TK Maxx shoppers divided by quirky £109 shoes for people ‘who don’t have a garden’

For some, Spring is all about daffodils and tulips, and getting back in the garden. However, if you don't have a garden (and you don't fancy a trip to the park) just how do you feel the grass between your toes? Never fear, a TK Maxx shopper has found the answer, and the solution may just surprise you.

While shopping at the discount retailer, which has stores in Nottinghamshire and the city, including Chilwell, Netherfield, Giltbrook, Newark and Mansfield, they spotted the solution. A pair of summer sandals complete with faux grass and flowers.

Taking a picture of the find, the shopper posted a picture of the grassy footwear in a Facebook group. A reporter at Manchester Evening News spotted the post on Extreme Couponing and Bargains Group page, and noted that the shoes had been reduced in the sale. The post quickly racked up thousands of likes and hundreds of comments overnight. However, opinion on the novel footwear was divided with people struggled to work out if they were the best, or the worst thing ever.
