I Can See Clearly Now

Nope,  not because the rain is gone!(It’s actually been snowy rain, yuck!)

BUT! Because I finally got my eyes checked and got glasses! I got glasses when I was 13, that excitement was short lived and I hardly wore them. I knew my eyes were pretty bad, but they were even worse than I thought…..hehe, oops. Guess that happens when you don’t get them tested for a dozen or so years.

We picked up my glasses on Friday and OMG!! The world was once dull and blurry, it is now clear and sparkly! I cannot believe the difference!! I was to the point that I couldn’t even read the guide on the TV from the sofa anymore….on the weekend I was reading the score of the Football game from the Dining Room…which is on the opposite side of the house!!

See my cool pink glasses(excuse the grainy webcam snapshot LOL)….my husband picked them out!

After I ordered them from Walmart to try and get something cheap I found out about a website here in Canada that I could order them from for CHEAP!! I know I’ve done posts on Zenni Optical in the US before, but not knowing if or what I would get dinged for duty on them I opted not to order from there for now. But this other site is here in Canada, so no worries about duty, AND they have a 30 day 100% money back guarantee…and you don’t even have to pay for 15 days. I could have got 2 pairs from this site for what I paid for my glasses from Walmart…even though Walmart was WAY cheaper than anywhere in town I knew of. So I ordered some prescription sunglasses from the website. For $98 I got a pair of Carolina Herrera frames that normally retail for $400. For $98 I got the frames, upgraded to tinted lenses, and shipping….and I got them 3 days after I ordered them! I was totally impressed! I’ve tried them on and they seem fine, the prescription seems the same as these glasses.

And NO, this is not any sort of paid post or anything like that. But if anyone reading this is in Canada and you need glasses or contacts you might want to check out their site, it’s www.clearlycontacts.ca . I get nothing for you visiting there, I just like sharing good deals with other people :).

Hey, I think I’m slightly improving on how often I post to my blog! Still have a long way to go to post even close to as much as I used to, but hey, at least I’m better than I was for a while! :)
