I Bought My Eyeglasses for $25!
Happy Hump Day!!
As many of you know I wear glasses...uh duh!! Well many of you may not know that I wear my glasses 80% of the time, contacts and I just don't mix. In April I bought a new pair of glasses from my eye doctor & so far they have broken twice on me - not cool!! I've always been super careful with glasses since I've been wearing them since I was 7 so I knew it was the glasses and not me. After my glasses broke the second time I decided I needed to find a cheap back up pair. I browsed the Internet for some options and I came across a website called - http://www.coastalcontacts.com/.
I decided to buy a cheaper test pair first just to see if I liked the quality and to see if the website was legit.
The pair I'm wearing in the picture below are from Converse, and the total price I paid for them was $25 (included shipping). The frames were $7, I'll give you a moment to absorb that...yes $7!! The lenses were $20, I came across a few discounts online and that's how I only ended up paying $25.
I love these glasses!! I seriously think they are my favorite pair I have ever owned - they are sturdy & cute. You would never know the price I paid for these if I didn't tell you, the quality is amazing!!
So after I bought my first pair I decided to added another set to my collection. The glasses below are by Halston and the frames were $20 and the lenses were again $20. I wasn't able to get a very good close up of these glasses, but they are tortoise shell and they are beautiful.
Note: The price of lenses of vary based on your Rx. Please be sure to have a valid Rx when ordering from this site.
This is the discount I used when placing my first order - Use code CABINOCT for 15% off of your order, for new customers only. Expires Oct 31, 2010.
I just thought I would share the website love in case any of you are looking for a new pair of glasses.
Thanks for reading!

Nice specs!
ReplyDeleteI have a very small head so have to trawl though so many shops to find a pair that is not too wide. My prescription is diabolical so the lenses are so expensive it hurts. :(
Nice buys m'lady!
Wow, that is a steal!
ReplyDeletelove both of the frames you chose - the 2nd pair looks really cute on you :)
ReplyDeletemy disgustingly high prescription would still cost a pretty penny on that sight, but it looks like I'd save a decent amount of money...I'll have to try it out next year when I get another eye exam :)
Great deals!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for this!! Ive been wantong to buy backup glasses...both pairs look so pretty on you :D
ReplyDeletethats a brillant price!!!
ReplyDeletemy nose is flat and difficult to fit glasses on so i dont know how to buy them online. but u did great!!
I have ordered my contacts from them several times and NEVER noticed they sold glasses, OMGosh!!! I pay $600 every time i buy glasses. (I'm a -10) blind as heck! so i'm gonna contact them to see if they carry hi-index lenses (which is what costs $300-$500)...thank you for the post, doll!
