Gimme Mo, Gimme Wii

561 comments

Blogher ‘08 is right around the corner, and I couldn’t possibly be more excited!  The friends, the parties, the information, the swag, and let’s not forget the best part of all: the bed all to myself.  Ooh boy.  I think that I might get lost in those pillows and not ever want to come out.  Room service anyone?

Of course all of this sleeping alone and shmoozing and networking would not be possible if not for my lovely sponsors.  Not only are they lovely, but they are also generous, and in addition to sending me to Blogher they want to give something to you all as well.  You already know that HP is giving away $250 cash to one Blogher attendee (contest ends tonight!), well my other sponsor MoFuse.com has something  EVERYONE can enter to win.  Anyone ever heard of a little thing called a Wii?  No?  Ok, nevermind.

YES I’m giving away a Wii gaming system, right here friends.  NO I cannot win this myself.  Hmmpf.

MoFuse.com is sponsoring this fantastic prize, and I want you to know all about them.  They are the newest way (and one of the most popular) to mobilize your blog.  Why is mobilizing awesome and important?  If you’ve ever looked at your blog on a mobile device you’ll know why.  Most blogs are a big clunky mess when viewed on your palm or blackberry, and it’s difficult (or impossible) to read them efficiently.  MoFuse turns your blog into a mobile, easy to read version (for free!), so that your readers will want to visit you even while on the go.  You just put a widget on your blog and you’re good to go.  Any time a mobile user stops by they will be able to read your content without any fuss, so the goal is for increased readership in addition to more accessible content.  Plus, MoFuse has a program where you could put ads on your blog if you were into that kind of thing, so really mobilization is just the first step.  Go to MoFuse to check them out, open your free account if you’re as thrilled about them as I am, and keep in mind their awesome sponsorship and generous giveaway for an idea of how much they appreciate all our bloggy business.

Ok, so how can you win the Wii? Well since I’m shopping for Blogher this week, I’m in need of some shoe ideas.  Leave me a comment on this post with your favorite shoe store or brand (and be more creative than just “Zappos” or “Piperlime”, even though of course we all love them!) and you are entered to win. Just a comment and you are good to go.  You can earn one extra entry if you Twitter or post on your blog about this contest, so let me know in the comments if you do so.  Contest runs until the day before I leave for Blogher, Wednesday July 16th.  Winner will be picked at random.  Void where prohibited (see all the rules here).

Good luck, and thanks again to HP and MoFuse.com!

  1. Rhi Said,

    I have GIANT feet - so I’m normall a Nordstrom girl - they have a special ladies shoe event every year JUST FOR ME :)

    I wear a lot of Nine West cause they tend to make my feet look teeny :)

  2. that girl Said,

    I love Uggs — not the boots, I have sandals that are BlogHer-comfy. Got them on the cheap at TJ Maxx.

  3. Michele Said,

    I would love to win this… now for the shoes. In all honesty - I love Payless. They also are online now. I realize it’s totally not very original but 1) I’m hard on shoes, and they need to be cheap ’cause even the expensive ones are worn hard. 2) I’m wide width, and Payless has an excellent variety. It’s quite hard for me to find true wide widths anywhere else for me.

  4. Kate Olson Said,

    Ok, check THIS: http://twitter.com/kolson29/statuses/852380535

    and my favorite shoes EVER are Crocs, there are some pretty cute styles now and definitely BlogHer appropriate. You can get them right from the Crocs website or about a million other places too. Oh, and Birkenstocks are my other faves - I’m SO not a fashionista :-) My feet love me, though!

    So, that’s 2 entries fo’ me, right?

  5. Adrienne Said,

    I love Crocs, but hate paying that much for plastic shoes, so I shop on Ebay. I got a brand new pair of Croc sandals (with tags) in my gigantic size for only $10 plus shipping.

  6. LauraTheMum Said,

    i never go shopping for shoes except at zappos.com, but i suppose my favorite mall place would be somewhere like journeys. however, my FAVE brand, that i can’t find anywhere but online, are campers!

  7. Ashlee - Mama's Nest Said,

    OMG… you know how many Wii’s have slipped through my fingers!!! My favorite shoe sto’ (and one of the best places for deals) is 6pm (http://www.6pm.com/)

    I know you’re probably looking for something dressy but DOOD! you need some nike dunks high top style.

  8. Christina Said,

    You can’t go wrong with a pair of Chucks for comfort and old-school style. Converse are some of my favorites, and let’s face it, at BlogHer, comfy shoes are needed during the day. Save the fancy shoes for the parties.

  9. Adrienne Said,

    Here is my Twitter tweet http://twitter.com/Adriennevh/statuses/852383755

  10. Ashley Said,

    I’m not really a shoe person. I generally wear flip-flops unless it’s snowing. But I got some really cute, not casual ones at Dillards that are great and more stylish than the ones from Old Navy;)

  11. Karoli Said,

    I am a brand-new Sketchers fan. I was completely desperate for shoes to take with me to Nashville and then I found Sketchers. $100 later I was out of the store with 4 pairs of shoes that: a) didn’t hurt my feet; b) had some style; and c) didn’t kill my wallet.

    I’m a big, big fan.

  12. Raquita Said,

    I am such a shoe ho - i like via Spaga, sergio Rossi and rocket dogs.. Hey - I got dreams and I got what I can afford…
    Now Wii must go and drool over shoes..

  13. Susan Reynolds Said,

    Until last year I said I’d never wear crocs. OK so I was wrong. You’re going to be on your feet a lot and crocs even come in itty bitty strappy sandal styles now like this pair I ordered (OK I ordered two) http://susanreynolds.soup.io/post/3652694/Image

  14. Patti Harju Said,

    I would love to win a Wii!
    My favoirte shoes right now are my Chaco sandals. I have one pair I were all the time. They give my arch the support it needs and are so comfy.

  15. followthatdog Said,

    For shoes, if I have time, I always get great bargains at Nordstrom Rack. If I have less time, I shop at Zappos. For shoes that are part of a larger awesome shopping expeience, I like Garnet Hill, great stuff.

    Some of my favorite brands, Camper, Indigo by Clarks, Vans and Faryl Robin.

    May I have the Wii now? Please.

  16. Suzanne Shanks Said,

    When I’m shoe-shopping I scout as many places as I can. Faves (besides Zappos) are ShoeBuy.com, JCPenney.com, Payless.com and Chadwicks.com. As you can see, I don’t have the budget for spendy shoes. When I can I love Etienne Aigner & 9West..

    I don’t have the budget for the Wii either but I really want to get one for my classroom! So of course my middle-schoolers should win!

    Thanks, I’m off to Tweet this. :)

  17. Patti Harju Said,

    Can I edit? I spelled wear wrong!

  18. Patti Harju Said,

    I also tweeted about it.

  19. Jackie Said,

    The best pair of boots I’ve ever purchased were from Aldo!

