have to have...

I am dying for some cute brown leather boots. But the cheapie in me doesn't want to spend the cash. Thank goodness for my super shopper friend HP. She pointed me in the direction of the Rack Room and I found them.
Wanting these:

At $129 they aren't bad (and I have $20 in banana bucks) -

but then I found these:

HP got these on her lunch break and they are asking $49.99. I'm sold. Maybe. I always try to go the cheaper way, but end up getting sucked back to the higher priced item...What do you think? (HP says the cheapies look even better in person) It's worth a shot.
