Yesterday afternoon my daughter called and said she found a pair of boots she wanted for Christmas and asked if we would get them for her..Of course I said...I asked where we could buy them and she said she had them set aside at the store but we had to get them by last night or they would be gone..Well anyway we got the boots and they cost $348.00...They were made in Mexico..so I said to my wife wow 348.00 for shoes made in Mexico..her reply was at least they were not made in China..guess that made it OK then..LOL..Some people do not realize there is a recession going on...
