Payless can be hit or miss, I guess, but aren't they always miss??? Whenever I buy shoes from Payless, my feet always end up hurting or smelling bad.

Endless probably comes before Zappos for me in some things. I think they have a better selection of shoes, and they're ALWAYS prompt in shipping. I really can't complain much about them. They've got the trend, cost, and customer service parts down.

My absolute favorite place to get shoes. Honestly, my rating here is based more on the store experience. The shoes aren't plenty but what shoes there are, are of good quality. I ordered once online because I couldn't find the shoes I wanted in my size at the store. The people at the store checked online for me and found them there. Delivery took longer than Zappos or Endless, but they've kind of spoiled us by not making us wait for our shoes. I didn't mind the wait.

Okay, I'm going to get in on this shoe debate. There are 5 places that I get my shoes from in this order: Zappos, Nordstrom, Endless, DSW, 6pm.

I put 6 pm last not because it's awful but because their shoes are the least trendy (I mean, it's a discount warehouse). My sister doesn't care so much about trends since she loves the same patterns of shoes, but I do. 6pm is best for flats (not many trends happen around those) and once I buy a pair, I don't look back to check the prices because I know, if I had waited a day or two, I would have gotten them for cheaper since their prices change by a lot daily.

My sister told me about MyHabit...so now I man my emails to see what's going on sale. I like the clean look of the website, and the best part is that most of the items that go on sale are modeled in videos. That way you can see the outfit on the model in motion. Yeah so we're not 5 feet 10, 120 pounds, but at least you can see how the fabric flows. I ordered a couple of Juice Couture leggings last week, and they arrived TODAY, unlike Gilt, which takes FOREVER. There's free shipping to and from, and I was able to apply a $10 intro coupon. Also, if you have an Amazon account, you automatically are a member of MyHabit.

I bought from Gilt a couple of times in January. It's alright...it's really popular so you can't take your time to decide, and they only give you 10 minutes once something is in your cart. Popular brands get sold out really quickly, and shipping is also slooow. But I've never had any real problems with it that would make me have to go through customer service.

I love dailypuppy.com. Everyday there's a new puppy picture and story about the puppy. They're always cute!

Maru, the cat, is fat, and he loves jumping head first into boxes. What results is extreme cuteness. I love love love Maru!! If you've seen any of his videos on Youtube (intro video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_AbfPXTKms) and have fallen in love with him too, you'll love even more his blog http://sisinmaru.blog17.fc2.com/. I can't get enough of Maru pictures and captions.

I bought a pair of shoes from zappos.com and was happy when the shoes came 3 days later! I didn't have to return them, but if I had to, the returns are free. The prices are super cheap, and there's a really good selection.

I love Sephora! It has everything I need for hair, make-up, skin care, nails, everything! Since I know the store so well, I can get what I need on the website shipped to me by the next week. The best things are: free shipping for purchases over $50 (easy), free returns (easy to do) and free samples!

Cuteoverload is a site I have to check everyday. It has tons of pictures and videos of baby animals or animals doing cute things. If you're into sites like ICanHasCheezburger, you'll probably like cuteoverload!

Zoya produces long-lasting, natural nail polishes free of harsh chemicals. I can't seem to find them in any stores so I buy them from zoya.com (which redirects you to artofbeauty.com, by the way). I've gotten lots of different colors from them and I'm totally happy with all of them. The nail polish is easy to apply, and I didn't have any problems with buying from the website!
