    I didn't expect the item to be shoes,how strange that would bother you
  • My Grandfather often wore ladies shoes. He had very small feet and found they fitted him better. Mind you he never wore high heels or anything particularly girly, just the flat plain shoes. He must have had to go into the shops and try them on not just collect them.

    No I didn't expect shoes either - was wondering what could be so bad???

    Does it matter?

    Much worse things you can get delivered in a jiffy bag. :)
  • i dont understand why this post is in this area and it hasnt been moved, men buy women presents every day its no big deal and the staff in shop probably wont even be interested its just another sale to them so whats the big fuss all about?

    I have ordered some items from next (boots!) to be precise and wanted to know how they are packaged for collection? Do they come in sealed bags like stuff from John Lewis, or will I have the embarrassment of obviously being a man buying women's shoes?

    Sorry if I have posted this in the wrong area but I thought you sassy shoppers would be able to help!
