toms...

$465!!!!

I don't want to be rash in my judgement, but...well, actually, I do.

I recently received a letter from my credit card offering me a promotional deal where if I purchase something from Neiman Marcus, they will give me a statement credit for my purchase up to $30.  Anyone who knows me, knows I love taking advantage of these types of deals.  So, I jumped online to Neiman Marcus to see if I could find something worth buying (preferably less than $30 so it would be free), and was astonished at their prices.  I mean, seriously!  Do people really spend that kind of money? It is totally foreign to me.

Anyway, discouraged but not defeated, I quickly jumped to the clearance, and after a little navigating, found a cute little pair of glitter Tom's that were $27.

FREE!

After adding them to my cart and starting the checkout procedure, they tacked on $9 for shipping.  However, I also noticed a spot for a promo code.  So, of course, I quickly googled "Neiman Marcus promo code" and was rewarded with a nice free shipping code.  The total ended up at just over $29, and I was so pleased with myself for getting a free pair of Tom's.

But back to my original intention:  judging people.

Now, don't get me wrong.  If you like to shop at Neiman Marcus, that is just fine.  But what I have concluded from my experience is that most people who shop there must not be very bright.  My evidence?  First offense--paying $465 for a frilly baby dress.  And second?  Well, please read the reviews for these pink glitter Toms and decide for yourselves:
