Is it me or am I the only person who can’t afford UGG boots?
Famous UGGs
We have been having snow for few days, and all the boots are coming out! Everywhere I turn I see people wearing UGG boots – women, children, and even infant babies!
However, I have also seen people wearing their UGGs all year around!!
Misfit UGGs
I know I am that fashion conscious anymore, but it’s really funny to see people wearing their boots in 90 degrees weather! I guess they have to show off what they have; right?
I was curious last night about the boots (and the price), and decide to Google it. There were many websites selling them, but I decided to research UGG’s official webpage.
If you didn’t know about UGG products here are some information.
According to the company’s Product Statement, “…the finest materials are used … highest quality leathers and suedes, … the world’s finest sheepskin. UGG Australia is the world’s largest purveyor of grade-A sheepskin (About Us).”
The boots I see more often than not is the “Women’s Ultimate Tall Braid boots;” which costs $200.00 (with
UGG
free domestic ground shipping on this item) – WOW!
Children’s “Kid’s Lo Pro button Tall” boots sells for $100.00, and the “Infant Boo” is priced at $50.00 – My goodness, when did everybody get so rich?
With house foreclosing, banks/investment companies go belly-up, public debt, unemployment rates increasing, and many other businesses going down how in the heck are people affording these things?
Yes, many Americans are living off of credit cards, but it is that important to have such pricy/luxury items?
I have a friend who buys everything with the plastic card: grocery, purses, gas, coffee, utility, and etc – everything and anything that costs money, she runs the card.
Charging
I know for a fact that her husband does not make that much (and she has told me that herself in non-confidential manner) and know she cannot afford it, but she tells everybody, “It makes me feel good to have these things!”
Honestly, who doesn’t want it? Who doesn’t want to wear nice and pretty things? Give me a break!
However, my motto is that “If you can afford it, and then go right ahead. As for me I didn’t win the lotto yet!”
