800 Contacts. All I know is NEVER buy them from the eye doctor. My Night & Day's were $86/box and only $42 from 800 Contacts. What a ripoff.

Depends on what kind of deal I get. Last time I bought from Walmart and they let you pick up from any Walmart of your choice.

Used to get 'em at 800 Contacts years ago but more recently noticed their prices aren't the most competitive. Costco and Wal-Mart are good but other mail-order mongers like drugstore can be great with coupons and cashback. Check out fatwallet.

I use to order from VisionDirect, but since updating my perscription, Lens.com had the cheapest total price. Slow shipping in retrospect though.

There was a real ugly, rainbow-colored website I remember, that searched a bunch of sites for the lowest priced contacts. The bookmark is on another computer somewhere.

they are slow because they get supplied from china.
