They're wealthy. Some wealthy people buy $500 shoes.
Some people shop at Pennies and some people shop at Saks.
Really? I didn't know that. Personally I think it is disrepsectful to go to a shelter wearing $570 tennis shoes. It's not like she was going to a Ball or a formal event that she would wear $570 shoes....this was her passing out food to homeless. It was just insulting as far as I am concerned. And BTW, Saks doesn't sell $570 tennis shoes.
Thanks for telling me people shop at different stores. I had no idea!

It's OK.
She took the price tag off them before she went to the shelter so no one got their feelings hurt.
Newsmax.com - Michelle Obama Wants More Influence on President's Agenda (http://www.newsmax.com/insidecover/michelle_obama_role/2009/06/26/229323.html - broken link)
For those who are strong enough to handle unbiased information, this WaPO article seems to be the one the merry editors at NewsMax chose to tease the sheep with.
The irony is, until her husband's election as President, Michelle still did a lot of her shopping at Target!