  20. Glass Half Full Said,

    CROCS CROCS CROCS!!!

    I will post about this soon. Good luck to me!

  21. Kerri Anne Said,

    OK, so if you are ever in Portland I will take you to Imelda’s: http://www.imeldasandlouies.com/ because they are fantastic.

    Also, this Portland shop has an online store: http://www.pedxshoes.com/ as does this shop for comfier varieties: http://www.oddball.com/

  22. Nina Said,

    I’m wearing a pair of Twenty Two shoes to BlogHer. http://www.twentytwoshoes.com/ They’re based out of LA.

    I also tweeted.

  23. Stacey Kopp | Natural Childbirth Said,

    I LOVE my Merrell zip-up mocs. You can wear them without socks with pants or capris or shorts. (and your feet and shoes never get that stinky wet dog smell) They are so comfy, I wear them every day, and even have a black pair for church. I would absolutely LOVE a WII for my birthday. (july 24) It is the big 30! Thanks!

  24. Adventures In Babywearing Said,

    I tweeted! Ok, if cash were like water to you, the Theory collection at Piperlime is droolicious.

    http://www.piperlime.com/browse/categorySearch.do?cid=39415

    But if you want to be more realistic, I think Chinese Laundry is so fun!

  25. World's Greatest Mommy Said,

    I want the wii as a Christmas present for my nephews!

    And my favorite shoes are Isaac Mizrahi’s line for target. I can afford them, and I always get mega compliments!

    I twittered this too!

  26. Kerri Anne Said,

    And: tweeted: http://twitter.com/kerrianne/statuses/852401861

  27. Monkey Giggles Said,

    I would go for a Pedro Garcia. It will make all the heads turn.

  28. Leticia- Tech Savvy Mama Said,

    I tweeted: http://twitter.com/techsavvymama

    As a first time BlogHer attendee, I keep hearing how important comfy shoes are and have a great pair of stylish Aerosoles I’m bringing with!

    See you there!

  29. Riptide Said,

    I like K-Swiss personalized with my colors and name on the side. While I’m customizing my shoes I listen to Shania or Kelly sing about Shoes
    http://listen.grooveshark.com/song/Shoes/3673185

    http://listen.grooveshark.com/song/Shoes/2140656

  30. Elaine Said,

    I’m ridiculously loyal when it comes to shoes. I find a pair I like and wear them until they are full of holes. I know. Really. For the last couple of years (I’m not kidding) I’ve been wearing an awesome pair of borne’s that I cannot link to because, dude, they stopped making them years ago. But they’re cool. Trust me.

    However, they are starting to fall apart so I’ve been eyeballing the keens at REI. Currently having hot flashes over these bad boys: http://www.rei.com/product/732898 as well as enjoying the possibility of these: http://www.rei.com/product/766205 and these: http://www.rei.com/product/747153

    We could be here all day. If I were you, I’d just shimmy on over to REI and demand their best keens.

    OH, and I’ve tweeted this, so am looking forward to a second entry!

  31. Riptide Said,

    OH! and just tweeted http://twitter.com/Riptide_Furse/statuses/852407801

  32. jodifur Said,

    Well, not to point to zappos, but my new favorite brand is bouquetes.

    they are comfy, especially for wide feet like mine, not too expensive, and have a wide variety of style that work for work, play, and even dressy occasions. And I do not work for them

    http://www.zappos.com/n/es/d/722100047/page/1.html

    And, I tweeted-

    http://twitter.com/jodifur

  33. crunchy domestic goddess Said,

    well, i’m a comfort girl and love my crocs and birks, but those aren’t exactly stylish. i just got some sketcher maryjanes (from costco), but they are again rubber shoes and don’t let my feet breathe well (but they are pretty cute). good luck w/ your shoe search! :)

  34. Rachel Said,

    Hi,
    I have a shoe fetish as well. But, all my shoes cost like $80 a pair so they are few and far between. I’ve been drolling over this pair for a few months now. They are the St. Martin wedge on the athleta site.
    http://www.athleta.com/shopping/product/detailmain.jsp?itemID=4152&itemType=PRODUCT&iMainCat=7&iSubCat=338&iProductID=4152

  35. Maggie Said,

    I am totally the LAST person who should be dispensing shoe advice, since the pair I am currently wearing I got on clearance at Target. But I still thought they were cute.

    That’s right, my shoe suggestion is Target…I am a TOTAL loser.

  36. Tiffany Washko Said,

    I suggest the Kenneth Cole Reaction “Pretty Please” Pump…drool.

    http://www.shopping.com/xPO-Kenneth-Cole-Reaction-Kenneth-Cole-Pretty-Please-Pump

    It is on my wishlist.

  37. Tiffany Washko Said,

    I twittered!

  38. followthatdog Said,

    tweeting you my favorite shoe store in SF since you are going to be there for Blogher.

  39. Al Said,

    It is important to make a statement and draw attention to yourself at a conference of this type. I suggest the shoes on this blog- http://shoeblogs.com/2007/07/09/high-tide-heel-part-2/ You could even try to make your own. Kind of formal but ready for fun!

  40. Stimey Said,

    I just got some Keens from Zappos. They’re really comfy.

  41. The Hunter's Wife Said,

    I would have to say Nordstroms.

  42. WhyMommy Said,

    Filene’s, baby! They’ve got cute ones, and oh-so-cheap.

    Not that I wear cheap shoes or anything.

  43. KtVerde Said,

    I LOVE Payless’s designer collections. Not that they would be good for BlogHer, but they are so cute and cheap! The Alice Olivia line is adorable.

    Wii for ME!

  44. Tim Wilson Said,

    My favorite shoes are my New Balance MR768ST Running Shoes. In fact I just finished a blog post about these shoes just before seeing this post asking about my favorite shoes. :)

  45. Carrington Said,

    Oh my gosh! You didn’t tell me about this! You know you want me to win so that you can play at my house! I just checked out http://www.forever21.com, and they have super fashion forward cute shoes for under 30 bucks, amazing!

  46. Vicky H Said,

    I love the brand Born. You can get them at Boston Store, Younkers, ect.. and are some of the most comfortable shoes I’ve ever worn.

    These are two cute ones & extremely comfortable.

  47. mamikaze Said,

    my favorite shoes right now are my “reality check” by Skechers. Zappos has them.

  48. Nic Said,

    Oh this is going to sound so wrong and pretentious, but I LOVE Kate Spade shoes and you can get them at Neiman’s or Nordstrom, but you can also find them on sale.

  49. Cara Mirabella Said,

    I’m not a big shoe girl (gasp!) but I love these shoes http://www.shoes.com/Shopping/ProductDetails.aspx?p=EC1094697&pg=5064825
    Low heal, comfy front, super cute too!

    Oh and I twittered!

