So I was in need for a new pair of glasses. I've had the same pair for 5 years, the prescription is old and the frames no longer fit. Needless to say I could not see properly and was living off my contacts. Anyways I found a groupon online for Vision express and could not pass it up.
I called in before to confirm how the groupon worked and the guy who answered the phone was super nice and explained exactly how it would work. I went in and I was the only customer in there but I expected that based on location and time. The guy working who's name I did not get got up and helped me immediately. Let me walk around and try on all the different pairs of glasses and find my own frame. He didn't try to push me or upsell me on the frames outside of my groupon. I told him I had a groupon and he was totally cool about it. He was super accommodating and patient with me.
It did kind of get awkward since I was the only one in there but he wasn't staring me down or anything. I'm just awkward.
There was a huge selection of different frames and brands. Prices for frames ranged from $200 up to $500. Then the lenses were another cost not covered by the groupon so I had to pay for that. The lenses ranged from 200-400 depending on your prescription.
All in all I found a pair of glasses I liked. Price was good especially with the groupon. Glasses should arrive in less than a week. Nothing to complain about ...yet. read more
