The CSP Tootsies Too Warehouse Sale starts tomorrow, so get your game on! This NYC-style sample shoe sale is just for kids, with spring and summer shoes (and fall, of course:) from 50-80% off!
A few of our CSP readers won the chance at first dibs on the stash as they spent last Saturday morning shopping their hearts out. A big Smarty congratulations goes out to Heidi Berger, Amy Christenbury, Leslie Jones, Katie Spencer and Betsy Scott. What a fun morning!
For the rest of us, the frenzy starts tomorrow! The savings is incredible with Keds as low as $5 and designer shoes for at most $40 – what a Smarty bargain! Tootsies Too is located in the Myers Park Shopping Center and is roomies with Fancy Pants, just a few doors down from Wolfman Pizza. With over $50,000 in inventory to move out, this sale is too big to host inside of Tootsies Too, so they rented space two doors down just for this shin-dig. The coolest part of this sale is that they are opening it up to CSP readers FIRST. So we can score the best kicks before they open it up to the public – yippee!

This sale actually opened on Monday and was a zoo! Great shoes, but most are pretty picked over by now.
WE'VE BEEN HOOD-WINKED! Not sure where the miscommunication originated or why, but the shopping frenzy started MONDAY — for the public! No secret password required! Get in there today. Still lots of good shoes left. I understand they sold a HUGE amount on Monday. (I did not go because I was relying on Smarty Pants for the "SCOOP.") But, it is definitely still worth the trip. So, get in there today! The sale is located next to Paul Simon down from Fancy Pants. Don't waste your valuable time going to the Tootsies Too store for a secret password! It is open to all NOW!! And has been for three days!!
The PRIVATE SALE for the Tootsies customers started Monday.We did this as our customers are the reason we exist and we want to thank them for the many years of their support. Many of our customers are also CSP readers.Tootsies has not opened or advertised this SALE to the public yet..that will happen on Monday. Tomorrow the sale opens for the CSP readers. You get heads up thanks to Jen and her staff before the rest of the moms of Charlotte. There was over $50,000 worth of merchandise when we started and over 2/3 of great shoes remains. Hope you will take advantage of this opportunity, great shoes at great prices…See you tomorrow
I was there today and there are still TONS of great shoes and unbeatable prices!! I was shocked when I entered the "sale" room…it is FULL to the max!You don't want to miss out on this CSP moms!!happy shopping!
I was there today and left with 3 pairs of New Balance and one pair of Keds for under $90. The best part – 3 very happy kids and one happy mom with the savings. There are still plenty of great shoes and deals to be had.
cheers for the info! i'm going ASAP to have a look
I went at 4:00 yesterday and got 5 pair of quality, expensive shoes for $100. There is more of a girls selection but still was able to find a pair of merrells and saucony for my son-size 2. Have fun. It is definitely worth your time.
So bummed to get there today and the place was cleaned out pretty good. We definitely were hood winked as one reader said. So much for the password and early shopping.wb
Very disappointed about the amount of boy shoes, very bought over, limited selection, odd colors left, the girl stuff took up 85% of the place, not worth the trip if you are looking for boys
Just returned from the sale. I did get one pair of cute shoes for $23, but it's pretty picked over at this point. For example, there are literally only two pair of Lilly Kelly (sp?) shoes left in the whole store. 75% of the inventory is for girls. Mostly lesser brands left at this point.
I was there between 10 and 11 today it was not impressed. Would have loved to have known about it the first day! If you have girls.. you may get lucky… if you're shopping for boys, I wouldn't waste your trip.
Hey guys-OK, first let me apologize. I had no idea it would turn out this way and I feel horribly that you are disappointed. Lesson learned moving forward. Along these lines, as a mom of 2 boys and 2 girls, I always know if there is a sale, I'm probably not going to get as lucky with the boys stuff. That's just the nature of having boys! I know of a few Smarties who went today and had luck, even with a pair of boys shoes. With any warehouse sale, it's hit or miss. If you're going in looking for that specific shoe, you're probably not going to find it. At the same time, you'll probably find a few others that you didn't "need" but couldn't resist. Again, I apologize for disappointing a few of you. That certainly was not my intent.

Are you kidding me!? These ladies do a great job keeping us informed and were trying to help us all out with info about a great sale. None of you were hoodwinked. This sale just got very popular very early. Everyone wants and needs a deal these days. Freddie at Tootsies also has a great reputation and she and her staff are the reason many pay to shop at here store. Be thankful for the inforamtion and maybe you will have beter luck at the next sale! Thank you Smarty Pants and Tootsies for even letting us know that you were having a sale.
I thought the sale was great! I went this morning and got tons of shoes for my children, including brand new stride rite for $15. There were still hundreds of pairs there for sale at lunch time today. I'm not sure what people are complaining about.
Thank you CSP – I got three pairs of boys shoes today at lunch time for $60 – a pair of Ecco for $22, Hushpuppies for $6 and New Balance for $28 – no complaining here!!
