To find out which store offers the better incentive, we need to calculate the total costs including discounts from both Shoe Land and Everything Shoe.

Shoe Land BOGO Event: Buy 1, Get 2nd Pair 50% Off

  • First pair: $45
  • Second pair: $45 * 50% = $22.50
  • Total cost at Shoe Land: $45 + $22.50 = $67.50

Everything Shoe: 30% Off Any Pair of Shoes $35 or More

  • Regular price for each pair: $45
  • Discount on one pair: 30% of $45 = $13.50
  • Price after discount for one pair: $45 - $13.50 = $31.50
  • Total cost for two pairs: 2 * $31.50 = $63.00

Now we compare the two totals:

  • Shoe Land: $67.50
  • Everything Shoe: $63.00

The difference in total price is: $67.50 - $63.00 = $4.50

Thus, Everything Shoe offers a better incentive, and the difference in the discount amounts is $4.50.

Therefore, the correct option is: Everything Shoe offers a better incentive, and the difference in the discount amounts is $4.50.
