I did something I shouldn't have

shopaholic posted these faux suede shoes from target yesterday. 


Isaac Mizrahi for TargetŪ Teal Gabi Peep Toe Pumps


 Well, last night I couldn't go to sleep thinking about them (I know there are more important things to lose sleep over, but you understand)  Anyway, I got up about midnight last night and ordered them.  There were just $31 and I thought I might like them a little better than the nordies blue shoes I was looking at.  Well, I am having buyers remorse for two reasons 1) I broke my shopping ban 2)  I just realized I have a pair almost just like them


Should I return them when they come?  I have been reading Target's return policy and I can't make heads or tails of it. Thanks.

You have a shopping problem!  Those shoes are too much alike.  Return them if you can.

Return them!  I like the ones you already have better anyway, plus they're way way to similar.

whoa Rocky, we must have been posting at the same time and we posted almost the exact same thing!


Except you spelled "too" the right way and I didn't

Meow, I am so sorry I made you break your ban.  Send them back.  They are way too much like the ones you have. 


courtney1982, you could be a little more tactful in your responses.  I think most all of us on here have a shopping problem (a problem we enjoy).

I just called Target and spoke to the nicest customer service representative.  He told me that they had already entered the shipping process, but he filled out a cancellation request and sent it to them.  He said he couldn't guarantee they wouldn't ship, but to refuse the order if they did.  He said if I wasn't home to refuse the order to just call them back and they would take care of it.  Whew!!!  I always seem to do this at this time of year.  I get so antsy for the new season and give in to whims (thankfully not really expensive ones) and then have to return or cancel.  From this point forward, I must be strong!!!


shopaholic, you have nothing to apologize for--you can't help it that I couldn't control myself.  I am happy you thought of me and posted those shoes.

I really hope you were joking...that was really uncalled for.

Meow, you make me giggle!  I actually started to reply to the post shopaholic made about those shoes to say that they were awfully similar to your gorgeous gianni bini teal peep toes.  Now I wish I had--it might have saved you some trouble, hehe.

I know, but at least she isn't buying ugly shoes - then we would definitely have to stage an intervention

I like Jah's suggestion...I think an eggplant would look really good on that shoe

I didn't really like the shoes in the eggplant color when I saw them IRL. they looked a lil cheap in my opinion.

I went to Target today about three hours away from me.  I saw the eggplant color and they were gorgeous, but I already have eggplant shoes.  At least I remembered I had them


Can you believe I did not buy one thing at Target?
