I was actually able to make it to Old Navy yesterday but by the time I got there…there were VERY FEW solid color flip flops left. In fact I could only find some in kids/toddler sizes. I was able to get Little Monkey a black pair that hopefully will fit next summer. I also got him a pair of socks on clearance for 19cents. I have heard of many people going early in the day to their stores and it being swamped with people. Most of them either got some flip flops or that the flips flops were already gone, but it didn’t stop them from spending plenty of other money on clothes. So Old Navy’s marketing ploy did work on many people but not so much on me! I would have loved to get more flip flops. Big Monkey even requested a pair (He has somehow lost his black ones and cannot find them anywhere!). Oh well!
That’s too bad. I thought that might be the case, I didn’t even attempt it. Maybe next time. We should be seeing you guys today.
The $1 flip flops was just to get people in the door…Leading up to Christmas Wal-Mart does things like that in electronics…
They will advertise a $150 BluRay player and people will line up. However, each store will only have two of those cheap BluRay players available. So people sit outside in line all night and what are they going to do? Probably buy the $350 BluRay player…
