I have to re-order some damn contact lenses. Sigh. Anyway, I never ordered from anywhere else BUT 1800contacts. They seem pretty cheap, and they have extremely speedy shipping! I'm just wondering if there's anything else out there...that's much better in prices compared to 1800contacts.
I'm ordering the Acuvue Advance for Astigmatism lenses, if that helps anyone out.
Thanks :)

Sam's Club as well. Take a look around at optical places. When I got my contacts I was under the impression I would just order everything online, but in actuality, Sam's Club in store is cheaper. And you don't need to be a member to use their vision services.
I have ordered from coastalcontacts.com before. The price was the cheapest and shipping was insanely fast.
They have your contacts for a few dollars more per box than 1800contacts, but with a $75 rebate on 8 boxes (instead of $40).
Too bad you have an astigmatism. I just switched to Acuvue Oasys and they are the most comfortable contacts I have ever used. I used Acuvue and Acuvue 2 for years, tried Advanced for a while but switched to O2 Optix, which I considered the best until I tried Oasys.

Not to hijack the thread or anything, but since some opinions have come up can anyone else with an astigmatism recommend a good pair? I went from normal softs to torics after I developed an astigmatism, and I just can't stand them. The weights never seem to work right for me.

Yeah they are a pain in the ass....I have the Soflens66 ones right now....they are alright but I can't give a good opinion on them as they are the only ones I've used. Keeping them moist I think is the key to making the toric ones work well.

Take a look at Sams Club right now. Im actually about to head out and buy some contacts from them. I use the FocusDailys and apparently I can get a 90-Day box for $20 right now.
