Roller skates - again!

Would really like to get 6yo dd the main thing on her santa list but am reluctant to buy a pair online. Something tells me that we should be going to a sports store and getting fitted (esp since she has titchy, narrow feet and ankles) but that would blast Santa out of the water. Do I just concede and get her some online?

Get Santa to leave her a magic voucher with pics of lots of diff kinds of skates, all glittery and lots of colour? Not the same as opening a pressie but ......

Most kids skates now seem very adjustable though - both lengthwise and the lacing/strapping.

Can you maybe get them from a shop which will let you exchange afterwards if they don't suit?
