I Wanna: Eye test voucher

Mines due and rather than pay £20 with specsavers I'd rather get a free one and bring a copy of it to them (Im on the lensmail package)

Anyone know of a preferably free voucher doing the rounds, cant see anything with searching the site (excuse the puns) :-)

  • There was a free eye test in Asda in last month's magazone, no idea if it has expired though :confused:
    Real men never follow instructions; after all they are just the manufacturer's opinion on how to put something together. :p
  • Aren't most free eye-test vouchers conditional on purchasing specs, if required, from the company providing the eye-test.

    My eyesight has deteriorated somewhat over the last 2 years, to the point I get pain late in the day (eyes straining) and have plans to go this weekend.

    I thought the best course of action would be to pay for a NHS test, therefore being legally entitled to take the prescription anywhere I like..... and straight to an online provider for a far lower cost on the glasses?

    Try your employer if you have one or union. I get a freeby every year. Health and safety and all that........
    NO to pasty tax We won!!!! Just shows that people power works! Don't be apathetic to your cause!
  • The problem with doing it through my employer is that the letter they issue also asks the company to supply the glasses.

    I want the freedom to choose.....

    i used the d & a voucher. Good examination and stylise cosultation. Decided to get my specs (yes I ended up needing some) from Direct specs and saved £150 on simular from d & a
  • I've opted for Asda.

    Free eye-test 'if I need glasses' (and I know I will.)
    Prices seem reasonable, even for designer frames.
    Phoned today, appointment tomorrow.....
