Chaunce

Yup, that's why I have it marked Active

jimmyongah

just did 3 and another past c/i still can't unlock :(

Chaunce

It is unlocking, I assumed that it was another Expertise badge. It may have different directions

RainWave23

I don't think it's an expertise badge. I've checked into 15 total shoe stores and no level up

godgila81

@godgila81 can't see what venue your friend c/i at to unlock this badge because he c/i there by off the grid; how do you know?

godgila81

jimmyongah

@godgila81 it says
Mayor: Sam T.
0 checkins in last 60 days

godgila81

add him as a friend to see how good he's good at cheating.. xD

Sacramento

i need just one hit to unlocked that "KICK"

RainWave23

@godgila81 they probably changed the venue category, check in, got the badge, then changed it back

jimmyongah

@RainWave23 but the venue doesn't have shoe store category just College Cafeteria, Voting Booth; still he can delete the category then change back to another after he got the badge right?

Sacramento

use your originally venues that you have been created..go to categories-edit-shop and service-clothing shop-shoe store....try this! :)

neiceek

godgila81

Beerknurd

Bren

15 checkins 1 day no previous checkins at shoe stores oddly enough... and my last checkin for unlock was at a store called "Crocs"... lol

vivi_lady

i've got badge in https://foursquare.com/user/2143948/badge/4f1fbf3f7beb96d5dfdd1161 thank you for your information neiceek :)

neiceek

welcome @vivi_lady

satori_hanzo

It must be different venues? Necessary?

Tymora

@satori_hanzo no. I got mine by with 9 previous checkins at the same venue then did 6 additional in 1 night, but usually only one checkin at a venue per day will count so if you use the same venue it will take you 15 days instead of the 1 day it would take you to get it using 15 different venues

Howdy, Stranger!
