$8 prescription glasses
I wasn't sure where to post this, so figured this was as good a place as any. Since people I know in real life are always asking me where I get my glasses so cheap, I just thought to post this. Anyway I have the best website for getting cheap RX glasses & sunglasses. They even have those glasses that are like Transcriptions. I have only ordered 3 pairs so far, but I plan to order more. All three pairs that I have gotten have been perfect. They ship pretty quickly with a hard case and cleaning cloth for each. The shipping rate is $5 flat no matter how much you order. All you need is a copy of you prescription which you enter on the website. You can google reviews for them and I have found more positive than negative.

I am sure at least some if not all of you probably know about this place, but I figured I'd share it just in case.

I am glad you posted this. I went to the site a few weeks ago and looked around and decided to do it for myself.
I am taking dd and I to get our eyes checked and buying dds glasses at walmart. She needs titanium and being 13 almost 13 she is concered about how they look and fit and I can understand that so she needs to try on hers.
Me, I am all over ordering from Zenni. I didn't know if it was going to workout but I was willing to gamble.
Once again THANKS for posting that you use them and are happy with them. It makes me feel better about my choice to use them.The math never lies, budget in INK!

I love Zenni. I have bunches of pairs from them, regular and sunglasses. I have been happy with all but one pair of them. The only ones that I would advice against is the hingeless rimless pair with the memory plastic arms and nose, I got the one that is clear and is suppose to be a virtually invisible pair and they were crooked on my face and I have never been able to get them to sit straight. Other than that one pair though, every single pair has been perfect. I would advice if you find a frame that you really love that you order several pairs in it. I have a frame that I love and kept thinking I need to order this in other colors and I procrastinated until they sold out of the frame.

I love zenni too and plan to buy my next pair of glasses from them. Mine came in the time stated and looked a lot better than the pic. The pic looked like they were plastic-looking. Actually they look better than my last pair that I paid ~$150 for. I took them to my eye doc and the rx is right. He was good enough to fill out the form for me when I ordered.

I think this will come in handy especially with DD's glasses. One pair at home, one at my ex's, one at her grandparents and one for school... all for less than the one pair she has now!
She only needs them for reading so she has a tendency to forget them here.
I can't be out of money... I still have checks left!

And if you need cheap reading glasses try Target for a buck in the front specials bins.
