Am I a shoe hoarder?
In doing some early organizing to make room for future nursery, I'm finding. Real shortage of shoe storage space upstairs. I also realized I have a lot more fukking shoes than I thought. If you asked I probably would have said I had around 40 pair. In face, it seems I have closer to 100 or so. I find this kind of shocking. I realize I have a rather "sure, what the hell" attitude about shoes under $30, so we're talking a lot of Payless and Target in there. I just had no idea I had so many. It probably doesn't help that I rarely get rid of shoes. Does anyone else shoe hoard? I'm wondering if this is actually a pretty normal size shoe collection, cause it seems a little extreme to me.
Re: Am I a shoe hoarder?
One day in the fall, when Mr. Mod had a day off that I didn't, he called me at work. He called me at work to day "Did you know that you have 107 pairs of shoes?" I replied "Clearly you didn't find the drawer of summer sandals built into the bench in my closet"
So yeah, I think you're fine. Mostly because I am flawless. And because the bottom drawer of my double wide file cabinet at work is filled with shoes.

I was just coming to grips with the fact I have a very serious shoe problem. I also have a very serious online shopping problem. I keep getting notices of stuff shipping that I have already forgot I ordered. 90% of it is shoes. I tried getting rid of some stuff once, but I am not so good at that.
I'm sitting here trying to take mental inventory and I keep remembering more and more. It's not pretty.

11/11/11 = 5 years. Woah!
I'm up to 7 pairs, not counting gardening shoes. I kind of need sandals though. I don't think I've ever owned 8 pairs of shoes before, it feels weird.
You're only a hoarder if you store dead cats with your massive shoe collection.

Sometimes I wonder if scientists have never seen a sci-fi movie before. "Oh yes, let's create a super species of deer. NOTHING COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG." I wonder if State Farm offers a Zombie Deer Attack policy. -CaliopeSpidrman
Was it a pet? Maybe it's time to purge.

I probably have 15-20 pairs.
At one point I realized I was starting to get out of control, and did a huge purge. I had some pangs, but it felt really good giving pretty stuff to charity (instead of my usual crap..) - and I gave some to my little cousins too, and they were SUPER excited.
I'm in the sam zone with probably 20, including the ones at work.
Mod, you live in an apartment...WTH do you store 100+ pairs of shoes? I would have to create a closet out of thin air to make that work.

I'm probably around 30. And my husband already complains.
(this is probably because one time when a pair of shoes arrived he caught me sniffing them with what he described as a "drugged look")
I love shoes, I just try to limit it, and I do purge occasionally. And I'm kind of the opposite as I spend more money (not Novembermoney) on less pairs.
