Thrifting Stories : Eyewear

I bought my very first pair of Raybans with my first salary in Canada for about $350. They're rarely used because I'm always worried I'll lose them. I also bought a pair of prescription Oakley eyeglasses last year in India for about Rs 16,000 ($262 Canadian). They turned out to be duds and I don't use them anymore. 

I discovered last year I can get good eyewear at thrift stores for cheap. Just have to be very patient. 

I have since picked up eyeglasses that Mum and Dad have been using daily and I couldn't be more proud! 

Below are some recent acquisitions. Prices range from $2.50 to sometimes $15.

Brands Include: Ray Ban, Maui Jim, Safilo, Etnia Barcelona, Battatura and more.

Some are in great shape and some not so much. These will be given in family and friends for anyone interested with the full disclosure that they're all thrifted.
