    I need to buy new contact lenses. Any deals out there? They are wicked spendy.

    I always get my contact lenses from Costco. If you have a membership there, it might be convenient for you. I usually get Focus brand disposable 2 week lenses, and you can get one box of 6 for around 14 dollars. If both your eyes are different, 2 boxes for around 28 bucks isn't bad. They usually last between 2-3 months.

    Something along those lines...

    Over at Sam's Club, Acuvues (monthly disposables) are around $15 for 6 pack. If you can wait a week or so, you can get 20% off of that just by ordering the $50 gift cards (with $10 off $50 coupon) from walmart.com.

    i usually use www.contacts.com

    they get them to me in a few days and cost about $15. free shipping if you order online i think (i don't remember cuz it's been a few months since i ordered). they don't follow up on the prescription deal tho, cuz it's supposed to expire and i am still using my old prescription from 2 yrs ago. i know, i know....i do plan on getting another exam soon.

    FYI disposable contact lenses and regular lenses are exactly the same. So you could stretch out the life of your disposables by cleaning and disinfecting like regular daily wears.

    Thanks for posting this site. I need to order more contacts sometime this month.

    Any of you ever shopped with WebLens.com, ContactLensStore.com or LensMart.com?

    Ya..thanks for the site...

    Can I cross my OptimaFW prescription to an AcuviewII? If I go to a place that doesn't check my prescription, I may try it. Anyway tried this? I assume the power/curvatture is the same in both lenses.
