Brightening those rainy days

The weather has been kind of dreary here, and it
rained recently. I wanted to get M some rain boots so
he could splash in the puddles and keep his feet dry.
I ended up going with these cute Western Chief frog boots
which have the pull-on handles to make it easier
to put them on himself. They are listed at about
$30 on our favorite online shoe retailer,
Shoebuy.com. While there are
a few sites that list these boots for less
(~$24), I used the coupon SAVE10 to save $10
off. And since we had bought shoes there within the last 60
days, we saved an additional 10%. No shipping
costs or tax (and free return shipping) made
this a nice no-risk deal under $20. They seemed
roomy (we ordered a size 7; he currently wears a
pair each of 6 and 6.5 shoes), and we could
easily tuck his pants into the boots. M liked
them and loved stomping around in the puddles
this weekend. I thought he might have trouble
walking around in them but he didn't at all. I
checked the coupon today and it still works, but
I am not sure when it expires. There are a lot
of other varieties of boots as well. I'm
thinking of picking up a pair or two for
Christmas gifts.
