Friday we got the news that Payless is filing bankruptcy. We are sad because this was our source for the gym shoes the girls. Between good list prices, special, and coupons the average price for these high quality shoes for $20.
The good news for this year is that we had our first fundraiser, the Zumba Party, for shoes. We raised enough to buy more than the 40 we need for this year. So, we’re going to take advantage of sales and maybe even get 2 years worth of shoes. I believe we’ll be able even have them sent to the Baní (town next to Azua, home of Albert Pujols) store free!
We also need to look for a new source for shoes for the future. Please let me know if you have any solutions!!
Peace,
Ann
Oh Ann after our conversation yesterday I’m shocked to hear they are going under. Or at least reorganization. Maybe they will continue in third world countries like the DR and Nicaragua. Or someone similar will buy them out… :((
