If you weren’t already aware of Zenni Optical, you should be. Glasses start at $8.95 a pair. You choose your frames, enter your prescription, select any extra (tinting, coating), and wait about two weeks. I’ve got vision insurance, which is nice, but I think I may take advantage of my free eye exam and just outsource the glasses.

Did I mention my sunglasses are broken? No? Really? Because I’ve told EVERYONE else.

(I should mention that I have colleagues who’ve been very happy with Zenni. I’m not pulling this one out of my butt.)
