It's funny how you go through life and pick up superstitions.
I thought about this last night as I came home and broke two "rules" of people who I lived with.

The first thing I did, Mom brace yourself, was put not one but 2 pairs of new shoes on the kitchen table.  When we were little, my mom swore that shoes on the table were bad luck.  Seriously??  At this point, I'll take my chances.  The first pair of shoes were tennies, like the ones pictured to the left, but mine are pink and white.  The second pair was a pair of really cute summer sling backs that were free. 
Yep free and here's how.  I went to Famous Footwear where they were having a buy one get one free sale.  The summer shoes were on sale - and then half price, so they were only 7.50, but wait for it. I had a coupon for $10 off a $50 purchase.  Since the tennies were only 49.99, my grand total, with tax was 50.10.  Hence free summer shoes. 
In case you were wondering the second superstition I broke was putting my purse on the floor.  There was someone I lived with who's people felt it was bad luck to keep a purse on the floor, especially if there was money in it.  Well, I don't think I have to worry about that!  LOL
