12/3/2009: Goggles4U Ups The Ante. They used to be a 5% discount here, but now we're at 10% -- the best deal for them on the web. Link! (Use code: "glassyeyes").
11/30/2009: $12-off at 39DollarGlasses. That's $2 more than the long-term deal. It's also lunch for you and a friend on the "dollar menu." Link!
11/25/2009: EyeBuyDirect is selling their vouchers at 50%-off again. This is the second year for this big deal!
11/25/2009: EyeBuyDirect Deal of the Week is here again. They have six pairs to choose from. I can only speak on the "Plasma" from experience. Love them. Combine with the vouchers?

Every now and then EyeBuyDirect has a frame on special that I have to talk about -- something unusual, but cool. This is one of those moments.

Altea is a bit on the conservative side in the front, but it's all party in the back -- not unlike a mullet. But let's put all mullet comparisons out of our minds for a moment. The temples are clear but feature a black outline. They're on the longer side (at 140mm), so they'll work for those of us with larger heads too. This is a unique frame, that will look good on everyone -- except, oddly enough, those sporting a mullet.
ALTEA
Altea is on sale until Sunday, July 5th for $10 off.

What does this mean to you? Well, with EBD and their coatings prices, it can mean that you get nearly free UV and AR coatings on a neat looking frame. Toss in the 15% off GlassyEyes discount ("gleyes09") and you get the frames, necessary coatings, AND shipping for just a smidge over $36. Not too shabby!

I don't have anything like this in the collection and am "in for one", as the kids say.
