A Personal Thank You to one of the Whales

I read a post in DIY by @papa-pepper a while back and I want to personally thank him for posting it. I doubt he'll read it with the notifications he must receive on the daily but it's out there now, which makes me feel better.

He did a post a while back about saving money on broken prescription glasses. I was on my last pair of contacts and my glasses were broken so I headed over to the Dollar Store, found some reading glasses that closely matched mine and popped out my lenses from my Ray-Ban frames into the $6 Dollar General brand and they actually fit!

The top pair is the Dollar General brand reading glasses with my prescription lenses in them and the bottom are my broken Ray-Bans.

I've been so broke lately and having a hard time establishing myself in Tucson that I've been resorting to a ramen-noodle diet in recent days and thought I was SOL when it came to eye-wear until I remembered his post.

Thanks man! You saved me from having to decide between having tacos this weekend or sticking to ramen noodles for another two weeks.
