$100.00 savings!!!

or

FREE Transitions.

 

OFFER #1: When you purchase a new frame and lenses with a scratch and anti-reflective coating, we will take $100.00 off the price.  This is a smart way to get a great deal on a great pair of glasses.  It’s also the chance for many to get in on a second or even third set!  Whether they be for everyday use, evening dress up,  a functional pair of reading glasses for work/bed or a set of prescription sunglasses for all the upcoming fun in the sun you’ll be having, most of us could use more than one pair of eyewear.  It would be like only having one pair of shoes.  (For all the women who just fainted, you get our point!)

OFFER #2: When you purchase a new frame and lenses with a scratch and anti-reflective coating, we will provide “Transitions” for you at no extra charge…(this is when your lenses go dark for you automatically when you go outside)…(this is a very handy)…(and effectively blocks out the nasty UVA/UVB)…this second deal, if you wish to take it, is better than the first deal- the savings usually works out to somewhere in the ball park of $120-$200!!!

PLEASE NOTE: As many of you know, we always have everyday, in-store savings like our family and kid’s packages as well as a selection of marked down eyewear to choose from.  During sale times, the “SALE” is not on top of our everyday offers, but we will always work out which one would be a better choice for you and your family.

THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST SALES OF THE YEAR

DON’T MISS OUT!

So we’ve all been waiting a couple of months for the 2010 line of Dilem frames and interchangeable temples from France to arrive…they’re here!   Many new fun base styles, colours from classic browns and blacks to purples, fushias and turquoise.  The new collection of temples will include past options with fun new additions- patterns, colours, and styles!  For you that have them, come check out some more options…for you that don’t,  the Dilem line offers temples (a.k.a arms) that can be easily removed and replaced with a different coloured/patterned set .  It’s simple and simply great!

Alright, so these aren’t going to be for EVERYONE, but for sure there will be those who will just go nuts over the sassy frame line that we’ve added to our repitoire.  Get ready for it, the name is as sassy as the look…”Pussy Galore”!  They play with a lot of cat’s eye lines and are bold, sensual with fantastic use of colour.  They have a huge following and are well sought out.  The coolest thing is that they are Canadian!  Sweet!  Come try a pair on…if you dare!

Just a reminder, like you need one, that Christmas is on it’s way!  Do you have a hard to buy for person in your life?  Come in and purchase a Gift Certificate that they can put towards any of our store merchandise and eyewear.  Other great ideas for stocking stuffers are cleaning kits, cute/funky ceramic “noses” to hold glasses, chains, cases, sunglasses etc. etc.  Ho Ho Ho!!!!!

This Saturday Sept 26 we will be celebrating our new name and new look!

Come by and see some amazing collections from Europe.  In attendance will be the futuristic JF REY, whimsical BOZ, the mix and match duo  DILEM and ZENKA, the retro grooves and worldly treasures from LAFONT, the modern sweet stylings from OWP and the architectural designs of OGA.  The sun fun loving cats of MAUI JIM will be there catching some rays on the patio.  Sounding irresistible?

We will be offering all our clients that day the option to upgrade to the TRANSITIONS technology – so your eyewear can go from day to night…a $150 upgrade…on us!

Irresistible now?

How about a chance to sport your new look to various art scene stops such as The Belfry Theater, Dance Victoria, The Phoenix Theater, Art Gallery of Greater Victoria or the Royal BC Museum.  We will be drawing for seasons tickets to these tremendous venues – the ARTS are our communities pulse!

Oh, did we mention GIFT WITH PURCHASE!  How can you resist!  It will be great to see some familiar faces…and some new ones too.

Just one of the many changes and updates we have happening at our Broadmead location.  After 11 years as a franchise of another name…we are STEPPING OUT!!! 

We will have even more to offer you now. 

Firstly, all warranties from the “old days” will be honoured…it’s all about YOU and the best we can do for YOU. 
Secondly, we have a wonderful optometrist joining us in early October.  Dr. Mary Jean Krawciw (don’t panic  – you pronounce that KRAH-soo) has been practicing in Victoria for many years in Hillside mall.  She brings a caring touch and a great sense of humour to the team.  She has all the latest technology (retinal photos, visual field) to offer you a most comprehensive eye exam.  Please come by or call to book your appointment. 

Other changes include our new purple and green paint job to WOW you with our flair, fabulous new frame lines to tantalize you with, a referral program to share the love AND a 90 day satisfaction warranty.
