bit of a pickle

so i have been lusting after these fluevog shoes for ages. and what do you know...they went on sale--and they have my size. here is the dilemma:
1. we have no cash flow coming in right now
2. the shoes are 161 after shipping
3. i would have to have them shipped to my parent's house (and get them when they come out here).
4. i feel like i would be depriving dust of something if i got these new beautiful shoes.

but i really love them. they are purple and aqua mary janes with a one inch heel (which is nothing). dust says i can get them and save some tax money, or just find a way to cut 161 dollars out of my daily routine. that sounds good, but i only spend money on food now as it is. so i am at a loss. do i quit eating and buy the shoes (that always gets my vote), or do i pretend to be a good little wife and pass on the dream shoes? i have decided to sleep on it. and make my decision tomorrow. leave comments as to what you would do. any help is good help. i think i know i should pass on the shoes, but it makes me so sad to do that. i wish they had gone on sale while we were working. dust said it was only a day and a part's worth of work. but we are on vacation. man, this married life is not all it is cracked up to be (financially speaking only--everything else is better than i ever could have hoped). but i really feel like if i get the shoes i will be depriving dust of something. so that is hard. but i do really want the shoes. what would you do?
here is the link to the shoes incase that sways your vote:

Those shoes are cute! I'm not going to tell you what to do. But if Dustin doesn't care, you shouldn't feel bad if you do get them. Just eat ramen for a week instead of take out and you're golden.
