Okay sexies.
I have spent the better part of the last few days watching you tube videos of ShoeDazzle and Just Fab customers. Some complaints, yet the majority of the customers were very happy with their hauls. Which is good. If you are spending your money on any product you should be happy with it. The one thing I did notice with these people showing off their hauls, several shoes were buckled straight out of the box. Yet the customers didn't seem to notice it or even care. The shoes were, however, very beautiful. I also particularly enjoyed watching them try to describe the materials these fabulous, dazzling shoes were made of. I heard decriptions like...Fake Leather, Feux Leather, some substance that feels like leather, feux suede, its some sort of suede like material, feux leather with an allagator or crocidile type feel, and so on. Really quite comical.
Watching these video's really made me sit back and do the math as to what the fabulous dazzlers are spending their money on. Considering that in most of the videos I watched customers purchased more than just shoes. They also purchased purses, dresses, jewlery etc. Yet one of the consistent themes of all the videos that I watched was economics. I thought that very strange considering a few of them actually had, what I thought were Louboutins in the background. After watching further I learned those were knockoffs as well.
Please allow me to break down my shoe game vs fabulous dazzlers shoe game. Cost does matter.
Since August of 2013 I have bought 10 pairs of shoes. I currently have 3 additional pair on the way with free shipping. My cost for 13 pairs of shoes in 7 months has been $470.06. Without discounts and coupons, I would have spent $1,506.35. I saved $1,036.29.
Fabulous Dazzlers spend either $39.95 per month or per pair of shoes. So in Showing my work.
$39.95 * 13 months = $519.35
My Shoe Game = $470.06 with a savings of $1,036.29. Fabulous Dazzlers shoe haul = $519.35 minimally. Keeping in mind most customers bought more than just shoes, or more than just one pair, so this is bare minimal for the exact same amount of shoes. Unless you joined within the last 13 months and received 50% off your first order. In that case, you then saved 19.99. For all other FabDazzels, in my opinion, $519.35 is an awful lot of money to spend on feux.
There you have it folks. The numbers don't lie.
This blog was not put up to make anyone feel bad about their choice to join these clubs. Hopfully it makes you aware, that if your ultimate goal is to save money, there are other options available to you.
Caveat Emptor. [Latin, Let the buyer beware.]
Or as my Mother used to tell me about my bad choices in men..."What looks good to you, is not always good for you."
Happy Shoe Shopping.