  50. bronnie Said,

    I love Fit Flops. A bit expensive for thongs but because they tone my thigh and butt muscles while I walk, they totally rock! They’re super-comfortable too.

  51. Monica @ Paper Bridges Said,

    Is this shoe hunt for comfort and walking ability? I recommend Keen and Teeva. Teeva has a nice and simple sandal out now that you could dress up with a cute skirt and top or go casual for the conference. Let us know what you decide, I love talking shoes.

    monica

  52. Nan Said,

    DSW shoes! Become a rewards member and get points for buying shoes to buy more shoes! How awesome is that. I bought some cool blue shoes with blue ribbon straps. I wear them all the time.
    http://www.dsw.com/dsw_shoes/catalog/index.jsp

  53. workout mommy Said,

    pick me, pick me! The only shoes I own are running shoes, but maybe you need those? :)
    road runner sports…I prefer Asics.

    Thanks!

  54. Nan Said,

    Also twittered about the contest!

  55. Sommer Said,

    Okay besides wanting one of these I think it is soooo cool you’re going to blogher. I’d love t chat with you sometime about blogher, going, getting sponsors, etc.

    Okay, so shop at Mama Om online for some unique threads. I love them.

    I also tweeted ya!

  56. jodi Said,

    Romika Mokassetta sandals (available at Zappos) are the most comfortable sandals I own outside of Crocs. You have to try them to fully appreciate them.

    I also tweeted (@Mindful_Jodi)

  57. Dawn @ My Home Sweet Home Said,

    I know you’ll get lots of brand suggestions, but here’s my recommendation for comfort: if you can bend the shoe in the middle (bend the toes and heel towards each other) then the shoes will probably be comfortable.

  58. MJ Tam Said,

    I’m so glad to hear that you are getting sponsored to Blogher! Woohoo!

    To tell you the truth - the most I’m looking forward to is my hotel room and bed. I’ll party @ slide with you guys and every night after a nice dinner is just me, myself, and I. I’m planning a complete mommy download.

    I can’t wait to hang with you, steph, and amy!

    Now that’s out of the way — hand over my wii! hehe…I want one!

  59. Summer Said,

    Ohhh, drooling over the Wii.

    I could never narrow shoes down, I love them too much. But right now I’m drooling over the Sperry Top-Sider ballet flats. They’re cute and comfortable!

  60. Jo-Lynne (Musings of a Housewife) Said,

    Ooooh, I’m a Nordstrom girl. Love me some Steve Madden or Nine West. Would love to win a Wii! :-)

  61. moosh in indy. Said,

    I have currently taken to practical shoes. The four brands I currently have in rotation are Sofft, Merrell,Keen and Born.
    If you want fancy and comfy, go with Sofft (although they can be old lady looking)
    If you want everyday awesomeness, Merrell.
    Classier comfort, Born is where it’s at.
    And for best shoe I’ve ever owned? (for summer parenting at least) it’s all about the Keen.
    Wanna go super fancy? Cole Haan Air
    $300 and worth every penny.

  62. Adam Said,

    Wearing a size 14 is hard enough, but finding shoes that fit and don’t look horrible? Don’t get me started. I’ve recently discovered that Skechers seems to have revamped their men’s line - they look good, wear well, are priced right, and most imortantly, don’t make my feet look huge like most other brands do. Their customer service is also pretty good, too.

  63. adam Said,

    Forgot to mention that the ladies and kids lines are almost as good as what they offer the men with big feet.

    And remeber: men with big feet….. Have ugly shoes. Until now.

  64. Rebekah Said,

    I’m a skechers girl myself. And they’ve got so many cute “dress” shoes now too. My feet are a “weird fit” but I always know that I can’t go wrong with Skechers. Which is great since that means I can order them online too!

    OH! And I tweeted:

  65. C.C. aka LorelaiCC Said,

    AVON http://www.youravon.com/calmon has been having some really awesome shoes lately. Very cute and not expensive!

  66. Stacy Said,

    My favorite shoe store is Payless most of the time. I have bad feet and it is hard to find cute shoes that I can wear my orthtics in.

    I will blog about this on my blog.

    http://imgladyouasked.wordpress.com

  67. Samantha Said,

    I think you need something to make you stand out in the crowd and give everyone else something to blog about!!

    These fit the bill: http://www.trendhunter.com/trends/make-me-taller-high-chair-heels

  68. A Cowboy's Wife Said,

    My absolute favorite place to shop for shoes or just about anything is QVC…LOL. I love that place.

    I really like Ryka for walking (running) shoes.
    Aerosoles for sandals or “comfort” shoes and Sofft so style;)

    I also tweeted!

    I’m http://twitter.com/acowboyswife.com

  69. WonderSpot Said,

    How funny, I was just talking about how I’d like a Wii, because I totally suck at PS3 because of the controllers and stuff.

    As for shoes? I love ‘em. Typically, I go to Marshalls for shoes - the have fabulous name brands for amazingly cheap prices. I got a pair of amazing Reebok running shoes there, as well as some hot BGBC heels in a merlot color. I think I paid about $30 for each, when they were normally over $80.

    I’ll tweet this, too. http://twitter.com/Wonderspot

  70. Lisa Said,

    Airwalks and vans are some of the best shoes ever.

    Stumbled this post for you too!

  71. Mrs. Flinger Said,

    DUDE, can we still win if we have like NO TASTE WHATSOEVER in the shoe department? As in The Internet even told me so?

    Because if I said NOT to wear these: http://www.target.com/Mossimo-Danae-Peep-Toe-Pumps-Giraffe/dp/B000VXVKM8/qid=1215483071/ref=br_1_4/601-5821903-0676933?ie=UTF8&node=1060512&frombrowse=1&rh=&page=1

    I’m sure everyone else would LOVE THEM. So goahead. ;-)
    And also, MUST add you to my “lick” list. OMG. MUST. XO

  72. Mrs. Flinger Said,

    Hi, I’m the turd that broke the comment formatting. Awesome.

  73. domesticvanilla Said,

    FitFlops. They’re awesome. They’re $50 but you get a gym quality workout whenever you wear them plus they’re super comfy!

  74. Jamie Said,

    Oh! Chinese Laundry and Irregular Choice have the best shoes ever. They are so fun!

  75. Connie Said,

    Well, in my imagination I wear Cinderella Crystal Slippers….in real life it’s nothing but Clark’s of England for me! I love the sandal styles and although I live near Seattle I wear them year round - yes, we wear socks with our sandals up here! :)

    I wear a 10-wide because I’m TALL so finding my size is difficult. I use eBay alerts to tell me whenever a pair my size becomes available. This also saves me about $50 a pair!

    You can’t go wrong with Clark’s they’re so comfy…I promise you’ll feel like Cinderella at the end of the day even if you don’t fit her Crystal shoes!

