Our 8 Favorite Flip Flops That Won’t Flip Flop Your Budget
Summer? Is that you?!
If you’re anything like me, you’ve got a pedicure lined up now that warm weather has finally arrived. And what goes hand-in-hand (er… foot-in-foot?) with pedis — flip flops! We asked the Hip2Save team and readers for their absolute FAVORITE pairs that’ll give you happy feet all summer long even on a budget.
As you likely know, not all flip-flops are created equal, so while you can score them for a buck at Old Navy and Dollar Tree, it was our goal to give you higher end options that’ll be much more onlinefy and long lasting than the cheapest options on the market!
Read on for our foot and wallet-friendly picks!
