The black pair came from St. Vincents and were $4. They seem to have matte leather and a more 'hiking boot' sole than your average Docs. The purple(!) pair came from Value Village and were $13, but I had a gift card so technically they were free. They have been worn to shreds by someone else's foot but if it takes wearing some thick socks to get them broken into my feet then so be it. I cannot wait to line the two all up in a pretty row with my brown crocodile Docs once I get back to school.
*Tacky post title, yes. Please don't kill me.

I am jealous of your finds mostly because I have massive feet and shoes never fit me
Holy moly, two pairs of Docs from two thrift stores?! Lucky lucky girl.
Dr Martens will forever haunt my dreams.
Your post title is certainly better than, say, "Rock Around the Doc". But your day's finds certainly ROCK. I just love the high of treasure for peanuts, don't you?

Seriously - two pairs?? That fit you? That does merit a movie :)
i also found some purple docs in a thrift store a couple of weeks ago. but they were too big for me, so i gave them to my boyfriend for valentines day. he's worn them every day ever since : D
Wow great find! That's great that you were able to find some for so cheap! I'm jealous :)

I am so jealous, I need a pair of beat up doc martens..
i've been feeling the need for some country opshopping lately and this has just tipped me over the edge. my favourite small town for opshops run by old ladies where everything is $1 is wonthaggi....the name alone is kind of epic, i think you'll agree. wonthaggi. it's fun to say.

Ahhhh I thrifted black ones this week too! You have no idea how ecstatic I was, particularly when they fit. So jealous you got purple ones as well, look at you little lucky miss.
WTFFF! that is nutssss
Small Town Thrifts>Cool vintage stores.
Only because things are hilariously cheap, it's ridiculous. It's the only thing that keeps me sane in my town which is sooo very lacking in anything cool.
oh my god, your post sounds like it should be a fashion urban legend..so lucky..xx