    Connie
    Queen@princesstimetoys.com aka Still a Princess even at MY Age! :)

  79. Jules Said,

    If money were no object, or comfort either I LOVE this sexy vegan line:

    My latest pair? “Rattle”.
    Love.

  92. Squirrel Queen Said,

    I’ve been wearing my hula girl Rocket Dogs all summer long. They’re my favorite comfy casual pair of the season.

  93. Kathy T. Said,

    I like any shoe that doesn’t have me limping by the end of the day. 8 wides. Ugh. Ol’ cheap Payless carries wides so they make me happy. I need new shoes.

  94. owlhaven Said,

    Payless all the way, baby.

    Mary, mom to many

  95. von Krankipantzen Said,

    Check out John Fluevog Shoes-
    http://www.fluevog.com

    I worked there in the 80’s and his stuff just keeps on getting better. And they are pretty comfy too.

  96. Dawn @ Coming to a Nursery Near You Said,

    Ok, I’m gonna be the old cheapo fart of the bunch and say Dr. Shoals - because they’re great for longgggg days. And they have lots of cute styles (they’re not your mother’s flipflops anymore) LOL

    Have a great time at BlogHer, I’m jealous!

  97. Karen {simply a musing blog} Said,

    I’m a payless girl, although sometimes I splurge and go to Shoe Carnival. My favorite brand has to be Clarks, just because they are so stinkin’ comfy.

    Oh, and I’m totally twittering this right now.

  98. Christine Said,

    I’m LOVING my Yellowbox flip-flops I got for Mother’s Day. I’m thinking SF will be friggin cold during BlogHer, but what price cute shoes? Whatever it takes!

  99. Lori - Queen of Dirty Laundry Said,

    I love 6pm.com for their lower prices, and ShoeTrader.com works for me too. My best shoe buys? Marked down flip-flops at JCrew.com

    What a great giveaway!

  100. Big Mama Said,

    I love these. http://www.colehaan.com/colehaan/catalog/product.jsp?productId=181999&categoryId=309503&productGroup=182000

    Cute and comfortable.

    I blogged about it too for that extra entry.
    Thanks!

  104. Karrine Said,

    I have a problem. I love heals and i never get a chance to wear them so I fully intend on killing my feet at blog her (at least in the evening). I really like strappy sandles with no backs but I wasn’t able to find any.

    But I love these:

    I have also tweeted your contest for you :)

  105. DBN Said,

    Count me in. Apparently my favorite shoes are made by Stride-Rite as that is the shoe manufacturer that gets the largest percentage of my shoe buying budget. If I am have enough left over for myself, I love Nine West as a solid standby, Van Eli makes size 11 (yes! my shoe life IS difficult) and I love their shoes. I dream of one day wearing Jimmy Choo or Christian Louboutin, but I also dream I will lose 20 pounds and a shoe size.

  106. DBN Said,

    I am also putting my entry on twitter.

  107. Rachel Cheney Said,

    I’d have to say my favorite shoes are my Lands End sandals. They are SO COMFORTABLE! I’ve tried all different kinds of sandals, and they all have been uncomfortable. Again, I LOVE my Lands End sandals.

  108. corrin Said,

    I got my Chucks at TARGET and they are comfy!

  109. Kim Said,

    I have to say that I love the shoes I can share with my daughter…….Vans and Skechers! They are fun and stylish and can easily go from my feet to hers and not look silly!

  110. Randi Said,

    I tend to buy my shoes from payless, just because I’m CHEAP and can’t stand to spend tons of money on shoes. I love these for dress occasions: http://www.payless.com/Catalog/ProductDetail.aspx?&TLC=Womens&SLC=WomensStory&BLC=WomensPromoExclusives&Width=Regular&ItemCode=60347&LotNumber=063092&Type=Adult&Popularity=&DescriptiveColor=Exotic&cm_re=S08_p09a_20080708*OnlineExclusives*063092-Exotic(Jatara_Sandal)

    And these look great for casual yet pretty! http://www.payless.com/Catalog/ProductDetail.aspx?&TLC=Womens&SLC=WomensStory&BLC=WomensPromoGladiator&Width=Regular&ItemCode=59978&LotNumber=061669&Type=Adult&Popularity=133&DescriptiveColor=White

  111. Sarah Buki Said,

    I really like Steve Maden brand of shoes if i am looking for something dressy, for walking, active shoes New Balance are my fav.

  112. CrystalGB Said,

    I love Nike athletic shoes. They are so comfortable.

  113. Heather Said,

    New Balance are the best. They last forever and are well worth the extra pennies!

  114. Emilie P Said,

    I just took my first splurge on a pair of Kate Spade “Chris” in black patent leather and I LOVE them. I’ve never owned a pair of designer shoes and it really is amazing the difference in quality. They are so much more comfortable than they look. I just love her style. Thanks for the contest!

  115. Connie Said,

    I am the last person you should take shoe advice from. I am horrible about spending money on myself and I don’t ever really spend much on shoes, although my daughter keeps bugging me to treat myself. I did get a pair of crocs for my birthday and all I can say is WOW. They really are comfortable. Wish me luck on the giveaway. :)

  116. Wisconsin Mommy Said,

    I love Stan’s Footwear in Milwaukee. They personally fit your shoes to your feet and have sizes that you can’t get other places. I haven’t gotten a single blister since they fit me for my new running shoes.

  117. Quincy Said,

    You have to try Born shoes, if you haven’t already. Lurve these.

    http://www.bornshoes.com/view-all.asp

    They are discounted here:
    http://www.sierratradingpost.com/Born.html

  118. Peter Said,

    I have to admit that Payless gets quite a bit of our money - mostly because it’s hard to justify spending tons of money on designer footwear.

    For my part, I like the New Balance sneakers I have now - they’ve held up really well and I got them on sale somewhere when I bought them originally. I think I even managed to get them slightly before they became more of “the shoe” to buy. :)

  119. Stacy Said,

    I love my PUMAs. They are fun and funky.

  120. Christina Said,

  122. brandy w Said,

    well it really depends on if going in heels or tennys. my favorite stores are journeys, they offer mainly tennys like sketchers vans. the shoe dept, they have everything and are affordable, and payless, very affordable.

  123. Crystal Said,

    My favorite place to buy is anywhere with a sale! My favorite sneaker brand is New Balance.

  124. Leeanthro Said,

    I just got some Privo ballet flats (made by Clark’s). They are very comfortable and can be dressed up or down.

    http://www.zappos.com/n/p/dp/28213188/c/84.html

  125. Michelle Said,

    I am probably the wrong person to ask for shoe advice. I own two pairs…one pair of running shoes for on the treadmill and a pair of Land’s End all-weather mocs that I have been wearing for over four years now. I know it isn’t all that exciting, but Land’s End is usually the place I look for shoes. I don’t have any high-fashion needs in my lifestyle.

  126. Candace Said,

    I just bought a new pair of sandals this past weekend. They are Bare Traps. They are so comfy and so cute!

    http://www.shoestation.com/shoestation/dept.asp?s_id=0&dept_id=3058&page=1

    I also like to go to the kids section lol. They are cheaper and fit great. I wear a 7 womens and I think a 6 childs.

  127. Mama Zen Said,

    I love my Converse flip flops!

  128. Bree Said,

    I heart shoes. Nothing makes an outfit like a fab pair of shoes! I’m a huge fan of flats & wedges. A great website with lots of choices is http://www.endless.com!

  129. tuesday Said,

    I love Ryka for walkign shoes, they are great. For everyday shoes I usually just go to DSW, they ahve everything.

  130. CE Said,

    I really like my BORN shoes. They are super comfortable and hand-made. I buy them for my daughter as well.

  131. Karen Said,

    i love aerosoles - cute AND comfy! Also I have a pair of BP ballet flats from Nordstrom that I am loving this summer (again, cute and comfy)…

  132. Heather Said,

    I recently discovered Bass shoes…They have the most comfy sandals and flip flops ever

  133. mattie Said,

    Target….love the mossimo heels they have out now! Check out Delpha and Danae. Have both and love them! Comfortable too…

  134. abbyjess Said,

    I’d LOVE to win. Okay, it’s been mentioned twice but my favorite shoe store is Aldo. Italian leather shoes for non-designer prices. Of course, if your feeling really spend-y, I love Kate Spade. I even got a fabulous pair on the sale racks at Nordstrom’s for $50 dollars. I had to buy an outfit to go with them, but it was TOTALLY worth it.

    Oh and I tweeted this contest too. (ncbartels).

  135. Kristie Said,

    I think the last place I bought shoes was probably Payless for myself and Kohl’s for my daughter. I don’t really have a favorite, just where I find cute shoes at a good price!

  136. Meg Said,

    I love my rocketdogs! They are super comfy. I actually got mine at Ross on sale, but you can get them at most department stores.

  137. Sandy M Said,

    As bad as they look, I am addicted to Birkenstocks. They are so comfortable on my feet.

  138. Kristinia-Loving Heart Mommy Said,

    Well I tend to choose comfort as of lately but I’d love to be sporting a pair of stilletos, especially with all the summer dresses I have but due to being 7 months preggo I’d seriously be head over heels.

    I’d go with anything by UGG, I find they are very comfy, I love my mules and my sandals by them!

  139. kelli Said,

    I love Nordstrom Rack! I buy my Danskos there as well as shoes for the kids.

  140. Sara G Said,

    OH please let me win a wii!!!! I love greats shoes, but can’t afford them. Normally I’ll try Nordstrom Rack to find something on sale or Famous Footwear.

  141. NES Said,

    I cannot get enough of the Cole Haan shoes with the Nike Air soles inside them. Definitely on the pricier side of my shoe collection, but worth every penny, especially when you know you’ll be on your feet a lot.

  142. Samantha Said,

    I love shopping at T.J. Maxx or Marshalls for shoes. My favorite comfy shoes are by Born. They make great sandals, as well as other types of shoes, too! Good luck finding a good pair! I have so much bad luck with shoes…I’ll think they’re comfortable till I wear them out for an hour…then it’s too late to return them.

  143. Rebecca Said,

    I adore converse. The kind that you don’t even have to lace up, but just slip on. mrr.

  144. Melissa Said,

    Oh boy, this is a dangerous question to ask me since i love shoes! First, I do love shopping on Zappos and Piperlime, but locally, I prefer Nordstroms, Banana Republic and DSW. DSW is probably my favorite though because you can find really cute shoes for so much cheaper. Even my husband likes to go since we always find him really nice shoes there!

  145. Sherry Said,

    Børn. I bought a pair the weekend before I went to NYC and walked all over the place in them and had no problems!

    I’ll tweet this!

  146. Melissa G. Said,

    I am a big fan of Nine West and they are in most malls!

  147. Elizabeth Said,

    I have become a big shoe horse since getting a non-lab job and have had great luck at Macy’s sale rack. Doesn’t hurt that Macy’s is 200 yards from my house!

  148. Ami Said,

    I absolutely love Nine West and Sketchers. Generally comfy and you can find them at discount places like Marshall’s, TJ Maxx or DSW. Good luck finding some great shoes!

  149. Tracy Said,

    For my daughter I love the toddler shoes at Little Ruler http://www.littleruler.com/footwear.html
    especially the slip-on Vans.

  150. Susan Said,

    Nine West all the way. When I try to go all practical and work like (conferences that I have to attend that requires wearing them for more then 9 hours a day…) I try to stay away from this place. Never happens. So I end up sitting most of the time because my shoes are hawt - but my feet are killing me! That is the perfect shoe! :D

  151. kellie Said,

    Aldo. I LOVE Aldo.

    I also am blogging this. :)

  152. Stacy F Said,

    I had the most comfortable pair of Kenneth Cole loafers that I literally wore a hole in. That was one of the saddest days ever. Ross & Marshalls are good places to find shoes at a good price!

  153. Karyn Said,

    Right now, my Nike flip flops are the bomb!

  154. Jen Said,

    Heels.com — free overnite shipping, returns. Hot styles so many to choose from - perfect!

  155. Sundi Said,

    Okay, I know I may sound cheap, but I love Target shoes! I wear a size 5-1/2, and they are one of the only affordable places that actually sells shoes in my size! From flip flops to heels, I can always find something cute!

  156. Jule Said,

    I know that they’re not the cutest things around but for the level of comfort that they accord you could to worse than the Clark’s brand of walking shoes.

  157. Shalee Said,

    I’m not a shopper, but I love going to DSW and finding some super cute shoes that are comfortable too.

    I’ve just twittered about it too!

  158. Brenda Said,

    I’m a Target fan too, but only for flip-flops. I grew up in Keds, so when I can find them cheap, I snatch them up. Kohl’s has been good to me.

  159. Hanna DeMaster Said,

    I have a pair of Borne sandals that I just love. I bought them when I was pregnant last summer and they are the ONLY shoe I wear now during the summertime.

  160. amy purple Said,

    You didn’t mention what type of shoes you are looking for, but since it’s summer, i’m going to go with sandals in which case I LOVE anything by Clarks, they are so comfortable! Sometimes you can go to their outlet stores and get buy one, get one 1/2 off. If you are looking for sneakers, I highly suggest Merrells. Good luck with your new shoes!

  161. Robin Said,

    My stylish faves? Cole Hann

    Fun comfort? Privo

    Ugly but feels so good and I can walk a thousand miles? Birkenstocks

    Don’t judge me.

  162. Robin Said,

    (Oooo, I tweeted it too :) )

  163. Jo Said,

    My fave brand for me and the kids is Sketchers. They offer cool gym shoes for the kids, but they also have casual shoes as well. And they are very comfy :)
    jceko77@yahoo.com

  164. CanCan Said,

    I like my Reef flip flops. They are so comfortable with a spongy sole. I have the Grom (the black rubbery ones) and some suede ones…I love them both!

