I've only ever owned one pair of sneakers at a time, but thanks to thrifting I now have four pair: New Balance, two pair of Skechers and Reebok. I'm also walking so much these days I'm wearing out the New Balance (also the first pair of shoes I ever thrifted.) I decided to thrift one more for a minimum bid, and won these Fila walking sneakers with tags in the original box.
The box has a pricetag of $59.99 from Kohl's; on the other side it was marked down to $29.99. Inside the box I found the original owner's receipt from 2018. The shoes came with tags and the store stuffing still in the toes so they were never worn. They're in remarkably pristine condition, too, and are made partly of mesh to allow air to circulate while you walk. I paid $9.99 for them.
The new sneakers are very similar to my favorite Skechers, which I wear when we go out walking, so I expect I'll get a lot of use out of them.

That's a great score. I need to try Goodwill again. I should be more consistent. I only think of it every once in a while.
