For Christmas, Greg put a &#036;500 gift card to DSW in my stocking and my son Chris got me a &#036;50 card.  At the time they bought them, they were issuing &quot;bonus bucks&quot; - a &#036;10 gift certificate for every &#036;50 spent.  As Greg spent &#036;500, he got &#036;100 in bonus bucks and Chris got a &#036;10 certificate.  They both gave them to me, so on top of the &#036;550 I had to spend there, I also got an additional &#036;110, so went in today with &#036;660 to spend.  I got 6 prs. today, for a total of &#036;280 and decided to save the rest (&#036;380) until spring when the sandals come out.  My best buy of the day was a &#036;100 pr. of silver Nina evening shoes on clearance for 19.99. <br />
