Shoes...check!

Yeah, so I had a $200 credit at Demetrios in Troy. It all started when I made a $200 deposit on a dress that I thought was "the one" a year ago. They told me then if I found a dress somewhere else, the deposit was non-refundable, but I could use it on accessories in the store. Well, I decided to make the deposit and then found my dress a few months later somewhere else. So after a year I thought it was time to venture BACK out to Troy and try to use my deposit on something I need for the wedding. My mom and I headed there Saturday and I discovered that it is REALLY hard to get accessories for your dress..when you don't have your dress with you! Plus, when I was looking at the shoes I couldn't remember how high of a heel I Do Too told me to get with my dress, was it a 1 &1/4 inch, 2 &1/4 inch or a 2 & 3/4 inch heel? So I called I Do Too from inside of Demetrios and they looked it up and told me to go with a heel around 2 inches. So I narrowed it down to a pair with a 2 &1/4 inch heel that was the most comfortable to wear for 10 hours or so. Plus, who is going to see my shoes anyway, right? The shoes ended up being $150 with a $20 extra fee to dye them a light ivory color. So, there went my deposit! I had $30 left to buy a garter and I had spent it all. I still can't believe how everything bridal is SO OVERPRICED!
