Payless Shoes is running a week-long their BOGOHO sale (through 10/10/11), which they generally run about three to four times each year. Now, if you remember your shopper's math, you'll recall that this type of buy-one-get-one-half-off sale (assuming all items are the same price, which gives you the greatest discount) is really the same thing as saying 25% off.
Nice deal. 25% off is a good discount, but we can do better.
There is also a stackable online promo code (and in-store coupon) for 20% off your entire order (expires 10/31/11): 42581. Very nice deal.
And if you order online and choose the ship-to-store option, you won't have to pay any shipping fees. Luckily there are Payless Shoes stores everywhere. Very, very nice deal .
And of course, we never buy anything online without clicking through a cash-back program first. ShopAtHome.com is currently giving 8% cash back on Payless Shoes. Paydirt nice deal!
Now, I know that not everyone like buying shoes at Payless. Their shoes are, frankly, cheaply made. But they are great for kids, who might go through two to three shoes sizes a year. They are also great buys for beach shoes, flipflops, trendy shoes that you only plan on wearing for a season, etc. In short, Payless is a great place to get shoes that will be worn for a short time and then thrown out. If you're hesitant about buying shoes online without trying them first, go into a Payless Store, pick out the ones you want, and then order them online. I've actually done that from my Iphone, while still in-store.
Payless is also a fantastic place to get accessories like handbags, socks and belts. I buy tons of hosiery from Payless, especially when they have sales like this. If you buy multiple of the same-priced item and take full advantage of these stackable discounts your grand total will come out 45% less than the original price! Let's buy some tights and you'll see what I mean:
- Click through the ShopAtHome.com link to Payless Shoes first to make sure you get 8% cash back. (Remember, you must be a member of ShopAtHome.com and signed into your account to get your cash back.

- Add 8 pairs of these black microfiber tights to your shopping cart. Remember, you always want to buy even number quantities when there is a BOGO or BOGOHO sale going on, to take full advantage of your BOGO disocunt. Each pair of these tights costs $6.99, bring your total to $55.92.
- Because of the BOGO sale, your total is reduced by $3 for 4 pairs of the tights (or 25% off the total), bringing your total down to $41.94.
- Enter promo code 42581 at checkout for 20% ($8.39) off your entire purchase. Your total is now $33.55.
- Select ship-to-store to avoid paying a $5.95 shipping fee.
- With your 8% cash back, you'll get those 8 pairs of microfiber tights for $30.87, or approximately 45% off the original price of $55.92. This works out to $3.86 per pair, and these are quality, durable tights.
Susie, I just went over to Payless and got an awesome deal. I sent you an email about it. Thanks for the tip!
