Hi all, as some of you may know, my wife went back to school this year to study Law. Unfortunately, this has reduced our household to one income, causing us to tighten our already tight purse strings. One way I have been saving money is buying my work shoes at the thrift store. Working on a golf course is probably the most brutal environment for a pair of shoes. Going from wet to dry, being caked with mud, as well as being exposed to chemicals leads to a short life span for most pairs. If you can get 6 months out of them, you are ahead of the curve. I used to spend between 50 to 100 dollars for a pair. By shopping at Savers, I have been able to find slightly worn, comfortable shoes for $6-$8! They still last for 6 months, so which is the smarter move? Think about it next time you have to buy your next pair for the course.
