Horse Shoes... for Me!

Rarely do I buy from the advertisements that are inserted into my Facebook feed, but when I saw one for horse print shoes, I couldn't resist! 
My new shoes arrived yesterday afternoon.
I really like them and they are very comfortable.
 Although I did goof and accidentally order TWO pairs instead of one.
I'd put both styles in my cart so that I could compare the two and take some time deciding. I thought I'd deleted the one I'd decided not to purchase, but when I got an electronic receipt, I saw that I'd accidentally ordered both.

No problem, I figured I'd try on both pairs when they arrived and return one. 
Except... the shoes came from CHINA. Not that the ad ever stated that or that there was any inkling given in the electronic communications as to their country of origin. It wasn't until I received tracking information and a memo in Chinese characters that I realized where my shoes were coming from. 

These shoes traveled across the Pacific in a shipping container on a boat and were then routed across the country, finally arriving into the hands of the USPS and delivered here. I'm going to look again, but I did not see any return information in the box they arrived in.

But you know what? I think I'm okay with that. I like both pairs!
