I found my shoes for about $25. The salesperson gave me her store discount, so I got them for less than $20.
I wanted purple shoes and I order mine from Payless. They are dyeables and with a 20% promotion, I got them for under $40 with tax and shipping. I just got them the other day and they are so pretty!!!!!
No way was I going to spend a ton of money on shoes. My money has so many other places to go!
I absolutely LOVE shoes, but usually don't spend more than $100 or so on a pair.
For my wedding I was thinking I wanted a pair of Manolos or something equivalent that I'd not only wear for my wedding but for years after.
In my first outing looking for wedding dresses, I didn't find my dress, but I found my shoes.
They were $600 Oscar de la Renta shoes. We got a 10% discount by opening a Sak's card and while I couldn't believe I was going to have shoes that cost that much, my mom loved them and insisted that they were the shoes (and bought them for me).
I cannot wait to wear them at my wedding and for years after.
@KatNYC2011: I'm incredibly jealous. I've been trying to search for good quality shoes for less than $150 and its impossible.. I keep pulling up pictures of $500+ shoes to see what Kingy says.. he is not impressed haha
I found a pair of Ninas that I LOVE at Marshalls for $29.99 I think. I was hoping to stay under $50 but really thought I'd end up at about $75 so I felt it was a win!
@kingytobe: A lot of Menburs are around that price and I've heard they are really comfy.
My shoes just kind of came to me. They were the only pair left not only in the bridal salon but in all of Sak's in NYC. They were my size and they fit perfectly.
Admittedly, I am a bit of a shoe freak. When I was younger, I was totally into however many shoes I could get my hands on, but as I've gotten older, I find myself investing more money into pricier items (shoes, bags, and clothes). I guess I'm more quality conscious these days, but I will never turn down a great pair from Payless or Target. My shoe closet ranges from $5 to $900, the latter being my wedding shoes, a pair of blue suede Louboutins. It was my splurge 
<-----I also went slightly "nuts" to buy my dream wedding shoes for $280. I started out with a budget of $100, and then one day these Kate Spades were posted online and my brain started churning for where I could fork out another $180. :) At least they're not the $775 Manolos I wanted to begin with and knew I couldn't afford (I love the Kate Spades more!).
Mine were $65. I love shoes, but usually only by from Target, Payless or Nine West Outlet for most things. I would've spent more for wedding shoes if I had found what I wanted... but I'm good with my $65 spend on them - I'll be able to wear them after the wedding as well.
I paid about $170 for my ceremony shoes (BM Randalls) and am looking for something a bit cheaper (under $100) for my reception. I'm also a bit of a shoe-a-holic but try to stay under $100 normally.. unless it's boots.
A ridonkulous amount. I splurged on a pair of Manolos....yes, I love them, but I kind of wish that a) I had gotten less expensive shoes, or b) I had gotten the same shoes in a more rewearable color (I have them in royal blue)..
I got these babies at Neiman Marcus. I wanted to splurge but not too much. I absolutely adore them!
I was a two shoe bride and although I don't remember exact prices, each pair was around $75 so I spent around $150 total on wedding shoes.
Mine were on sale for just under $50 for a pair of Steve Madden flat peeptoes from DSW, the regular price was $110, so I felt good about getting that deal
I got mine on sale at Sears for $22. I wasn't even shoe shopping, just cutting through the store to get to were I was parked. Out of the corner of my eye I saw lime green sandals. Made FI stop and go look and they were exactly what I wanted. Flats and lime green. They didn't have a sale sign on them and regular price they were $35 and I thought that was great.
I don't usually spend a lot on shoes but I was going to be willing to go to $75 to get what I wanted. So this made me super happy.
These are my shoes. They were on sale at Nordstrom for 40% off (originally $215). Total was $135 but also had a $100 giftcard I received from Christmas so I ended up paying $35.

I got an amazing deal on a pair of Jimmy Choos ($350), so I'm really excited. I didn't plan on spending more than $200 but I'm really happy with them so it is all good.
Usually I spend around $100 or less on shoes if they are for occasional wear, but for my everyday flats I invest a bit more, so around $160-200. Shoes from payless atrget etc tend to hurt my feet after a while, so I don't bother with those anymore.
I usually spend less than $100 on shoes (but am a bit of a shoe freak, own over 100 pairs), but wanted something really special for the wedding. My Valentino's were 40% off at Bergdorf Goodman, but still around the $350 mark. I love them though, and I will wear them again, they're the perfect red accent to a little black dress.
$30 with a $10 off coupon and I love them! I was willing to pay up to $80, but no more than that. I'm just not really a shoe person.
$59.99. I was willing to spend more, but found these and they were perfect!
Two pairs- both were Aris Allens and just under 50 because I bought them as "seconds" of sorts at the warehouse outlet as opposed to ordering them through a dance store or online.
But one I bought two years ago and will be wearing for years to come, allowing they don't fall apart from the abuse I've put them through. The other pair I'm not supposed to wear that often because of the strain it puts on my joints and the increased likelihood of rolling my ankle (again) and messing up my knee (again).
My shoes were orginially $85 at DSW, but I used all of my DSW gift cards collected over the past couple birthdays that I never used which brough them down to $20!
Mine were about $110 with shipping and tax, but they may not fit because they sold out of my size! *cries*. If they don't fit. Mr. Backup shoe is closer to $200.00
I'm not overly a shoe person as long as they go with what I want to wear them with and they're comfy I'm happy. Though...for my wedding I've splurged. These are £75 / $122 and I've got to break them in as they're pointy they hurt my toes, but I'm determined as they go perfectly with my dress
I'm all over the place with shoes. I have a lot of cheapies that are actually my favorites and have lasted. My work heels usually cost more and I'll splurge here and there for more expensive shoes.
I have 2 pairs for the wedding - a pair of heels and a pair of flats. They were around $130ish each, iirc. They're the type of shoes that I will wear alot and for a long time.
I really wanted to buy a pair of expensive shoes, but couldnt justify the $900 cost with other priorities we've laid out for after the wedding.
@Oneeleven:I love those! I have been eyeing those at Nords for a few months now - along with a few other pairs :) I just love that color.

I have never been an expensive shoe person. I usually get mine on sale at Kohl's or at Payless. I found some on clearance at Sears for $8 like 6 months ago, but I'm dieing to find some blue shoes. I ordered a couple pairs from Endless, so I'll have poll to decide when they arrive.)
But in the mean time, I was wondering how much everyone else was spending. Are you a big, expensive shoe collector? Do you usually go budget, but splurged for the wedding? Any other shoe habits you'd like to share?
