Last week I ordered 4 pairs of shoes........a penny in one of them..

from shoebuy.com. Received 2 today. One was a pair of Dr. Martens. Found a penny in the right shoe. Is this good luck? Or do I have to return the penny?

It wouldn't be worth returning the penny, but might not have anything to do with luck. Then again, I consider it good luck if shoes I ordered actually fit.

especially these being UK sized & I've lost a lot of weight that has decreased my size a bit. These 2 pair (the other is Euro sized) fit, but I will wear them around the house a few days to make sure.

What's nice about this site is that shipping is free & if they need to be returned, that is also free shipping. Also nice is that they usually have a discount, I caught these on a flash 25% off. The Euro sized shoes were originally $99.99, were on sale for $39.99 and add 25% off, they came down to $32.01.

And I'm keeping the penny.
