New Glasses

Right after graduation, about 5 years ago, I got glasses.  Basically I was told that I didn't need them except for working on the computer or driving.  It was a really weak prescription, so I wasn't great at wearing my glasses, I didn't feel like I needed them much.  I purchased 7 pairs at http://www.zennioptical.com for less then 7 bucks a piece.  I got so many different ones because I didn't know what ones I would like the best.  Not being able to try on glasses is a problem, how will they look on your face? During harvest, I wore glasses a lot, and my kids kept getting a hold of them and broke 4 of my pairs, my favorite ones.  I new it was high time I got my eyes checked, but I kept putting it off I hate those dang exams.

On Halloween, I got my glasses ordered.  This time around I only ordered 3.  Sadly my favorite pair had been discontinued, so I was worried how these new ones would fit my face.  Today, I got them in the mail and tried them on.  Surprisingly, they are all very similar.  I am not sure I love them either, I guess I can always order more.  Their quality was never an issue, but I noticed that the quality has actually improved over the years, and they are still the same great $6.99 and up.

My eyes have gotten a lot worse and I need to be better at wearing glasses.  I am a little bit disoriented and hope it gets better.

So, if you are more on the frugal side, this is the best way to save money on glasses.  They have kids ones too, so those people with kids in glasses, buy a few so when they get lost you have a spare.   They start at 6.99, the black ones and the black and yellow ones were 6.99.  The pink and black ones were 14.99 if I recall.  You pay one flat rate shipping fee.
