I Am So Mad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
I am beginning to really feel discriminated against. I know you are wondering why, so I am going to tell you.

Almost ALL the stores that sells shoes no longer carry any size under a 6.

So what are the ones of us that wear a 5 supposed to do? Go barefoot?

For the second time I went into a store to try and find ladies dress shoes. The lady that ran the dept informed me they didn't carry any fives, but that I could try the children's shoe dept that they carried 5's. Knowing I had already expressed I was looking for a ladies dress shoe, I asked her with lots of wonder in my voice, "Oh, your dept carries ladies high heel shoes in the CHILDREN'S dept?" "Oh, no but they have sandals!!! Where is the red face anger icon when you need it?

So I remember that someone on NFCF told me about a website that you can order shoes and return them at no cost if they don't fit. So I went shopping today and found the very shoes I was looking for. Unfortunately, the little darlings are going to cost me over 200.00!

I need Margie to start me a writing campaign. And all the supporters that can find sympathy for us folks with small feet, who like to where shoes also!

Well I got that off my chest, but goodness this isn't right.

Where is Newman, she ought to know how to handle this unfair situation.

Although most of the better shoes are made overseas.

I think I am going to suggest a boycott of one brand at a time until they start accomodating little feet also.

I mean how would you feel if you couldn't find any shoes to fit your feet and when and if you do, you pay the price!

And I thought I had trouble finding 7's!

That is a terrible plight for sure. Goes to prove that we are evolving into bigger Americans!

I wear 10 1/2. You think you have it bad! Hardly anyone carries that size. At least I don't have to look for narrow or wide. That would make it harder.

ummm NO!

Although when my husband's family was dividing up his parents things, they found a shoe mold for repairing shoes in the shed.

Looked to be made of iron and rather small.
