My old tennis shoes have been getting a bit ratty, so I thought I’d pop over to Amazon and order some new ones. This has two benefits: I get a small kickback, and I avoid having to go out and waste time actually looking for shoes. However, there’s a slight problem: they don’t actually have any shoes in my size. I could understand if they only had ugly shoes in size 13, but c’mon… even the fugly ones top out at size 11 or so. I guess I should be happy that their real-time database integration shows exactly which sizes they have in stock, but it’s still disappointing that I am now condemned to visit Shoe Carnival or the equivalent.
