It's always hard to select Christmas gifts for my grandparents and in laws.
Often they tell my husband and I not to buy them anything, because there isn't anything they really need.....which is true but who wants to go to Grandma's house on Christmas Eve bringing nothing?
Not me.
So this year I thought long & hard about what gift I could give my older loved ones that would be practical, affordable and something they would really be happy that I got them later on.
And so it hit me.....
CROCS!
Crocs are PERFECT for older relatives.
First of all, most of my older relatives have never heard of Crocs. They wouldn't know where to buy them.
Second, Crocs are ugly. People forget the good reasons Crocs became popular and began buying them for the trendiness and those freggin jibbitz...well how many elderly folk are into jibbitz? Who instantly sees a pair of Crocs and thinks BEAUTY!!??!!
Many older folks are not aware of the GREAT things Crocs shoes are made for. Crocs are so much more than garden shoes.
Crocs are slip resistant. Crocs are easy to get on & off. Crocs can be dressed up or down. Crocs are socially acceptable. Crocs are anti bacterial! No getting germs from these babies!
So many valid reasons for older people with such issues as: arthritis ----having trouble tying shoes, people who fall easily, and people who even the smallest cold can really become sick to wear these shoes.
Crocs are also 50% off this week at crocs.com.
Plus free shipping.
Yep.
I was able to snag two pairs of Crocs for under 30.00 INCLUDING shipping.
Don't forget to use the coupon code: crocfriend8
Look, they may be ugly, but once my father in law sees the comfort, tests the non slip thingy out when he's getting his AM paper and sees how quickly they go on & off...I think he will be pleased.
And then maybe for Mother Day/Father Day I can buy them some jibbitz.
