Sunglasses Walmart Boot Decisions

No Thursday Thirteen today. I have a decision to make and I need some advice. I need a new pair of sunglasses, and A new pair of work boots for around the farm. The choice is:1.) go with the cheap pair of sunglasses, and a nice pair hiking boots that are $39.97. OR 2.)the nice pair of Sunglasses that are $49.99 and the cheap boot at Wal-mart for $29.99. I have tried the boots on at Wal-mart, and they are not too bad. I question how long they will hold up with me. I go through boots pretty quick. I talked to the sales lady in the shoe dept, and she said I could take them back after a month if I am not satisfied. That's not bad, but I want my next pair of boots to last me like the previous pair I had. (I bought them in 2001 for some Alaska trip, any body remember that?) That pair cost about $120. But they lasted me until last October. I justify the sunglasses because I drive for work every day. I have had polarized sunglasses before and really like them . They help out a lot. It's like having heated seats in your car, once you have them it is hard to go back to the regular stuff. It's not much of a choice really money wise it is almost the same, but I tend to take too much time making the decision.

So what should I do?

A.Buy some cheap sunglasses and suck it up about driving a lot and buy the nice Boots with the zipper

B.Buy the nice sunglasses because it is nice having them because you drive so much and get the Wal-mart boots that might work out you can can always take them back after a month.

C. Stop dwelling on such a stupid decision, just buy what you want, you know you going to anyway.

D.Your wife is going to chime in soon, just be safe and do what she says...

I vote for the boots. Sunglasses aren't that expensive, are they?

Boots. Most definately boots. Never buy cheap boots. Never a good deal.

In case you are wondering what I think....

Good boots! sunglasses never make it over a year around here. They either get lost or a kid breaks them. Cheap sunglasses are the way to go!
