Contact lenses are very expensive, and the major manufacturers are in cahoots to keep any store from selling them at a discount, trying to prevent "showrooming" at the optometrist office: http://consumerist.com/2014/07/31/contact-lens-makers-work-together-to-make-sure-you-pay-more/
It's not that I don't want my optometrist to make money, but a year supply of the lenses I wear is ~$700 and I resent the fact that I cannot shop around!
I noticed that TopCashBack offers 3% back for current customers of 1-800-contacts.
The United Mileage Mall offers 4 miles per dollar at 1-800-Contacts.
I also put money in my FSA so at least I am saving some extra with that.
Anyone else have any tricks to save money or get something back contact lense purchases.
