My Free Glasses Are Here!

Hooray! I was looking forward to the possibility of these arriving all day at work, and when I got home I was not disappointed! Last week, I took advantage of Coastal Contacts Free glasses promotion. They have a huge selection of frames that qualify for the freebie and it includes basic lenses. I did spring a little extra for the glass coatings package (uv, anti-scratch, and non-glare), plus I had to pay the shipping and handling charges, but even after all that my new glasses only cost me $30.93! That is a steal of a deal for a pair of prescription glasses. Believe me - I just paid $122 for a pair with the same treatments to the lenses from my eye doctor and the frames were the same retail price as these! Yeah...

So, what do you think?

 I really like the detail on the sides :)

I honestly like them. I know they may not be everyone's cup of tea (in fact my dad and my uncle will absolutely hate them), but I'm really happy with them. They are similar to my favorite pair of glasses that were broken several years ago. Now I have my normal pairs of thin rimmed metal glasses from my eye doctor and my kinda funky thick plastic ones :)

I was also really impressed with the swag that came with these free glasses:

• Hard glasses case
• Soft glasses bag
• Lens cleaning cloth
• Double ended screw driver key chain (how cool is that?!)

I'm really very happy with these. What makes them even better is that Coastal Contacts has a 365 day 100% satisfaction guarantee. If I end up hating these for any reason, I can just send them back and pick a new pair :)

I will definitely post about Coastal Contacts freebies whenever they have this offer again. In the meantime, I highly recommend you get your prescription and pupilary distance out and ready so you are prepared when the time is right. Word to the wise: your normal prescription will not have your pupilary distance on it, you have to ask for it at your doctor's.

So, head over to Coastal Contacts Facebook page and 'like' them now so you can be notified when their next giveaway will be :) I'm so excited about mine, I know you will love yours too!
