Your Good Buy Of The Day (Part 1)

<p>With this promotion you do not have to use your Macy’s card.</p>

<p>Macy’s sale is awesome. Got a set of All-Clad pots (made inthe USA), 2 sets of bathroom towels for D’s bath (made in the USA), a plush Turkish robe, and 2 large crystal vases (made in Germany), all with the extra 25% discount. Most of the stuff I got almost never goes on sale. I did not get the bed spread I was looking at becuse the two matching pillow shams were made in China. I will get a 10% Macy’s cash on all of this because D shamed me into signing up for their Thanks For Sharing program. I can apply that towards some new towels for our bath. :)</p>

<p>Help needed from the avid shoppers here: women’s slippers, not open at the heel, lined with something that is not sweat-inducing, and with some arch support. Uggs would be perfect, but the footbed is far too flat. Any suggestions?</p>

<p>Arabrab: Sorel is the brand name and Nakiska is the particular style. </p>

<p>These are shearling lined, but keep my feet warm in winter, comfortable in summer. YMMV. I have a very high arch, so one of the first things I noticed is the wonderful arch support.</p>

<p>They run true to size and may seem a little tight-ish at first. After a few wearings, they do stretch a bit. When I first got them, I swear I didn’t take them off for a month. They have a harder bottom, so you can go outside with them or even run an errand.</p>

<p>They do have a heel on them but I often use them as mules. Either way, best slippers I have EVER owned. I’ve seen these on Zappos and I think they’re $55 if not on sale.</p>

<p>I loved these slippers so much I have since given a pair to my daughter and my sister-in-law. They’re both so hooked on them, they even make room for them when they travel. So do I. Totally worth the space in the luggage :)</p>

<p>Those Sorel Nakiska look ideal, except for one problem - they’re made in China. Unfortunately, Zappos doesn’t often include Country of Origin in their descriptions so I had to check around. Does anyone know of a similar slipper with good arch support that is not made in the PRC? I received a pair of Haflinger slippers last year, and while they are comfortable for lounging they don’t provide enough support for my wrecked feet.
Thanks!</p>

<p>Silpat – these also came up in my looking at Zappos, though they’re on the pricey side:

<p>Arabrab, thank you! Those look perfect since I can use my Rx orthotics with them. You’re right that they’re pricey, but I’ve gotten used to a limited wardrobe (among other things) in order to pay the price for non-PRC quality.</p>

<p>silpat, you might be able to pick up this type of slipper for about $50 less at 6pm, if they have your size.</p>

<p>Is 6pm a store or a time?</p>

<p>Hehe! Have you gone on their site? I recently placed my first order with them (leather shoes under $20 delivered from a brand that I know will fit. Yup, I like to buy at bargain basement pricing whenever possible).</p>

<p>[Your</a> Outlet for Finding Shoes, Clothing, Great Sales, and More | 6pm.com](<a href=“Your | 6pm”>http://www.6pm.com/) It’s a zappos store, isn’t it?</p>

<p>Last I heard it is run by Zappos, but I have not followed if there were changes. I actually learned about them through ebeeee (thank you, ebeeee). Not sure at all, but I believe some things that don’t sell out on Zappos are put on 6pm, but that might not be true.</p>

<p>Just checked the link, kathiep. Yes, 6pm is operated by Zappos.</p>

<p>Don’t know if they have them across the country, but I"m enjoying the good buy of a 8ft fresh frasier fur from Costco for $29.99!!</p>

<p>Yes, abasket, our local Costco sells firs grown in Oregon.</p>

<p>6pm is a Zappos clearance place. I’ve ordered from them, and based on what I got, I think they are selling prior year fashions and Zappos returns that might be missing a few tissues from the packaging. The goods are brand new, unworn.</p>

<p>My son loves 6pm! A great place to pick up last year’s color of name brands like North Face, Columbia, Patagonia, Nike, etc… Can you tell my son likes outdoor’s wear :wink: He waits until the price is really low; he isn’t too picky about the color, more concerned with the price.</p>

<p>I just bought these last week at Sears and am really enjoying the comfort. Not sure if the lip around the back is high enough for your needs, though.

<p>Went to the Macy’s Friends and Family sale. Got a coach clutch for my D, list price $98, got it for $55, (on sale for 25% off, then I got my 25% off). Hope Ms. Picky likes it.</p>

<p>My major score, a calphalon 3qt saute pan. It was a morning sale for 29.99, and then I used my 25% off so it came to 22 and change. I have no idea how much it usually retails for but it’s really really nice, heavy and has a lid.</p>

<p>I also got k cups. They were 11.99 and then I used my 25 off so they were around 8.50, cheaper than I can get at Bed Bath and Beyond, so I was happy.</p>

<p>Spent way too much though!</p>

<p>Love the Macy’s coupon–new Waterford annual ornament at 25% off brightened my day! And I picked up the paperweight that I had been thinking over–on clearance plus the 25% off. I may go back today with DH…</p>

<p>We’ve gotten our tree from Costco the past few years. Can’t beat the price & they’re a nice quality.</p>

<p>Picked up a Norelco men’s electric shaver (including a replacement head) at Costco last night for $70. Went over to Macy’s right after and they had the same one (without the replacement head) on sale from $159 to $99. It would have been $75 after the 25% but still a much better value at Costco.</p>

<p>Well Amazon was kind today. I bought my son a book I thought he’d love and he (who never buys himself very much) comes home from his classes with the book, they had it on sale at his college’s gift shop. I went online to print out return labels at Amazon and they said at one point in the process, “The return is on us” I get the refund and don’t have to return the book which now will be a gift for someone else, maybe a donation.
I am a good customer, but I appreciated it.</p>
