    aye specsavers do deals with designers so you can get yourself some funky red or dead ones, fcuk ones etc. i paid 90 quid for an eye test two pairs of desiger glasses and see if i was suitable for contacts :up: pretty good if you ask me :)

    Specsavers.. Mine are FCUK, worth £130 but at the time I had an NHS voucher, and they randomly knocked a few more quid off because I'm a long term customer.:spangled:

    There's vouchers knocking around for cheaper eye tests there as well..

    I've always gone to specsavers and they are really good.:D

    The bogof is great. Have got one boring brown pair for the day and a slightly funkier purple pair for night time.......even though since then tend to wear contacts out now:)
