One of my site advertisers has advised me about a special promo tomorrow... Free Glasses one day promotion which will be running in Australia only. The Australian free day is set for a 6AM launch on Friday, November 26th. The coupon code is revealed when someone goes to their site and clicks through to the Facebook fan page and then clicks the “Like” button. 10,000 pairs of glasses will be available during the promotion!!! I've put some of their normal adverts on my main page at: http://www.abcdiamond.com/australia/ but a direct link is Free Glasses promotion Unfortunately for me, the email also says... "The free pair does not earn commission" hence I am only telling those I know about this special promo :wink: My alarm is set for 6am tomorrow, but I am selecting my new frames today :crossfingers: |

Is that 6am Brisbane time do you think? I would be inclined to think its EST so we will need to set our alarms to be up to do it 0500 Brisbane time :thumbsup: |

Just saw it on A Current Affair and they said it started at 0700am, so I guess its 0600 Brisbane time. |

According to ClearlyContacts, the giveaway starts at 6am AEST. That's Brisbane time, so 7am down South. I think.. these times do get confusing :wink: |

I ordered a lovely pink pair of glasses this morning. Had to pay $49.41 as had to order thin lenses, otherwise the glasses would be ridiculously thick and also pay for post and packing. The thin lenses were reduced too for today :thumbsup: Great bargain. Last glasses I got from the optometrist cost $200 on top of my private health insurance :no: |

Still available at 11am. I just did a late order, didn't get up early after all. I paid extra for the higher prescription thinner lenses. Rodenstock 4478 with Progressive and Transition thin lenses for $177 ($149+shipping) Last time I was quoted for something similar, it was about $700. Even yesterday, I was quoted $460 at a discount eyeglasses locally, with $369 being for the lenses alone, in a $90 frame. |

Excellent news, :thumbsup: I am still waiting for mine, but as I went for Transition lenses, I will probably have a longer wait. Just checked on line, mine is still in fulfilment, not yet shipped. |
