On the Internet, at rock bottom prices! If you’re female, I hear Unique Boutique is Roswell is the way to go. Paying retail/storefront shopping is so 2007. This is the new economy!

Any clearance rack that has high end shoes for low end prices…DSW, TJ Maxx…the thrill is in the bargain hunt.

Mall of Georgia Nordstrom’s — they actually wait on you, bring you all the shoes you’ve indicated a liking for as well as boxes and boxes of other shoes that are similar. Old fashioned shoe store service with a pianist playing nearby on the weekends make shopping here a delight.

Mitzi’s Shoe Box in VaHi!!!! A few years ago I spent a bonus check there and have never felt a “shoe/boot high” quite like that. Awesome. I love the boutique Mitzi & Ramano too!

If you’re in Atlanta and have internet service, ZAPPO’S has good deals and good selection, free shipping also. Of course you can also search/ order from ZAPPO’S from anywhere but that’s not what this survey is about. Atlanta is the location we’re supposed to reference.

Big Peach Running has the best customer servie and fit process for running shoes! They are good folks who care about getting it right and they have a strong commitment to the community by giving a discount if you turn in a pair of shoes which they then donate to the homeless.

Took my 35 year old daughter to Off Broadway Shoes for the first time last week. Three aisles and she was dizzy – “shoe overload”, she said! Great shoes, great selection, really great prices!

Anywhere that sells Kenneth Cole and Cole Haan shoes. AND I know this is an Atlanta survey, but Zappos.com is the best thing since sliced bread.
