I'm a cheap Asian... plus like @pastemoo said, 20 minutes one way isn't that long (but then again, I don't have my LO yet, so it might feel a lot longer with a baby in the car). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-drive-40mins-round-trip-for-one-lost-shoe#post-218742 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 15:00:45 +0000 MrsBrewer 218742@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, I forgot my purse (I know WAAAYY different but still) I left it at a truck stop once, and we had to drive an hour and a half there and back, so 3 hours total! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-drive-40mins-round-trip-for-one-lost-shoe#post-218714 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 14:39:48 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 218714@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would no matter what they cost. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-drive-40mins-round-trip-for-one-lost-shoe#post-218705 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 14:33:19 +0000 birdofafeather 218705@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i would if i spent $40 on kid shoes! i thought you were talking about your shoes! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-drive-40mins-round-trip-for-one-lost-shoe#post-218686 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 14:19:35 +0000 sulli301 218686@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You sound just like me! I hate when a piece of one of DDs toys is missing &amp; a missing shoe drives me crazy as well! I would drive back or replace them, depending on which was cheaper gas wise. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-drive-40mins-round-trip-for-one-lost-shoe#post-218595 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 13:24:32 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 218595@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would!

They're so cute! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-drive-40mins-round-trip-for-one-lost-shoe#post-218045 Wed, 11 Jul 2012 21:43:45 +0000 pastemoo 218045@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>20 minutes away is NOTHING where I live. I would drive 20 minutes one way if I thought I might have left it there, and wouldn't even be upset if it turned out to be in the car the whole time.</p> <p>But I used to drive over an hour each way to work, and my grocery store is even a drive...</p> <p>It's all about how far you usually drive for things.</p> <p>BUT, like @lydg said, I might wait until another day if the restaurant said it was there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-drive-40mins-round-trip-for-one-lost-shoe#post-218022 Wed, 11 Jul 2012 21:03:02 +0000 MsLipGloss 218022@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep - I totally would have gone back (and I live in Atl, so I know the kind of traffic you're talking about!). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-drive-40mins-round-trip-for-one-lost-shoe#post-218011 Wed, 11 Jul 2012 20:33:54 +0000 matador84 218011@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd probably just get them another day when/if I was in the area. I used to work in a restaurant and people would leave all kinds of stuff...usually we'd just hang onto it until they came to get it if they said they would. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-drive-40mins-round-trip-for-one-lost-shoe#post-217996 Wed, 11 Jul 2012 20:05:22 +0000 tequiero21 217996@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i would, but i know my husband would not want me to. he'd offer to pay me $40 to stay home lol. he always says stuff like that. like when i want to recycle cans for money. "i'll give you $5 - just throw them out"...</p> <p>and btw, $40 for shoes??? i hope she gets good wear out of them!</p> <p>btw, saw the pic above, SO CUTE! lucky no one took it. but i guess who would take just 1 shoe? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-drive-40mins-round-trip-for-one-lost-shoe#post-217976 Wed, 11 Jul 2012 19:27:56 +0000 mediagirl 217976@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For a $40 shoe, heck yeah. I drove 60 minutes round trip for a robe my mom left at a hotel once. She loved that robe so much. Haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-drive-40mins-round-trip-for-one-lost-shoe#post-217968 Wed, 11 Jul 2012 19:25:45 +0000 chopsuey 217968@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: ugh!

I probably wouldn't have been able to sleep in peace knowing they were there too. HAHA. Happy I have them back!</p> <p>@NYCaliMama: I would have gone tomorrow, but I wanted her to wear them to our morning play date tomorrow. </p> <p>These are the shoes!

I'm not sure I'd spend $40 on shoes to begin with.... so I'd probably leave them.
