Up to 75% Off for Bulk Beads & Jewelry Making Supplies

For bargain-conscious parents, buying cheap kids tennis shoes is practical. After all, the kids probably won’t be able to wear the shoes in a year’s time, due to growth and other factors. Spending a lot of money on children’s shoes just isn’t part of the frugal parent’s plan.

Stores that carry lower-priced or cheap kids tennis shoes include:

Payless

Rack Room Shoes

Shoe Carnival

Rack Room Shoes and Shoe Carnival also stock popular brands like Nike, Reebok, and Adidas. Don’t forget to check your mail or newspaper for flyers and coupons, especially when it’s close to the back-to-school season. That’s one time of year when stores want to move merchandise, so they offer discounts to get you in the door. Take advantage of sales, but don’t fall for 2-for-1 specials if you really only need one. A good tactic is to gather all flyers together and go through them to see what’s available and what your child likes. If you want to comparison shop without leaving the house, a site like NexTag lists available brands and the prices offered by each seller.

Persuading Kids to Wear Them

A lot of children today are heavily influenced by the media and their peers. If a certain celebrity endorses a $150 sneaker, kids are going to want it. Not everyone can afford or is willing to shell out that kind of money on kids’ shoes. Some parents don’t want their children to absorb the message that only the external matters and the more expensive it is, the better. After years of news stories about kids being hurt or even killed over sneakers, NBA player Stephon Marbury joined forces with Steve & Barry’s University Sportswear to promote sneakers that cost less than $15. Steve & Barry hopes that with the publicity and support of Marbury for the “Starbury One,” parents and kids will see that there are alternatives to the high-priced Air Jordans of yesterday. There’s no need to break the bank when buying shoes for your kids. The less expensive brands don’t have to look like cheap kids tennis shoes, with the technology going into footwear today. You might also reason with your children that they can buy two pairs of shoes instead of just one if they go with cheaper options. The older kids become, the more input they’ll want to have, but if you teach them about the value of money and that brand names aren’t synonymous with cool, they’ll be more willing to bargain, and bargain shop, with you.
