Oh, well.
In the footgear department, I recently ordered "gardeners' wellies" from Gardeners Supply. They were on sale and I really needed something I can just slip on to keep my feet dry. Did I already post about this? Sorry if I did but anyway.
They arrived. They are the "correct size" but in fact are about a whole size too small. I am going to have to return them. I usually wear a 7 1/2 or 8 -- so with these I figured it would be safe to order an 8. I mean, wellies, come on, right? But, they fit like a 7 would.
*sigh* I was so looking forward to having them, too! I did discover they had little padded inserts and fit a teeny bit better if I took those out. So, I decided well, I am only going to wear them around here, no socks or anything, no long walks -- maybe this will work.
I even cut my toenails!
Wore them a few times today.
And, nope. Just, nope.
Hate having to paypostage to ship them back, but I'm gonna! I hope they will exchange them for me even though they're on sale but I may end up with a credit instead. I'm going to call on Monday and see if I can elicit any sympathy. In the past, their customer service has been outstanding, so I have hope.
Still. DANG!