  165. Maggie Smith Said,

    My new favorite shoe store, since having kids, is Robeez. They are so cute and functional! I would love to win this Wii!!!!!

    THANKS!

  166. Kristen M. Said,

    I’m a sandal person. I’ve always loved my Teva sandals but someone just clued me into Chaco sandals and I’m thinking of switching over.

  167. Jenna Said,

    Though I am generally sick of anything Juicy Couture I can’t help but LOVE some of their shoes. Like these Magda Quilted Mary Janes @ Neiman Marcus. I totally love the black ones!

  169. gillian Said,

    I live in South Carolina so summers are unbearable without lots of flip flops and sandles!!! I am a faithful Reef flip flop girl but I have recently tried Olukai and they are super comfortable and a ‘nice looking’ flip flop. For an added bonus OluKai is committed to creating quality products while leaving the smallest footprint possible on the planet.

  170. Melissa Said,

    I am a cheapie, Payless shoes has all the best sandals right now and on sale, and often this time of year, its buy one, get the 2nd half off! I stock up for summers to come!

  171. Trisha Jackson Said,

    I absolutely love my Crocs that I bought at Journeys. I needed a shoe to be multi-functional for me. I can go to the grocery store in them, work in the garden, stroll down Bourbon street while on vacation with them, and even walk the dog. They are the first shoe I put on my feet in the morning.

    I especially like that they don’t make my feet sweat. That’s a constant issue for me.

  172. Marci Said,

    I enjoy getting my shoes from Chaco. Very comfortable and practicle.

  173. Lachelle Said,

    I’m a DSW and Famous Footwear girl - the shoes i love but for much more affordable prices. Not to mention great deals on shipping! I love anything by Steve Madden - fashionable and comfortable.

  174. CPA Mom Said,

    I’d LOVE to win…can I still win if I confess I only buy at Payless??

    I twittered about it! CPAMOM is my twitter ID.

  175. Michelle J Said,

    Easy Spirit shoes! I have wide and sensitive feet. This store has been a heaven sent. They carry very comfy and cushioned shoes that are great for long periods or standing or walking. Not to mention that they come in nice styles.

  176. Carrie H. Said,

    I am a total flat-wearing gal. I can’t stand heels. And I’m cheap, so I usually shop at Payless, I’m afraid. But my most comfortable shoes? My Crocs, my Tevas, and my Merrills. Hmm… I’m appearing very crunchy here. I also like my New Balance sneakers. I’m hopeless!

  177. Jenny Said,

    I love Crocs, and they aren’t just clunky and frumpy anymore! Check out crocs.com to see a bunch of cute designs–some even have heels! It’s a good option for when you have to look nice, but also need comfort. There’s nothing worse than going on a fun trip and not being able to concentrate because your feet are killing you! the_other_alice_(at)yahoo.com

  178. Lori Said,

    I have got some great deals from Spiegel really cute shoes. Also famous footwear online.

  179. Danielle K Said,

    The shoes with the red soles - Christian Louboutin! All the “cool” girls on the block wear them - like Oprah. Of course, she can afford them….I think I’ll just paint the bottom of my Cole Hanns ….

  180. Lisa Said,

    Definitely Crocs! Love ‘em, love ‘em, love ‘em! They were cooler and more comfortable than my tennis shoes when we went to a big music festival where all you do is walk. The other great thing is that your feet don’t stink when you wear them, and if they get dirty, just throw them in the sink and wash ‘em up. I’m going to post about your generous give-away right now.

  181. Gina Stratos Said,

    For Comfort? Fit Flops

  183. Heather Racer Said,

    I am a teacher which means I am on my feet all day. So, I love Danskos. They are the only shoes I can wear all day and not have my feet hurt by the time the kids leave my room.

  184. barefootgypsy Said,

    I hate shoes! I do have a cute pair of brown & a pair of black Payless canvas wedges that are comfy. I get tons of compliments on them. go BOGO!

    shan51978@yahoo.com

  187. Katie Said,

    I have wide feet and am on a budget so I usually go with Sketchers (especially when on sale) because they tend to fit my feet the best. Thanks.

  188. rasa Said,

    Mohop shoes would never get old because you can always customize them. I really want to get some for myself.

  189. Colleen Said,

    I love Lands End for casual shoes. They’re stylish, comfy, good quality and affordable. For summer I like their sport sandals and their wedge beach slides. I have both. I Tweeted this too at http://twitter.com/mommiedaze.

  190. Belinda P Said,

    I have a few brands that I love. My favorite running shoes are new balance and I aslo like shopping at payless shoes and my favoritebrand baby/toddler shoes are robeez. Thanks for the giveaway I would love to win the Wii for my boys .

  191. Beth/Mom2TwoVikings Said,

    Don’t wear shoes unless I have to - and when I do it’s tennies or Tevas. I get all my Tevas from REI.com!

  192. shelli Said,

    For summer, I currently have 2 pairs of shoes - my Keens (waterproof AND stylin’ AND comfy, to boot!)

    And my “Naot” version of birkenstocks.

    As far as twitter, I’m saderman, and will happily post away!

  193. Christina W. Said,

    I dig on famousfootwear.com. Free shipping, whole family, great sales on brand name shoes, and you can shop by style, price, size, color, brand and heel-height. (I love not having to wade through pages and pages just to find the three or four pairs that I’m even interested in, ya know?)
    If you’re looking for a cute, strappy casual-dress sandal, I suggest the Nickels Women’s Trainer; (think low-wedge.) It’s on sale for $29.99, and comes in Tangerine, Black, Bone and Spring Green.

    Oh, and if I win, my whole family will love you “for-ev-ver”! (Squints from The Sandlot - you know that one, right?)

  194. Spoodles Said,

    Not to be too obvious, but I like crocs. Ugly fun.

  195. Kimberly V. Said,

    Truthfully my favorite thing to wear on my feet is - NOTHING! I grew up in the country and I hated wearing shoes. Even in the winter I would walk to the mailbox and back in bare feet (yeah, I’m nuts!). If I must wear something then just a nice worn pair of socks is fine with me.

    I guess I’m missing the “shoe gene” that some women have. I’m not big on shoes. I own a pair of worn sneakers and I’m happy as a clam. I have a pair of pumps that I wear if I have to go to a funeral or fancy occasion.

    My favorite place to shop for shoes for my family is Payless. I have two growing kids and no sooner do you buy a pair of shoes they outgrow it a week later (ok, not THAT fast but you get the idea). Once they stop growing then we’ll invest in more “high end” quality shoes.

    Thanks for the awesome prize give away!

    I can’t get out of DSW without a new pair of shoes. I’m still mourning the demise of my favorite mary janes with a heel - I can’t find anything exactly like them!

