Like really it turns me off so much its not even funny ughh so how can i say nicely that i cant buy them for her w.o sounding like a *****

Answer 1

You could just tell her that you really can't buy the shoes for her for good reasonable excuses. Tell her that she is your friend but you just can't buy her the shoes. If she asks why, keep saying that you just can't. If it gets persistent, make an excuse like you don't have enough money to pay for it because your saving your money for something else and it's really worth it.

Answer 2

Call her up and tell her that you are really sorry but you have a lot going on and you don't think you'll have time to buy her sneakers! Just be really nice and polite, hopefully she will understand!

Answer 3

telll her : hey erm, can you ask someone else to buy for you? as i'm often treated as c**p receiver when i buy stuff for people. please understand, i'm not trying to be mean but i really can't do it for you. i'm really sorry, please understand."

straight cut, direct short.

hope it helps, good luck.

sorry if i didn't help.

Answer 4

i say buy them, but then REFUSE to giver them before she pays you. if she wont, then say you have absoloutly no problem on returning them.

Answer 5

Just simply tell her, sorry, but you don't feel comfortable, and tell her to get them where she's at.  

Answer 6

You can tell her than you are sorta low on cash right now. The only money you have is to take care of some business or you can buy it for her and not hand them over to her while she pays so it's like an exchange; she gives you the money and you hand her the sneakers at the same time. Keep the receipt though because if she aint got no money then you just take them back to the store. Some people just think they are smart. I know how you feel girl; been there done that.
