mtnsofheels Posted January 3, 2012 Posted January 3, 2012 See poll regarding $ spent a year on Heeled footwear. Do you budget for spending on Footwear? Mtnsofheels
mtnsofheels Posted January 3, 2012 Author Posted January 3, 2012 I saw the poll in the girls section and went I like that Question and it made me think about my own shopping. On average in the past couple of years it probably is around $1000 bucks. At the rate new cool styles coming out this could climb above that for sure. How about you guys? Mtnsofheels
CRabbit Posted January 3, 2012 Posted January 3, 2012 Last year I spent approximately £300 on heels totaling 14 purchases. Considering I'm now out of space to put my shoes, any new purchases will have to be real must-haves rather than impulse buys. Chris
Heelster Posted January 3, 2012 Posted January 3, 2012 I don't budget, and my wife thinks $10.00 is too much.
Majo Posted January 4, 2012 Posted January 4, 2012 I don't have a budget. Last year I bought 15 pairs averaging $300.- I usually buy 10 pairs a year. Many of the old pairs go away as space has become an issue lately. I now have 80 just pairs.
ilikekicks Posted January 4, 2012 Posted January 4, 2012 Do you budget for spending on Footwear? Mtnsofheels Actually.. Not at all. Its not really even a consideration when I do my budget. In fact, I would say I dont have any ' clothing ' budgeted at all, it just comes out of my ' money not dedicated to bills ' funds. REPEATEDLY ARGUMENTATIVE, INSULTING AND RUDE. BANNED FOR LIFE.
maninpumps Posted January 4, 2012 Posted January 4, 2012 My wife has me on a $50.00 a month budget for heels. She thinks this will stop me from buying to many pair that will never be worn. I still can't argue that point with her. She will allow me to go over sometimes when I order or BOGO is going on.
roniheels Posted January 4, 2012 Posted January 4, 2012 I spent a little over $200 last year on high heels. I have become a little more particular shopper and I make sure it is something I will wear and wear often and match my particular outfits.
Majo Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 My wife has me on a $50.00 a month budget for heels. Ohh! You could say she's put you on a diet.
legs777777 Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 Far to much, just had my credit card stopped again, bought eight pairs of boots in the last month.
jwhite44 Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 It's easy not to spend a lot - just have large size feet, where there's no selection to buy!
JeffB Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 Well, I don't have any exact figures, but I don't think I spent more than a hundred dollars on shoes in 2011, if that. I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman!
roniheels Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 In 2011 I spent about $2,500 on heels. If I may ask, how many pairs did that buy for you for that amount?
Trolldeg Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 If I may ask, how many pairs did that buy for you for that amount? 30 pairs. So not too much per pair.
hhboots Posted January 8, 2012 Posted January 8, 2012 I spent about $600 this last year which was quite a bit more than any prior year. I think I started to buy more quality boots and shoes, in years past I did a lot of ebay purchases. This year, I bought more in person from stores like Kohls and mall stores, and from websites such as endless.com and amazon.com
brianf Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 I am a fanatic about footwear so I probably spend between $500 and $600 per year on high heels.
HappyinHeels Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 All, I seem to have bought fewer pairs of pumps, boots, and wedges in 2011 but I spent more per pair than ever before. It seems I've really gravitated towards edgier heels and the price of those is closer to $80-100 rather than the $35-50 I use to spend. Everybody wants to look their best in their own way! HappyinHeels
Majo Posted March 7, 2012 Posted March 7, 2012 I spent about U$2820 on 17 pairs. That makes 165.50 a pair. Didn't buy any male's shoes.
Slides 'n Heels Posted March 7, 2012 Posted March 7, 2012 Whowww ! You must be a very wealthy man. Or won the lottery last year. For that amount of money I need to work almost 2 months..... (-: love to watch them on cute girls, love to wear them myself
crotchboots-m Posted March 7, 2012 Posted March 7, 2012 not as much as i would like to and more than i should,according to the wife. i buy a really nice pair when i think i can brave all the shit that will roll downhill
dressboots Posted March 7, 2012 Posted March 7, 2012 Zero for the past three years. Wife totally disapproves lately and don't want to put up with the grief. Well that and the down turn in the economy has slowed my spending on many "optional" things. It's impossible to justify a nice pair of women's high heeled boots that are strictly fashion and little function. classic style high heel boots
Shafted Posted March 7, 2012 Posted March 7, 2012 Zero for the past three years. Wife totally disapproves lately and don't want to put up with the grief. Well that and the down turn in the economy has slowed my spending on many "optional" things. It's impossible to justify a nice pair of women's high heeled boots that are strictly fashion and little function. Only one pair of pumps for the economical reason. Everything else gets tender loving care and regular maintenance. I only buy to replace now. Shafted, the boots that is! View my gallery here http://www.hhplace.o...afteds-gallery/ or view my heeling thread here http://www.hhplace.org/topic/3850-new-pair-of-boots-starts-me-serious-street-heeling/ - Pm me if you want fashion advice or just need someone to talk to.
Rei Posted March 8, 2012 Posted March 8, 2012 My guess is that I'll only be able to buy only one pair every year while I'm in college, if that. I've been pretty tight on money and a lot of what I do have goes into keeping my car running. ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛABΕ
FreshinHeels Posted March 9, 2012 Posted March 9, 2012 Last year was my first heeling year so I had a lot of catching up to do. Ended up spending about 1500 dollar. This year thats gotta be much less don't wanna blow the bank In the process of becoming the person I always was...but didn't dare to let her come out
geo Posted March 9, 2012 Posted March 9, 2012 I spend no more than 100 dollars a year in boots only. Prefer thigh high but only can afford knee high boots.
stilettopete Posted March 9, 2012 Posted March 9, 2012 I've spent about £500 in the past year. I've moved to just wearing boots now although I want a new pair of Louboutins this Spring so I might blow my budget very soon:winkiss: "You put high heels on and you change" M. Blahnik

Considering I'm now out of space to put my shoes, any new purchases will have to be real must-haves rather than impulse buys. Chris Last year i spent £200 on one purchase where do you get your heels? My local shops don't have size 11s!
adz302003 Posted March 12, 2012 Posted March 12, 2012 Due to a change in my circumstances I have bought quite a few pairs lately. So Probably TOO MUCH !
