This Woman Has Been Receiving Random Shoe Deliveries For Almost A Year
Imagine receiving free shoes delivered right to your front porch for over a year. Sounds like the dream, right? But, there’s a catch.
A woman named Simone Boutet from Oak Park, Illinois has been receiving an endless flow of “really tacky” shoes for almost a year now. She shared her puzzling situation with the world in a hilarious Facebook post.
“UPS has been delivering other people’s shoes to me that are apparently being returned to Amazon. I have tried and tried to get them to cut it out, but this glitch is stuck. I am condemned to this fate forevermore,” Simone wrote.
After sharing her debacle, Simone detailed the bizarre shoe delivery she came home to that day.
“Today’s delivery was six pairs of size thirty-four boots, including two of the exact same go-go boots. These are several fashion choices for if you were a game show contestant in 1974,” Simone joked.
Understandably, these kicks are not her style. And, since her quest to stop the deliveries has failed, she issued a plea to the mysterious shoe senders.
“Can you please tell these shoppers that I am a size eleven, and I tend to wear ugly-ish left-wing shoes like Birkenstocks and hiking boots?” Simone said.
Her Facebook post amused the online community to no end.
“This is HILARIOUS! How annoying for you, but seriously funny!” commented one user.

“Are you sure you are not a customer for a drag show?” joked a second user.
One month later, Simone blessed the feeds of Facebookers with yet another shoe update. This time, she commended UPS for their prompt service– not in stopping the delivery errors but picking them up.
“The good thing about my unwanted shoe saga is that UPS is so prompt in coming to get them. Usually, a driver shows up within ten minutes of a call. Love their drivers!” Simone said.
Yet again, Simone also included more photos of two more unexpected pairs. This time, she received shiny black platform boots covered in buckles and chains. These edgy boots were delivered alongside baby pink buckle flats.
“Talk about two completely different styles!” one Facebook user commented, followed by a laughing emoji.
Clearly, she has managed this mysterious address mix-up with a positive attitude and a healthy dose of humor.
