Out of two brothers, a sister and my parents and I, I’m the only one in the family who doesn’t have glasses or contacts and my wife Amy has glasses and Emma has been told that she’ll have them before she goes to school. So far I’ve been lucky, however, thats going to change as soon as Emma starts picking her own eyeglasses. luckily there’s a place that can help (and I don’t mean costco or lenscrafters). I mean Zenni Optical.

Zenni has been around for a while and Clark Howard has mentioned them several times on his show. I finally took a look the other day after Amy mentioned the possibility of needing new glasses (she needs new contacts) and was surprised with what I saw. Their prices start at eight dollars a pair and go up from there, but you can get a good pair for around $15 (almost a third of what it would cost elsewhere!). The glasses apparently receive good recomendations from almost anyone who orders them, though the customer service is a little lacking (but then again, you’re getting quality glasses for cheap!)

I bet you won’t find that pair of Fork eyeglasses at Zenni Optical but you’ll probably find a pair that you’d actually wear in public.
