Sometimes I feel like maybe I’m posting too many coupons for shoes, and then I snap back to reality and realize that “too many coupons for shoes” is a complete oxymoron. Even if you’re not the sort to enjoy a not-strictly-necessary pair of shoes now and then, if you have kids you have likely experienced the dubious joy of suddenly needing new shoes for them right now even though last week everything fit just fine.
Darn kids.
Anyway, whether it’s to keep CPS off your lawn or because you have a little mad money and a hankering for some new kicks, today only at Shoebuy.com you can use coupon code EMLPRIVATE08 to save 25% on your order.
Now. Isn’t that a great reason to buy some new shoes?

Does the man in your life need a new suit? Take this simple test to find out!
He may need a new suit if:
1) He doesn’t own a suit.
2) The last time he bought one, it was cool to wear it with white loafers.
3) You can see through the elbows of the one he’s wearing now.
4) He says this one fits fine “as long as I don’t button it.”
If you answered “yes” to any of the above, you may want to check out the 2-day suit sale at Jos. A. Bank
. Every single suit is 60% off! It’s a fine time to get a great bargain on a quality suit.
Just, please, don’t let him wear it with white shoes.

Longtime readers know I have a great love for the kids’ clothes at Crazy 8. They’re cute! They’re durable! The kids like ‘em! And best of all, they often offer coupons. Through Sunday, September 21st, use code C8ONLINE to take 20% off your order.
Plenty of summer stuff is on clearance—just in case you feel like stocking up for next year.

LL Bean’s Thursday Morning Markdown today is this herringbone peacoat, down from $179 to just $49. So cute! I’d buy one, maybe, except I live in Georgia, so I’d get to wear it maybe twice in January and that’s it. Ship your order for free with coupon code 3004296, and remember that it needs to go in the “Promotions” box (not the coupon box).
Sometimes I miss cute Winter clothing. And then I remember that being cold is yucky, and I feel better.

The other day I was going through the Lands’ End Overstocks and there were several things I was thinking of ordering. And then I thought to myself, “Self, there hasn’t been a free shipping coupon for Lands’ End in a while. Maybe I should wait. Surely there will be one soon!”
And then I forgot about it.
But I guess Lands’ End really loves me, because guess what I found this morning! Yes! Free shipping! (Now with extra exclamation points!) Just use code BOOTS with PIN 5206. Hooray!

(Well, not for me. I live in Georgia, where we’ll start thinking about closing the pool around Halloween. But perhaps you don’t live here on the surface of the sun like I do.)
Need a lightweight jacket to head into Fall? The LL Bean Thurdsday Morning Markdown is a ladies’ warm-up jacket for $22 (down from $69). Use coupon code 3004365 to ship your order for free, too.
I might need one of these, actually. In December.

Hey, it looks like you can go shop at Fashion Bug and then use coupon code 776234205 for free shipping on any size order! Coupon valid through September 23rd, 2008.
This is useful for when you just want to sort of dart in and pick up one or two things. Don’t forget—Fashion Bug carries girls’ clothes, too! Check the clearance for the best deals, of course. Does your daughter wear polos as part of a school uniform? They have both blue and white ones in the clearance for under $5.
(My daughter would take one look, shun the plain polos, and demand the stripey arm sock things. But I’m sure you won’t have that problem….)

You already know that Catherines is a great place to find clothing for plus-sizes, right? (I mean, you have seen me post about them before….)
Today (September 9th, 2008) only, use coupon code 776721904 to take $15 off your $25+ order. (Psssst! They have accessories that fit all sizes, too!)
The site’s running a little slow right now—probably a bunch of folks going in to the use coupon—but if you’re patient, you should be able to shop. Have fun.

(For the rest of the day, anyway.)
Okay, so here’s the thing: Right now all DC footwear is just $19.95 at 6pm.com. “Oh,” you say, “more shoes! Again?”
But here’s the thing. DC makes sneakers and stuff, sure. But they also make snowboard boots. You know—the thing that normally cost $150+? Those things? That your teenagers are begging for every winter?
Under twenty bucks, baby. You can be a hero before the first snowflake falls.

You should have shoes coming out of your ears, by now (that doesn’t sound very comfortable), but when has that ever stopped us from shoe shopping, before? Never. Besides, those pesky children tend to outgrow their shoes when we least expect it.
Right now at Shoebuy, you can take $20 off your $50+ purchase when you pay with Paypal. Automatically! Shipping and returns are always free, of course. So now you don’t have to grumble when Junior needs new shoes.
Instead, you have an excuse to pick up those cute ballet flats you’ve been eying while you provide for your child. It’s a form of altruism, really.
