Eyeglasses for $6.95

I kid you not. I found an online store that sells eyeglasses for as low as $6.95!!!

I realized the other day that I need back-up lenses for the office. From time to time, I forget my glasses at home. Then, I get to work and can't see a thing, and it ends up costing me a lot of squinting and valuable work time wasted. So I decided I wanted to purchase an extra pair for emergencies. The only problem: Hello, Christmas--I have no business spending $200 or more on a new pair of eyelgasses.

I did a long tail search and found EyeBuyDirect.com where cute eyeglasses start at $6.95. Believe it! If you're a bit of a label whore though, there are designer ones on the site by Diesel, Giorgia Armani (pictured) and French Connection UK for only $99.95 each (still a fraction of what they cost elsewhere). When you visit the site to make a purchase, just have your eyeglass prescription ready.
