Free Glasses -- Again -- This Friday!

CoastalContacts.com is giving away another 10,000 pairs of free prescription glasses this Friday, Dec. 17, 2010. To get the freebie, like the retailer's Facebook fan page and click on the "FREE FOR ALL!!" tab. Then go to CoastalContacts.com, pick out a pair you like, and use the coupon code from Facebook to get the glasses for free.

You pay for shipping, which starts at about $10 to $15. Progressives, coatings, transitions, and tints are 50% off during the one-day promotion. Contacts are 10% off when you order glasses. I took advantage of a similar promotion last month and was extremely happy with the ordering process and the way my glasses turned out. Figuring out which size glasses I needed was particularly easy with Coastal Contacts.

If you must buy your glasses in person, here are the best places to buy glasses, including average price estimates.

Caveats: If you have already received a free pair of glasses through Coastal Contacts, you are not eligible for this promotion.

Check back later today and through the week for more great deals at WalletPop.
