What do you get when you get together some local bloggers, tasty treats from Zoё’s Kitchen, and 3 moms sweating for shoes?
Well, a Dallas Moms Blog and Famous Footwear Back to School event of course!
This past Sunday, we hosted almost 20 DFW bloggers for an awesome night of shopping and giveaways.
If you haven’t been into a Famous Footwear lately, now’s the time to give it a try! They’re having an awesome sale between now and September 14th that will give you an excuse to go shopping for others and grab a few pairs for yourself! All shoes at Famous Footwear are Buy One, Get One 50% off!
With brands like Converse, Adidas, Nike, Fergalicious, Clarks, and Franco Sarto, you’re guaranteed to find something for each person in your family.
That means you can buy a new pair of Converse for your son and some comfy Teva’s for around the house for you.
Or maybe an adorable pair of Hello Kitty sneakers for your toddler and a trendy pair of Steve Madden boots for yourself.
Either way, Mom wins!
In addition to spending a little too much money that night, several lucky ladies walked away with gift cards from Ulta and Office Depot. But the big winners were the 3 even more lucky ladies who snagged a chance at Famous Footwear’s Shoe Crazy shopping spree! (Imagine Supermarket Sweep but with shoes.)
For 30 seconds, Mama Challenge, The Frugal Mom, and our own Krystal Hurst grabbed as many shoes as they could. . .and then they got to KEEP them!
But it gets better. They weren’t only motivated to take home as many shoes as they could grab, but the total value of shoes collected was donated to a local charity. Surprisingly, most of the mommies did a great job snagging a few pairs for themselves and were thoughtful enough to grab some for their kids too!
So, how much was donated? Just over $815!
That’s a lot of shoes! (Want to see it for yourself? Watch the video here!)
We had a great night getting to know other DFW bloggers and our friends at Famous Footwear!
If you could grab as many shoes as possible, what would be the first pair you’d grab?
Would you shop for yourself or your kids?
