PRESCRIPTION GLASSES AND SUNGLASSES
I’ve been wearing prescription glasses since the 2nd grade. I don’t have contacts at all. Since this is an expense that I ABSOLUTELY NEED, I searched for an alternative to $300+ glasses from the optometrist office.
I have tried several online glasses retailers and Zenni Optical was the best one, in terms of customer service, an easy to use website, and most importantly quality of frames, accuracy of prescription, and affordable cost!
AFFORDABLE CLOTHES
This is my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE way to shop for clothes! And it makes me feel like I’m LIVING RICHLY ON A BUDGET!
Why? Because it’s super affordable and that means if I don’t like the clothes after a year or two or if I gain weight and no longer fit them, it’s easier to let go of!
I no longer feel bad about shedding clothes that don’t fit the current “me” and it makes it easier to donate them.
ThredUP has a nice selection of procured, in style clothes in like new condition. I no longer have to dig through racks of clothes in consignment shops or shop sales rack at department stores.
Now, I go on my ThredUP app, search for items that I want to buy, like tops, and it shows me everything in my size. I “like” the clothing items that catch my eye and it goes into my Favorites section. Then later, when there’s a coupon code or I am ready to make a purchase, I check my Favorites section to see what’s still available.
ONLINE SHOPPING
If you shop online, you should be earning money for it. With Rakuten eBates, I’ve earned over $350 over the past few years just having the Rakuten eBates plugin working in the background while I make purchases online. I also love that they suggest coupon codes for merchants at checkout.
