crocs are $8.92 at BigW

BigW truly does sell for less.

Yesterday I purchased myself a pair of crocs.  But not just any crocs...FAKE crocs for $8.92.

These babies are straight out of China, 100% real fake crocs.  The story goes that for the past 6 months or so I have had in the back of my mind to purchase a pair of Crocs.  Lately I've been idly looking on ebay for a pair, because to buy them retail in Australia is just too expensive.  So yesterday we went to BigW to get baby wipes and to pay a quick visit to their resident cockatoo "Nelson".  As I approached the baby supplies section of the store I was confronted by a giant stand of CROCS!  Fake, $8.92 Crocs...but still crocs-by-any-other-name.

So I carefully examined the $8.92 crocs, smelling, bending, touching, fully scoping them out.  Then I went to the shoe store, and did the same with the genuine Crocs (retailing at $49.95).

I came to the conclusion that I could save myself $41.03.



Real crocs...


Mine are all dusty because I wore them to the off-leash-dog-park this morning.  We went to the fun o-l-d-p on Cavendish Rd, rather than the one close to our house.  There's always heaps of interesting people and dogs at the Cav Rd one.  Motch had the best run around, a burly little beagle was chasing him all over the place, and poor Muppy really wanted to join in, he was whining and grumbling, but ultimately he was too chicken to join in.

Motch spent the entire afternoon lying down on his mat recovering from his hour of exertion.

They are funy I have to say but the y are comfortable. They are crocs foot funky when you wear them but you get used to them and since they are very very low priced category crocs in so you don't have to worried about croc s knockoffs which can't possibly be much cheaper than the real thing. I thin today though the man crocs shoes are currently less popular than the womens..
