Wednesday Freebies: Eyewear with Gifts

For those of us who wear prescription glasses one thing is for sure: a good pair of glasses does not come cheap. Sure, you can buy the +1 at the gas station for 10 bucks, but you know that they’re gonna scratch up quick, or break, or magically get lost underneath the seat of your truck. Good glasses are an investment, so it’s worth giving some thought to where you want to buy them from, and why. Online glasses retailers compete for your business with a number of different methods, focusing heavily on price, free shipping, and… free gifts. Everyone loves a free gift, and if you have to get yourself a new pair of specs anyway, why not get something extra for your troubles?

At GlassesUSA.com they offer some basic freebies, which are made vastly more attractive with some very handy

Must Stop for Vintage Clothing Enthusiasts

I’d like to take a minute to share my new favorite online shopping spot with all of you.  Thanks to coupon-gurus.com I stumbled upon ModCloth, a site completely devoted to stylish and affordable Indie and Vintage Clothing.  I’m obsessed with their dresses, but they have everything under the sun including swimwear, shoes, accessories, outerwear and even home decorations.  New items are added daily and go quickly, so it pays to check their selection fairly often to make sure that you don’t miss out. 

I just recently purchased an adorable sundress and a 50’s inspired sleeveless dress that I can’t wait to wear to my friend’s wedding, and I saved a total of $20 off my $100 order by combining this 15% Discount Code with $5 off my purchase of $15 or more.  Plus, since my order was over

Designer Jeans Don’t Have to Break Your Wallet

A good pair of jeans is a good investment.  Given my budget and rather frugal upbringing (my parents repeated Benjamin Franklin’s famous statement “a penny saved is a penny earned” like a mantra), I had always tried to find the cheapest pair of jeans that fit reasonably well and didn’t look awful.  That was until that fateful day when I tried on a pair of designer jeans—just for fun of course—and unfortunately for my wallet, that kind of comfort can never be sacrificed again.  Although if you think about it, paying more for a good quality pair of jeans that are designed to withstand the daily wear and tear is a much better investment than buying cheaper and poorer quality jeans more often.
