Eyeglasses.
Can't find your glasses? Has your prescription changed? No need to spend hundreds of dollars for a new pair. We found several online eyewear providers that can set you up with a good pair of specs for as little as $7. That low price covers the frame and single-vision lenses with anti-scratch coating at Zenni Optical, Goggles 4 U, and Eye Buy Direct; the first two also throw in UV protection. At 39 Dollar Glasses, a basic pair will cost you $39 but you'll get polycarbonate lenses in addition to UV protection and scratch-resistant coating.
