$32.99, Go Jane

Sitting courtside at the Lakers game a couple of months ago, Ms. Rihanna was spotted wearing her Ash "Spot" canvas sneaker heels. Those bad boys go for about $146, but get a similar look with the above pair from Go Jane! I'm kinda feelin' 'em. What do you think?

Would you dress in a cow costume for a free meal?

So Chick-fil-A is having their fifth annual Cow Appreciation Day tomorrow (7/10), and if you go in there dressed in a cow costume, you get a free meal. As much as I love Chick-fil-A, I don't think I'd want a meal that bad, but I'm interested in knowing how many people are going to do this. Would you dress up like a cow for a free meal?
