broncos vs. Lions game lol.

I still eat cereal with milk, but I also eat it without milk. It depends on what cereal haha. #WeirdThingsShineyDoes

I love cereals... I eat them plain, but I like it better with milk... I also eat very fast, so they never have enough time to get soggy... :)

And I love milk... I'm like a calf... I drink milk like water... :)
