How to find the best price for something (specifically these boots)

Hi

I don't buy clothes much as I don't have the money so don't have my 'finger on he pulse' so to speak so really need your help please.

I need a pair of good walk to school in all weather boots. I love the Timberland Nellie (not sure which shade of brown) but I can see it is stocked in loads of shops and at different prices. Typically I have probably missed the best of the sales now Sad.

So, I need to order online, I am a size 6, would prefer it to be from a shop with free returns just in case.

Can anyone help me please?

Don't know about free return but they are £89 with free delivery here
If you google the boots and then select 'shopping' from the menu you will get up a list of retailers and prices. Check out Quidco too as they have a lot of shoe/boot shops that give you cashback on purchases.

I have almost identical boots which last for ages and ages and they are Rocket Dog. They are about £70 and I buy them from amazon. Hold on, I will find a link.

Great, thanks so much both! I really don't want to be the muggins that pays full price so they are great tips / links.

Wildthong - they only have size 4 in stock Sad.

Have you had a look on Schuh's ebay store? stores.ebay.co.uk

They've got them in the olive colour on the Office website for £75. Not sure about free delivery/returns though. (Sorry on phone so can't link)

Thanks. They aren't on the SChuh site, but thanks for letting me know about that. I had no idea and it will be useful in future.

Wench - wow, thanks. Now, do I want Olive (I know I said I wasn't sure about colour but was musing the brown options. Green-ish could be OK, I guess. What do you think?

I really like the olive colour - I think it'd be pretty versatile (with my clothes anyway) it's quite neutral and not too green.

Thanks Lambzig.

Wenchelda. It's such a good price I might just go for those.

Thanks all. I really appreciate your help Thanks

The Timberland site has them in a 6 for £87. Returns are through UPS.

Thanks dexter! I have just ordered them.

They say they are waterproof. Do you think I need to use anything on them or can I use them 'out of the box'?
