i had bought a pair of size 11 boots at payless, i tryd them on and they wer a bit tight but i thought if i wore them they would loosen up a bit,, well they didnt so i took them back after one night of wearing and exchanged them for the size 12 that wer still there and took off my beat up sandles and put the boots on right in front of the cashier lady,, she said there u look better:D,,one of the sales guys who works at this payless is gay i can tell,, and they dont have a problem with cds comin in there,, nor does Heather who is the manager of the Famous footwear store near me,,i have been in there a few times dressed and her whole staff r cool ,, she used to have a cd who came in there a few yrs back but she hasnt seen him in a while
