Happy Deal of the Day


Every year around my birthday I get a coupon for 25% off any total purchase at my local Goodwill retailer. Call it "drug;" call it "therapy," but shopping makes me feel good. It relaxes me, which, if you know me, doesn't happen easily or often.

Here was the deal of the day, or of the decade, I should say. I got these Dr. Martens, with my discount, for $11.25. They are brand new, never been worn, pristine red leather 12-inch high in my very own size. Today they are listed on www.Zappos.com on sale 10% off for $111.56, down from their regular price of $123.95. But hey - Zappos does give free shipping.
