We were at the eyeglass store today and everything was going well until the saleslady decided to get a little terse with us.
Chiliman was ready to walk!
Everything worked out and Chiliman ordered himself two new pair of glasses.
Now, I kept asking him why didn’t he want to save us a bunch of money and order some eyeglasses online? I mean it’s not that hard.
He finally relented, ‘after’ he ordered his two new pair, to try an order of prescription sunglasses from an online place.
It’s easy, no middleman, no retail overhead, NO TERSE SALESLADIES!
We’re going to try for a pair of very nice looking sunglasses with his script without a big outlay of funds. That way when he loses them (and we both know that happens, ESPECIALLY with sunglasses) we won’t be out of pocket too much.
I mean, yes, we have insurance that covers a portion, but you and I both know we ran through that at the eyeglass store!
This way, he’ll get exactly what he needs, and I can balance the budget.
I did have them look my account up. It seems that I haven’t ordered a new pair there since 2008. Guess that means it’s MY turn!
