Fun fact- I was going to make this a 3 or 4 star review for two reasons. One there are no carts or…read morebags to carry anything you wanted to purchase. That seemed so inconvenient to me because i usually buy a LOT of pairs of shoes when i do go shoe shopping here. But I must say, the staff were more than happy to assist me with my pairs. I can remember Nates name and there was a young lady with a beautiful name that started with an A, that I can't remember. They made my shopping experience five star. At the register, I was a bit of a pain trying to figure out the sale amounts and ALL of the staff, to include the manager on duty were more than patient, helpful and kind. The buy one get one 50% off sale made me able to get six pairs of really nice footwear for what I would normally pay for one pair. It was a lovely experience and not for nothing, some footwear brands actually still make shoes in real quality leather. I'm old school. Pleather is cute and environmentally conscious but it does hold up. At any rate - happy shopping experience indeed and much needed.

Periodically, reduced racks are discounted an additional 40%. Today was my lucky day. A sale that…read morewas slated to end December 3rd is extended five days. Like most discounters, you have to sort through what's there. If they have your size and color, great. If not, oh well. With their no return policy on mark-downs, be sure of your purchase. My friend had to forego a lovely dolman sleeve sweater, a bargain at $6 .... But not with the hole she detected when she tried it on. I spent $49 for a shopping bag-full of clothing and hair styling products I normally purchase at full price. If you're on a budget, flexible with what you'd buy for those on your gift list, head down to 'The Rack' before December 8th. You never know what'll you'll find.

OH! WALKING SANDALS!…read more No, not walking sneakers, they actually had cute sandals for walking. What? I just assumed that they would have some cute sneakers along with those hideously ugly walking sneakers that first appeared almost twenty years ago. They actually had some cute and colorful leather sandals and some non-leather sandals and shoes. Unfortunately there was only one attendant in this small store and he was assisting customers so I did not have an opportunity to try on the shoes or ask questions. No problem! I'll just have to check in next time I am in the mall. They are currently having a sale on their sandals so there is no time like the present to check them out!

Now the cons: Everything I was looking for was literally price $10-$15 more than other competitive companies. I looked up the same shoes at academy, famous, and rack room and the price was $10-15 less per shoe with the competitors. When I totaled it all up I could have bought another pair of shoes for the excessive amount I was paying. Again, great variety but overpriced.

Believe it or not - but I was born 100% female…read more I only mention it here . . . now . . because it has been called into question before because . . . well . . . because . . . there's just no easy way to say this - so here it goes: I HATE SHOPPING! I hate it with a red hot passion. I know. I know. My chick card should be revoked. But its all just too much. The undressing and re-dressing. The people standing too close to me. The random children wandering up to me and 'playing' with my purse. The finding something I love - only to discover they don't have it the color or size I want. Having said all that - I'm a simple girl with simple tastes. And I needed some new shoes. My 'go to' shoes are black flats - specifically Mary Jane style black flats. In the past 20 years - I've probably owned at least 18 pairs. My current pair had been looking pretty crappy for quite some time - and were clearly on their last legs - but yesterday - while at my contract gig - the left one started making embarrassing little 'farting' noises with every step I took. Insert blush. So now that time was of the essence - I went online and selected several pairs of shoes only to discover they didn't have them in size I needed. So I chose any size available - just to generate a 'shopping cart' - then I printed said 'shopping cart' and hot-footed it over to the Famous Footwear Dallas Hwy location. It's spring break for a lot of the kids - so the place was pretty crowded. There was one young lady, Tiffany, working both the floor and the cash register. Tiffany took one look at my printed list and positively beamed at me. After that she was a site to behold - she was running around trying to find all 6 pairs of shoes on my list, while taking care of 6 different customers - yes 6 - I was there for a while and had nothing better to do but keep track. Three of the shoes I wanted were not in stock and she actually took the initiative to bring over 3 different comparable shoes for me to inspect. I know I'm gushing - but this was just such a stellar example of customer service! Not sure why she was the only person working - but she handled the situation like a true champ. She was cute, charming, funny, energetic, patient, determined - and a whole host of other adjectives I'm too tired to type. Not sure if you'll ever see this review - but if so - keep up the good work, Tiffany! You're awesome!
