Wanted to get some expertise on sunglasses. I am looking for a pair of polarized sunglasses and I am looking to stay $60 and under. Does anyone have any suggestions where to look/ purchase? Thanks in advance.

I usually buy mine on the beach in Cancun every year. They are normally $15/pair, but I buy 10 for $80.00. Last year I bought them from a guy named Joaquin. He said they were polarized.

SIU's guy must be related to the one that tried to sell me some Oh-kah-lee Soon-glay-sis in Times Square last year.

Seriously, what type of style are you looking for?

I got mine at Sears, and they are even prescription for grading papers on my deck overlooking Cider Creek.

I'd avoid eBay if you want good ones- you'll get a lot of ones similar to the times sq/cancun versions. In Athens Greece it was the same type deal, street vendors selling whatever you wanted for $5-10.

I can't recommend a place to get them bc I just got prescription Raybans for free when I bought new glasses at Pearlevision, but I will tell you there is a significant difference in quality and you get what you pay for. Mine was BOGO and would have cost $450, but they are polarized and all and I love them.

My Ray Ban RB3362-03's bit it at a museum a couple of weeks ago.

I bought some cheap no-names to get my by until I can replace them and it sucks. I didn't realize how used to them I was.
