10. I don't shop for glasses online

I go to Costco for my glasses. I like being able to hold the frames and try them. It's like trying on or feeling the clothes' material rather than hoping everything fits. I picked out frames a couple of years ago and whenever my prescription changes I take a pair to Costco and have them put the new lens in. It takes about a week but that's okay because I have two pairs so I'm never without a pair of glasses.

One thing I don't like is mainly one company controls something like three-quarters of the eyeglass frames in the world so they can keep the prices high. Costco has a good selection of frames and you can get brand name frames or off-brand name frames.
