I am giving away two brand new pair of boots. These were issued to me by the Army before I retired a year and a half ago so I can't in good conscience sell them. If you need them or know someone "in need" who could use them put your name in the hat. If you are interested, let me know and try to specify which pair as one is a 10 1/2 and one is an 11. If you are like me and, depending on boot, may wear either size, if you don't designate and win, you will get whichever size I send to you. I plan to let this run for about 5 days or more. After that, I am going to take everyone's name who expressed an interest and then I'm going to use a random number generator to pick whomever the winners are. I only ask that the winners agree to pay the shipping cost.
slumlord, you're one of those lucky guys. Whenever I go to the sale rack for hunting boots or tennis shoes that are all 50 to 80 per cent off, there are never 10 1/2s or 11s. However, there always seem to be what I want in sizes 13, 14 & 15.
TheBigSky; Good afternoon sir, I hope the sky in your world is a bit less smoky today and all in your world are well.
I'm just here to send you a public tip of the battered Bailey and send you a sincere "Well done sir" for the boot offer.
I smiled when you mentioned the stuff that's left on sale too, as somehow there's never 8½ EE boots or shoes here either or denims that fit folks my size either for that matter.
Perhaps there's only two of us lawn gnome sized guys out there so the stores don't stock whatever the opposite of "Big and Tall" is "Small and Short" I suppose?
Anyways sir, it's a grand gesture and I felt you deserved public kudos.

Slumlords feet are big... I don't joke about them. Ever..........

Right Right
but all that’s left are those NBA jiggaboo high tops. Usually yellow or red. 🥴
I know I said I would probably keep this up for about five days; but, based on the current interest, I will probably be drawing tomorrow sometime. I don't think I am "shorting" anybody by doing so.
O.K., I took the total number of entrants and assigned each a number. I put the total number into a random number generator and generated two numbers. The winners are leesway2 and gunzo. Gentlemen, please contact me with your shipping information. Once I ship, sometime this week, I will provide you with the shipping cost.
To the winners, I just received a message from a member who wishes to remain anonymous. He sent the following to me, which has been edited to remove his identity per his wishes.
[quote=]Big Sky, That was a generous offer giving away those new pair of boots.
If you are open to it, I'd like to pick up the tab for the shipping costs, to make this totally free to those receiving them.
I would do this totally anonymous, not looking for credit... just paying forward your good gesture.
Good move on your part...
cheers and best regards[/quote]
So, if the winners will contact me, the tab for shipping has been picked up by one of our regular and esteemed members.