  198. Heather Said,

    I LOVE my tevas and wear them almost every day.

  199. Rebecca Said,

    My new rave is FitFlops! You can get them off of Bath and Body Works or at Lady Footlocker. They are supposed to tone your legs as you wear them and relieve back pain. Just great comfort. I do have some pain and these shoes have been the best thing!! And my calves and legs hurt the first week as if I were doing lunges!

  200. MP Said,

    I LOVE Croc Flip Flops. They are so comfortable and light. They don’t hurt in between your toes and they come in awesome colors!

    I’ve already twittered, so count me for 2!

  201. Annette Said,

    Well, I’m cheap, LOL, so I tend to shop at Payless.com and then pick them up (free shipping!) at the store. Thanks for entering me.

  202. Loreen Said,

    birkenstocks & danskos are my favorite brands

  203. Christian Bruce Said,

    Well I have some ideas for you. A few places I love to shop for cute, hip, shoes are http://www.gojane.com and http://www.wetseal.com Then of course I love Steve Madden shoes but just can’t afford them these days. I usually buy my shoes from http://www.gojane.com or target because I can get tons of cute shoes for cheap and still be in style. Seriously, no matter what shoe you are looking for you can probably find it at gojane for 20.00 or less.

  204. Lori Said,

    Nine West & Ann Taylor

  205. JamiInMiami Said,

    For long days and walking: I love Clarks shoes. They are comfortable & not clunky looking. http://www.clarkshoes.us
    Now when I’m shopping for dressy shoes, I always go for Cole Haan (dressy, sporty, whatever…THEY HAVE IT). These are the best shoes EVER. http://www.colehaan.com & their customer service in-store & online ROCKS.

  206. shannon w. Said,

    Nordstroms has a fabulous department, but I have to say my favorite shoes are by mephisto, they are soooo comfy.

    http://surelyyounest.blogspot.com/2008/04/eco-friendly-shoes-shopping.html

  210. Joy Said,

    Honestly, love shopping for shoes at Ross. You can find designer shoes really cheap. And the hunt for them is half the fun. If I don’t have time to hunt, then I would hit Nordstrom because they have some fabulous comfortable yet trendy shoes.

  211. Molly B. Said,

    I have to admit that I shop for my shoes at Kohls. A little embarrassing, but they are really really cheap and have some very cute shoes!

  212. desi Said,

    I love Merrell, they are so comfortable & I thought I’d never say it, but for less formal, walk a lot shoes - Crocs!

  213. Staci J. Said,

    I don’t like wearing shoes because I’d much rather wear sandals. I love Chacos. They are my favorite, favorite ever. You can find them at tons and tons of different stores.

  214. Emily Said,

    I’m loving Palladium shoes these days. And Wiis.

    I love Capri Crocs….they are the Best flip flops. They are so comfortable and durable. You can just wash them off when you get home from the beach. I originally bought them for our Disney trip, but I love them. I even talked my friend into buying a pair for her vacation :).

  216. Allison Said,

    I have really large feet - a women’s size 12, so I love anywhere that embraces the fact that not everyone wears a 7! I like nordstrom.com and my favorite pair right now is actually a pair of Naturalizer slides.

    Nice giveaway!

  217. Allison Said,

    I twittered, too!

  218. April (That Crazy Mom) Said,

    I’m so jealous, watching all of you ladies Tweeting about making plans for BlogHer…shopping, booking hotel rooms, arranging Tweet-ups. I wanna gooooooo!!

    Anyway, I have two different places that I love to shop from. They’re both shopping directories as opposed to just a store.

    One of them is SheFinds.com. They find some of the BEST deals.

    The other one is an invitation-only mailing list for various boutiques. Its at RueLaLa.com and if you want to check it out, let me know and I can send you an invite.

    Oh, and I will definitely Tweet this.

  219. Ann Said,

    I love to wear flip-flops when it’s warm (which it is at the moment), I love the Nike flip-flops, Cole Haan, just any really. They are comfortable and not too expensive!
    Thanks for the chance to win a WII, my kids would go bananas if I would actually win this!
    Have fun with BlogHer.

  220. Morgan M. Said,

    I think it is great you are sharing about the importance of blog mobility - my husband and I cant stand badly or non-formatted sites when we use his moto-q.

    Anyways I suggest this site for shoes:
    barefeetshoes.com
    has a lot of selection and reasonable prices for in season looks

  221. Joan Said,

    My favorite shoes to feel pretty in are CARLOS by Carlos Santana. The styles are contemporary and sexy. My favorite shoes for work are Vaneli. They are beautifully made and the styles are so classic that they never look dated. For comfort, no one can touch Born. They are a dream to walk in.

  222. Cheryl Free Said,

    I love pr!vo by Clarks :) *Thanks* for the giveaway!

  223. JenO Said,

    I love my Merrell jungle mocs. Comfy and supportive, yet dressy enough for church and work. :)

  224. Reiza Said,

    Volatile shoes. They have awesome platform sneakers and sandals, which is a must when you’re short. They’re very fun and funky. I LOVE their shoes and their prices can’t be beat. I buy directly from their website: http://www.volatileusa.com/

  225. Ann Said,

    My daughter loves Umi…whenever I send her to put on her shoes, those are the ones she picks out. They cost more, but we’ve definitely got it out of them! As for me, I like my Boden sandals right now, but I haven’t been able to beat my Dansko shoes for comfort on long days on my feet.
    Thanks for such a FUN giveaway!!!

  226. Jennifer Thompson Said,

    I love ALDO. I got a pair of sandals there recently that are soo comfortable, but still look good! I’ve gotten a ton of compliments on them. I wear them everyday, and they are holding up great.

  227. Milk Mama Said,

    I’m always broke, so… Payless. lol.

  228. Sarah Said,

    I personally wear crocs about 80% of the time. So comfy and cute. For when I need a bit more style, the first place I look is Kohl’s. Big shoe dept., sales all the time and a good selection. Plus they always send me coupons in the mail and I am a coupon whore!

  229. Amy in Ohio Said,

    Hands down my favorite shoes are my Keds - new pairs each year. They dress up and down and are so comfy.

    And I tweeted too:

  230. Sky Said,

    I’m a crocs girl. Seriously, there are so many cute styles of crocs. My favorite style that I wear almost every day is the Adara, in chocolate. The even have a high heel…and I can’t wait to get my hands on that! It’s called Cyprus. Too cute!

  231. Amy L Said,

    I like Easy Spirit shoes, and I like to shop for shoes at DSW (Designer Shoe Warehouse)

  232. Kari A. Said,

    Well, I hate to reiterate some of the previous posters comments but I have always worn Nine West because their styles have always been up to date yet not too trendy and they are so comfortable. I am also a former PE teacher and swear by Adidas and Puma’s.

  233. Tela Said,

    Are you looking for comfort? Or style?

