Hello all Ozbargainers - this is a bit of a pre-frenzy leak. How about 50% off all contact lenses online for the next 24 hours?! This offer ends strctly midnight tomorrow. $10 Shipping.

If you know someone who wears contact lenses and still pays high prices instore - be a friend and tell them about buying online with Specsavers.

And of course - limited to 1 order per customer.

All the best

EDIT 19/11/14

Dear ozbargainer,

I apologise you weren't able to place an order yesterday. Due to the large volume of customers hitting the site, we encountered some errors. To make up for it we are leaving the offer turned on until midnight tonight you don't miss out on the offer. It appears there could also be an issue with certain devices, computers or browsers. So if you are experiencing issues with the one you are using, try and another browser or computer.

If you are still experiencing issues please contact our customer service team on 1800 074 171 or [email protected]

        I'd say his question is "1 what?"

        i.e. Does it mean one item at the discounted price, or one order?

        great thanks.. I have 12 months supply of 1-day acuvue in the cart.. where do I add my health fund details (bupa) and how do i claim it?

  • Niximus on 17/11/2014 - 12:56

    It actually beats the price I get ordering directly from the US. Unfortunately I have recently stocked up and don't need any right now.

    Pity if couldn't be around this amount all the time.

    • idontalwaysnotlie on 17/11/2014 - 13:57

      I buy directly from the US for about $4 a lens (monthlies) even with this deal they are still around $7 a lens. So shop around and you might get a better deal somewhere else. They are still making a fair amount of profit @ 50% off so think what they make at full price…

        • thirtysixd on 18/11/2014 - 14:24

          I used to go with coastal until they upped their prices
          Now I use discountcontactlenses.com

          FOCUS DAILIES 30 Pack standard price from discountcontactlenses
          $16.16 USD

          FOCUS DAILIES 30 Pack from specsavers with a 50% off coupon
          $16 AUD

          This shows how much Australian retailers are marking up the same products

          IF you find a coupon for the us sites they will beat this deal

      • furythree on 17/11/2014 - 19:20

        cost price is about less than $2 a lens (i have a source from J&J)

        • braddsey on 17/11/2014 - 20:44
          +2

          Define "cost price".

          Are you talking manufacturing cost? or landed cost in Australia? Local logistics costs? how about marketing costs? customer service and sales rep. costs? or perhaps the cost for J&J Australia to purchase from Vistakon US or Ireland where the product is manufactured?
          You know J&J don't sell directly to the end customer? so the optometrist also has a margin and their own costs…

          It's easy to throw out the "cost price" number (which varies depending on the type of lens), but there's a lot of overhead between taking the silicone to make the lens to getting it in the patients eye.

          ***Disclaimer: I could be called a JJVC subject matter expert.

        • Weezle on 18/11/2014 - 01:44

          @braddsey:

          The price they (Specsavers) pays for the product…

        • braddsey on 18/11/2014 - 02:19

          @Weezle: You have a Specsavers rep who you can ask about their cost price for J&J lenses and see if he/she wants to share with you. Sharing commercially sensitive information on a public forum would probably have me looking for a new source of income.

          All I will say is that I purchased a year's supply of Acuvue Oasys via this deal.

  • QuicheLorraine on 17/11/2014 - 13:02

  • Alaisify on 17/11/2014 - 13:13

    The maximum sphere prescription available on the website for the Acuvue Oasys for Astigmatism is +6.00. However, my prescription for one eye is actually beyond that. Is there any way of placing a custom order?

      Yep. On my plan I could claim $25 per box normally. Since the ones I ordered with half price costs less than 25, I got the rebate value of the contacts only. Makes sense to me. Therefore I only paid for the delivery.

      Dear ozbargainer,

      I apologise you weren't able to place an order yesterday. Due to the large volume of customers hitting the site, we encountered some errors. To make up for it we are leaving the offer turned on until midnight tonight you don't miss out on the offer. It appears there could also be an issue with certain devices, computers or browsers. So if you are experiencing issues with the one you are using, try and another browser or computer.

      If you are still experiencing issues please contact our customer service team on 1800 074 171 or [email protected]

      Thanks
      Jack Hawks
