I don't get it.
All across the USA, people stood in long lines in hopes of being able to spend around $200 for a pair of sneakers.
That's it. I don't want to hear one more news story that the economy is weak. Not when luxury items like limited edition basketball shoes incite people to spend hours waiting in line to buy them.
(By the way, if some department store offered a pair of Jimmy Choos for $100, I'd have to think long and hard whether or not to spend that much on a pair of shoes, and you better believe I'd never queue for hours while I thought about it.)
