How I got three pairs of shoes for less than $10
I have a new favorite product: Dr. Scholl’s Rub Relief Strips. I spotted these in the aisle at Target and thought this might be the right solution for the three pairs of shoes I have left, for the most part, sitting in my closet all summer. When I have worn these shoes, either strappy summer sandals or peep-toes, they’ve rubbed blisters onto my toes or the sides of my feet. That relegated them pretty quickly to the back of the closet, unworn.
The strips come in a dispenser so you can tear off and apply as much or as little as you need to the inside of your shoes, padding where needed. Last night I fixed up all three pairs and happily realized I just added three “new” pairs of shoes to my wardrobe — for less than 10 bucks. Not bad.

Sweet! Great tip. Will have to keep that in mind the next time I’m at Target.

Love your site. The working mom balancing act is a challenge and I share many of your thoughts and projects. The pre teen re decorate had me laughing as my two early teen girls just presented me with a proposal to paint their room that same blue and they want to accent with brown . I am up for it if they organize and do the work. So hard to squeeze these long projects into nights and weekends. Keep up the great work.

Very cool! Does it look like the strips will stay on for a long time?
