Where do/did you shop for Sunglasses?
Well it's Summer.. Probably going to get contacts, and it's normally not fun to drive during the day. 
Always have been a fan of ray-ban sunglasses.
Where did you get yours?
When I think of something better to add, I will.

nearly all sunglasses have equivilant uv protection, ect, so, it only matters how they look
me: the brand name knock off kiosks at the mall do just fine
since i go through many-a-sunglasses via hugs, stepping on, ect
since i "store" them on my shirt

Ahh well I am tired of having a pair of cheap knock-offs. After a while my eyes start to dislike the fact that I am wearing the pair of $9.99 glasses.
Normally I find something that looks neat, but also feel good. I am sure I will find someplace either on the internet or a store. (Most stores shaft you on the prices of course.)

Just got a new pair as a matter of fact.
The local flea market is one of the best sites on earth for sunglasses. The dealer there is so well set in the biz that he doesn't even try any of the little things. He'll ask you for what you wnat, what for, style, and such. Then he'll match you to the best glasses for you.
For myself and AC the answer is some new polarized wrap arounds. They do the job of Blue Blockers, but without the color shift. And they are lite, cover the side and just about everything else.
Oh, yeah. He also carrys the same tinting in a better quallity for about four times the cost. Giving these a few weeks then thinking about upgrading.
Sorry I can't put you in touch with the guy...

Flea markets and swap shops, go for the mid-range knock offs. Then again, I rarely wear true sunglasses, as I literally can not see past 12-16 inches without my regular glasses.

No problems CER.. I am sure I will find something eventually.
Of course online I checked ebay (Lots of fakes around there! )
Nashbar.com, performance.com normally have some nice ones that I will look into.
In the end I will probably spend over $100 easily.. We'll see what happens though.

haha how about no? In fact I normally don't like spending that much money, but it's going to happen anyway. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...category=15666
Sunglasses like this would be cool, too bad they are FAKE!  | |

In fact maybe I should just put ALL of the money I have (including ATM account) and just put it in my savings.. (I can't touch it until I am in 18---August)
Maybe that'd be nice. Because first comes the sunglasses, then I will decide I need a new watch and then it goes down hill from there. | |
