FREE Glasses Again on 12/9: 1st 10,000 New York State Residents (& More States to Come!)
If you missed out on the free glasses offer from Coastal Contacts last month and you live in New York state, you now have another chance to snag a free pair! (And if you live in a different state, keep in mind that Coastal Contacts plans to give away 10,000 free pairs of glasses state by state so your state might be next! 😀 ).
If you live in New York state, here’s what you need to do to increase your chances of snagging free glasses…
* Head over to the Coastal Contacts Facebook page now, “like” them and click on the “New York 10K” button (remember, the coupon code will not be valid until December 9th at 9AM EST)
* Then head over to CoastalContacts.com and pick out your favorite frames (try to find between 3-5 frames that you would be happy with since many styles are sure to sell out quickly). You may even want to bookmark these pages so that you’re prepared tomorrow.
* Then just be sure to schedule time to hang out in front of the computer tomorrow at 9AM EST (and keep in mind that I’ll be sure to remind you tomorrow morning as well)
Giveaway Details/Rules
(To see the giveaway rules, click the link below “Read More / Post Your Comments”.)
* Only the first 10,000 people will be able to use the coupon code to snag a FREE pair of glasses including the frame and standard 1.5 index lenses (note: you will need to pay shipping/handling charges will usually range between $10-$15). Keep in mind that if you have received a free pair of glasses from Coastal Contacts before, then you are not eligible for this promotion; limit one free pair per household.
* This promotion is valid for web orders in New York state only. If you need help with your web order, call the optical staff at 1-866-333-6888.
* Certain frames are NOT eligible for the promotion. If you see a “Coupons not applicable” message on a pair of frames, then it is excluded from the promotion.
* You will need a copy of your current eyeglasses prescription (it’s different from your contact lens prescription) and your PD measurement. Sometimes your PD will be on your prescription, but if not, watch this instructional video on how to measure it.
* After you have chosen your frames and selected your shipping method, you’ll go to a “Order Review & Payment” page, where you can enter and apply your coupon code. After applying your code, you will see your order total before you choose to check out (remember that you will have to pay shipping/handling charges of $10-$15)
* If you would prefer to order a pair of prescription sunglasses, you can use the coupon code and then you can add a tint to your lenses and simply pay for the cost of the tinting, which is about $30.
* Your free pair of glasses will include the standard 1.5 index lenses, which accommodates up to a -8.00. However, if your prescription is over a + or -2.00, you may want to upgrade to a thinner, lighter lens. If you choose to upgrade your lenses, or have selected progressives, Transitions or a tint, you will see the cost of the upgrade in your order total.
* If you’re not happy with your glasses for any reason, Coastal Contacts will allow one exchange for another free pair at an equal or lesser value. They’ll even pay for the return shipping and send you a return label. Just give them a call at 1-866-333-6888 to make arrangements. Remember to keep your box and all the accessories that came with your order.
I’m wearing mine now that I got the first time, and I LOVE LOVE them!!! They even sent me a giftcard for another pair for FREE! 🙂 The second time my hubby was able to score a pair a Lacoste for about 12ish dollars! He wore his to work for the first time yest and came home telling me how much he loved them! DEF WORTH it!!!
how do i know which ones are coupon eligible?
“USUALLY” it says about mid ways down the page ‘not eligible.’ But I found a pair or two that did not say that…as I found out in check out. Sure helps to know so you can navigate faster. The really really haute glasses are usually not included.
thanks ill check out 🙂
The very expensive brands that are priced over about 100 are not included. I think my hubby’s were 80 somethin and they were included! 🙂 When you have all of the glasses pulled up and browsing, it should have small writing under each and everyone and if it’s excluded it will say there also!
Yes there were some over 100.00 included…WHAT A DEAL ! 🙂
READ THE RULES
Here’s the rules I found on the subject. Rather vague. I was going by the frames I ordered:
Can I order any pair of glasses on the site?
Certain frames are not eligible for the promotion. If you see a “Coupons not applicable” message on a pair of frames, then it is excluded from the promotion.
As Collin displayed and their FB page dittos.
I am also wearing mine, and I too, Love them. I ordered them as a back up pair. I ended up paying about $35.00 to upgrade the lens. I have been wearing these instead of my original pair which I paid $285:00!
I wear mine too that I purchased as a “backup” pair! I love them 🙂 Great deal, I ended up paying about 12 – 13 dollars.
I got a pair for my brother last time they had this promo. He absolutely loved them.
I paid about 50 dollars, the frame was free, but because his prescription is really high (i don’t use glasses so don’t know the terminology) the recommended lenses were $29.99 (slimmer lenses), 14.99 for the scratch resistant package, and around 7 bucks for shipping insurance. Shipping itself was free.
Customer service is great.
Also wearing mine now- LOVE THEM! Can’t wait to order more with the free coupon they included w/ my order!
