I REALLY ♥ Zappos.com

Okay. I have been in sequestration (except for having my final class sort-of-meeting today for teaching and a last-minute trip to TU Special Collections to review stuff before they close for the weekend) to work on my final paper. But I must break through to write a quick blog today because I just CANNOT believe the amazing service from Zappos.com. As you may know, I love Clarks boots. And they discontinued the style that I like, so when I found out I bought an extra pair of black (I even wear them in Court), a pair in tan, but no dark brown. And then kicked myself when there were no dark brown left to buy. Well, yesterday I am searching the web to see if anyone has any left and Zappos.com (which is where I buy almost all of my shoes) had ONE PAIR LEFT in my size! So I ordered them. Now, if you don't know, Zappos.com offers free shipping AND free return shipping if something doesn't fit or you hate it. But they also upgrade shipping on every order. So I slam plastic and grab that last pair, get my confirmation e-mail that the boots should arrive Monday. But NO! Wait! It gets better! (I know the guys out there are all bored now...sorry!) So I get the "upgrade" e-mail today...mind you, I ordered them yesterday at about 3:00 p.m. Anyway, I barely have time to read the e-mail when UPS is out front with...you guessed it...my boots! Now that's impressive. And I am tough to impress. So, a big thanks to Zappos.com and my recommendation to all of you. Give them a try. They're FABULOUS!