    The comf-iest shoes in the whole wide world are Dankos–they are like walking on fluffy kittens. But not crazy stylish.

    For style, I like Nine West–because they carry sizes that go high enough to fit my ginormous feet.

  234. ilinap Said,

    Go for Yellowbox shoes. Zappos has them for sure. They are hot, stylish, comfortable, and reasonably priced to boot (and I don’t mean that in a Lucky magazine definition of reasonably priced.). Enjoy!

    I twittered this too. You can follow me and see at ilinap.

  235. Jonda Said,

    I love my skechers! They have cute brown and black flats with a rubber sole that are really good for convention walking. No sore feet! Plus, you can find them practically anywhere.

  236. Matt Said,

    PUMA, and any store that carries PUMA shoes. I have been wearing PUMA shoes for many years now and ALL my shoes are PUMA from my work shoes, to my dress shoes, to my trainers, my beach shoes, to my casuals. PUMA. Nuff said!

  237. chris Said,

    love shopping at DSW!! too many styles too choose from- I love shoes!!!

  238. Kara Said,

    CROCS are the most comfortable walking shoe EVER. I do admit they are hideous, but who cares if they are comfortable- Gotta get some and try them:)

  239. Dianne Said,

    For comfort and all-day wear? Tevas, Dansko, or Crocs. Although Crocs probably top the list. Plus with all the cool little charms and decor, you can snazz ‘em up.

    I Twittered as well and would LOVE to win a WII. :D

  240. Mary @ Adventures in Mommyland Said,

    I love old navy flip flops, dsw shoe wearhouse, and target for shoes. Great giveaway, thanks!

  241. Cheryl W Said,

    My favorite shoe store is in my local mall, called Bakers. They have such great shoes! Thanks!

  242. Jennifer, Snapshot Said,

    Thank you MoFuse. My kids would love this. The site looks cool, too.

    Well, I love Zappos, but they certainly aren’t the cheapest. I always compare shoes.com as well, which is usually cheaper, if you can stand to wait for a week or more instead of overnight.

    Also, they are on ebates, so I get a kickback.

  243. Mary @ Adventures in Mommyland Said,

    Blogged ya:

    Thanks again!

  244. carrie-the gremlin wrangler Said,

    I am very passionate about Dr. Scholl’s. I have terrible feet and my toenails turn black w/ bruises if I wear the wrong shoes. Usually anything w/ a back will do it. I found these after I had my fourth child and it’s the only thing I wear to work where I’m on my feet.

    here is a pic of them:
    my shoes

  245. carrie-the gremlin wrangler Said,

    I also twittered about this! Enter me again Please!! We would LOVE this!! Yay!

  246. Michelle T Said,

    How about these…http://cydwoq.com/index.html
    Cydwoqs. These are totally unique shoes.

  247. witchypoo Said,

    I have Sasquatch feet. Payless has some things that actually fit me. Most of the time I wear flip flops. Sad, but true.

  248. Lori Said,

    I love my Maine Isle Flip Flops from LLBean. I have lobster ones, but there are all kinds of cool designs. For under 20 dollars you just can’t go wrong. I wear them all summer long!

  249. velocibadgergirl Said,

    Target has cute shoes, but I have found my best shoes at Marshall’s and TJMaxx, so that’s my vote! :D

  250. Heather Beckstrom Said,

    I love my Keens! They are great for everything from walks to whitewater rafting.

  251. Katie Said,

    Okay, for beautiful I like Sugar’s May Flowers in blue (drool). Of course with all the walking around at BlogHer you can’t go wrong with some sensible Birkenstocks.

  252. Sarah Said,

    I HEART my Adidas runners. And need a new pair. I’m checking out ebay. :-)

  253. shannon Said,

    my latest favorites are salt water sandals. they come in so cute colors and are comfy and cheap!

  254. Ali M Said,

    Chaco sandals are the only things my 9 month pregnant feet feel alright in…

  255. erin Said,

    Two words: STEVE MADDEN. I own so many Steve Madden shoes, and I absolutely love all of them. The best thing about Steve Madden is that you can go anywhere from comfy to classy, as he makes a huge range of flats and heels. And they’re all stylish and oh so cute!

  256. Shilo Beedy Said,

    I would have to say I love Sketchers! I’m not much of a shoe person but they seem to very comfortable. I love that the sneakers look cute and not bulky.

  257. Victoria P Said,

    DSW! They recently opened their online store, a welcome complement to their brick and mortar stores.

  258. Jenni Said,

    Its hard to pass up a good pair of flip flops. I also love my Rocket Dogs.

  259. Christine - @YoungMommy Said,

    I just sent out a tweet. Did you see it?

  260. Kristine Said,

    Okay, call me old fashioned, but I’m still loyal to good ole’ Born. I buy them on ebay. Our family is giving ourselves a Wii for Christmas, so it would be SOOOOO great if I won! Thanks!

  261. Ashley Said,

    A Wii!!!! How cool are you!

    Now if only you could buy a pair of shoes from every suggestion on here. 257 pairs. sigh.

    Oh, and I’m a good old fashioned Payless shopper! Sorry I have no better advice for you! :o(

  263. Alli ~Mrs. Fussypants Said,

    I love Target! :) I’m a frugal gal!

  264. Kristinia-Loving Heart Mommy Said,

    We twitted about it: http://www.twitter.com/kristinialeanna

    Another comfy pair of shoes I wear almost daily are my Nike Shox Turbo’s, very comfy!

  265. baby blankets Said,

    Gotta go w/ the Fit Flops. If I can tone my rear while shopping at the grocery…I’m good to go!

  266. Melanie Diehl Said,

    I love to shoe shop and I love bargains. I hit all the area TJ Maxx ,Ross and Marshalls when I am out. Online, I love Gotham City Online which I found on eBay. They have great designer footwear at great prices through auctuions or buy it now. A lot of the auctions start at .99! A lot of the buy it now shoes are free shipping.They also accept returns which is rare for auction sites. The best thing about them is that they donate a portion of all sales to charity. Makes it easier to splurge when you know that you are supporting a charity! Great giveaway…thanks to you and your sponsors.

  267. Susan Said,

    I bought a red pair at old navy-okay not the best for comfort but they look cute! PAYLESS is my store of choice!

  268. whitney Said,

    I saw the cutest pair of shoes at BCBG a few months back and have been obsessed with their shoes ever since. Not cheap (or comfortable!) but oh-so-fashionable :-)
    Have fun at BlogHer!

  269. Susan Said,

    I tweeted too for you!

  270. Emily Said,

    I’m a keen girl all the way. The style is Pacifica and I like the blue ones. FAVES with capri pants. I get them at REI.

  271. Krista Said,

    Payless Shoes are my friend. Cheap and they actually usually have one or two pair in my size.
    Then again, endless.com is looking pretty good on the high end!
