Shoes!
Oh how I hate buying shoes! I am a size 8 and although this is now a very common size shops still only get one pair of 8s per style so if you don't get there straight away (and who wants to buy sandals when there is snow on the ground) you've got no chance.

Also with heel hights - they are either to high to walk in or tendon-acheingly (?) flat with no support whatsoever.
