Sticker shock: Why are glasses so expensive? Girlfriend got her prescription checked at Costco then bought a couple pair online. She was so happy with the price and quality she's bought 3 more pair so she can leave some scattered about and never be without a pair. Five pair later and she's still spent less money than buying them from a chain store.
