Good news: There's more high-end shoe sample sales to come after this week. (The bad news: You are maybe broke and almost definitely out of closet space after this week.) Mizhattan is reporting that Sophia Webster has its sale on the calendar for Sunday, December 6th — yes, we're talking about December already — but is running things a little bit differently this time, because last year was apparently a mob scene.

Rather than wait in a crazy line, shoppers need to register for a 45-minute time slot on this site. That 45 minutes includes the whole schlep of shopping, from checking your coat and bag to paying at the registers. And the shopping blog reports that these spots are going fast: The shopping blog says that this sale spans the weekend, but as of this writing there are only slots left on Sunday. The TL;DR? Grab yours now. Check out the Dealfeed below for more details.
