2 for 1s- load of rubbish.

It just shows you that this 2 for 1 on for specs is just resulting in you ending up with rubbish specs. I have not had this set of glasses for even a year and today the screw and the lens falls out. It will have to be my second pair of blue unisex ones from now on. No wonder they run 2 for 1 as when they sell is rubbish.

I bought a fabby little screwdriver thingy when I had my eyes tested last time - it clips onto your keyring and one end has a phillips head and the other a flat head - all teeny tiny and just the right size for tightening specs up. It was about £4.

I wear specs every day (can't have lenses due to my prescription) and tighten the screws on them about once a month - they work loose with the opening and closing.

It's got nothing to do with the price - screws wear loose whether your specs cost £1 or £1,000.

We may not have it all together, but together we have it all :beer:
