Shouldn't shoe stores sell shoe laces?

[GoneOffShore]

I mean they sell the shoes with laces.

So why wouldn't a shoe store keep laces in stock?

They told me to try CVS. Really? A 'drug store'? For shoe laces?

1. That would just make way too much sense

Let me guess - Payless?

7. Barefeet Shoes and someplace called Kicks.

2. They used to.

And they'd always try to sell you shoe care items like brushes, buffing cloths, shoe trees, etc.
Also socks.
That was a long time ago.

Now it CVS or Walmart for laces.

3. Only if they're by the seashore and the shoe laces are made of seashell should a shoe store

sell shoe laces.

5. That will cost you two Hearts.

9. I bid three clubs ...

4. The ones that sell US Made shoes do - and the laces are US Made too.

So, no. Don't expect it. K-Mart has laces, and Dollar Tree has 8-packs that are US Made.

6. The Days Of The Shoe Horn!

They used to be big in selling shoe shine kits. Even the "taps" that teens thought were so cool when they clicked the midnight streets! But you would think that at least a sad pair of laces would have survived in todays show society!

8. Looking for cool colored shoe laces

Nothing boring.

10. Check out Amazon.

11. No kidding!

CVS is the ONLY place to buy shoelaces!

[UTUSN]

12. They want to sell more shoes, not more laces

Like collar/button extenders in the shirt department. Shirts, not extenders.

13. Had to find an online site last year:

Shoelacesexpress.com

[GoneOffShore]

14. Very cool - but 1980's creaky website.

Complete with the "Waving flag" gif - I hate that gif.
Much like Marvin hated the doors on the Heart of Gold.

And wow! $11 for shoelaces?

15. They do at Payless. (n/t)
