Eye Glasses by Warby Parker

Check out this website!
Warby Parker is a company started by four guys who are providing a no-nonsense way to buy prescription glasses without breaking the bank. I saw this on Daily Candy months ago and just spent 10 minutes looking for it so that I could work on a new pair before the next school year starts in August. (Mine are about, ohhhhh, 6 years old.)

Here are some highlights: (so exciting! thus the exclamation marks!)
Many frames are $95!
Lenses are FREE!
Shipping is FREE!
You can "try on" frames on the website by uploading your own smiling face! Look--here I am!  :)

You can try on frames at home for FREE! Five styles! Shipping them to you and back to them - FREE!
If you don't know your prescription, they will call your doc to find it.
It only takes 10 days or so to get your order.
If you don't like them when you get them, returns are FREE!
And the BONUS: For every pair you buy, they give a pair to someone! 
Here's an excerpt from their website about it:

"Every time you buy a pair of Warby Parker glasses, we make a donation to a renowned non-profit such as Restoring Vision, which enables them to give a pair of glasses away to someone who otherwise would not have access to glasses and therefore the ability to see and work. In doing so, we help you to give someone the gift of sight."

Yea for the non-20/20 population! We have a place to find some cute, hip, inexpensive eyeglasses. I'm excited for us! I'll put a photo up once I get mine...should be late August/September.

Very cool, Warby Parker!
