So, roughly ten years ago, I smartened up and began to purchase them online. The money I save by purchasing them online is incredible. I have yet to get a bad lens, and I have yet to have a company not follow through on sending me the correct lenses. And no, I do not buy from 1-800-Contacts for the mere fact that if I were going to pay their price, I might as well buy them at my eye doctor’s office. And if you didn’t know…if you order contacts through Walmart…they utilize 1-800-Contacts.
Here’s what I do…I do a Google search for the brand of lens the eye doctor has prescribed for me. This year it happens to be Air Optix for Astigmatism. So that is what I did my search on. I clicked many links to see which site offered the best price, including the price comparison sites.
From my research, I discovered some websites only offer 3 lenses to a box rather than the usual 6. I also discovered many sites on the Net that are the cheapest aren’t US sites. Knowing this, I came to the decision that I didn’t want to purchase from a company that wasn’t US based even though I could save even more money by utilizing on of those websites. This decision is a personal decision. I just feel if I am putting these lenses in my eyes…how do I really know what those companies have to follow for guidelines in other countries. I surely don’t want some kind of foreign bacteria getting into my eyeballs!
Anyway, after coming up with a couple of sites that offered the best prices, I then checked to see if any of the click-thru shopping sites offered cash back on purchases from those sites. I did find one, however…I figured out for what I would get for cash back by buying through this one website, I would actually make out better by buying from a website that doesn’t participate in cash back shopping. In addition, I found an online coupon code for the website I was ordering from; plus, I got free shipping! And to sweeten the deal, I also made sure to order before the time frame was up for the manufacturer’s rebate…which in my case, the manufacturer required the lenses be ordered within 90 days from the eye exam.
So when all was said and done…I purchase a years supply of contact lenses for less than $24 a box, $95.40 for a years supply. If I had purchased from 1-800-Contacts I would have doled out $199.96 in the end for a years supply. I saved myself $104.56.
I’m very happy with my savings and can’t wait to get a new set of lenses in my eyeballs :-). I guess I won’t have to wait too long. They arrived in the mail today!

My son’s evening LNA of 17 yrs., was hospitalized Thursday and the docs aren’t even sure what she has. Blood cultures come back tomorrow and depending on what they show…she may have to have a spinal tap to rule out meningitis. I am so praying this isn’t the case. That’s all my son would need now. The Doc’s tell me it will be close to a year before he will fully recover from the post viral pneumonia which caused him to be intubated back in March. They also say he will be susceptible to other illnesses more so during this time.
I then get a call from the Home Health Agency…no LNA coming this weekend. All fine and good…except my son decided he was going on what I call ‘strike’ Saturday. This means he stops eating and drinking after the first meal of the day. I am hoping I don’t get a call from Easter Seals saying his day support person isn’t coming in on Monday. I could care less if he eats…he won’t starve to death by any means…but the not drinking is not good.
Okay…so then let’s add, one of my friend’s sons killed himself this past week with a gun shot to his head..which decapitated him. My friend was called over to his house to mediate a fight between her son and his wife and somewhere along the line, the fight escalated beyond no return. Not only did he kill himself; he killed his wife too. His mother saw the whole deal as did their two children, and niece and it was her who called the police when the fight went astray.
I can’t get out of my mind how his mother will have to live with this for the rest of her life. I can’t fathom the thought of what those little girls will remember and will have to live with…which two are old enough to do so. It’s just the unimaginable for any mother to have to witness something like that, as well as the young children. I feel bad her son was in such emotional turmoil…he was a VERY brilliant young man…why he chose that route no one will ever know. He came from a good home, he had two fabulous children, a great job and was full of life. I guess no one will ever understand and no one will ever have answers.
As for meeting my goal on catching me a trout this week…well I thought I had caught two last night! I was so excited until I got home and my bubble was burst. The fish weren’t trout they were pond shiners! I was so bummed. My daughter caught a trout though; and her friend, she caught a sucker fish. I didn’t even know we had these things around here but I surely do know…I will NOT be putting my feet in that river! What an ugly fish that thing is….check him out (click pic to enlarge):
During that same fishing excursion, my daughter befriended a snapping turtle. She named him Mossy. He had a very good dinner. I told her she could feed him a couple of worms…more like he ended up with 15!
Here’s to a great week for all of us!
