7/5/2023 -7/31/2023 | Join us during the month of July for special deals on glasses and for the chance to win a gift! Santa dropped off too many frames for us last Christmas, and we need to make room for our TWO new frame brands - announcement coming soon, so continue to watch social media! There will be five of our most popular frame brands that will be 50% off during the ENTIRE month of July. We will not be re-ordering these frames in again, so get them while they last. These frame brands include: Betsey Johnson, Fysh, WOOW, ProDesign, and Modo. We also thought it would be fun to have a drawing for a gift giveaway ... 'tis the season after all (let's just pretend for a month). For each pair of complete glasses you order during the month of July, you will be entered to win a pizza oven (valued at $200)! YUMM! And if Christmas were really in July, it would be on the 25th, right? Well, if you purchase a frame from one of our two new frame lines on July 25th, you will get $100 off that frame! Please call and schedule a VIP appointment for that day to take advantage of this AMAZING deal as it will be limited to 10 lucky people.
