35NEW

Was looking for the best deal on contact lenses and this one seemed pretty good. Eligibility for health fund rebates is not important to me - just the lowest price inclusive of shipping.

Topcashback gives a code "35NEW" for 35% off at VisionDirect - who sell all major brands of lenses, with flat rate international shipping of $20 USD. This is better than their usual 25% voucher.

There are also other savings:

• If you buy 4 boxes of lenses you get a discount.

• Topcashback has cashback of 14%. This can be combined with the 35% code.

• Signing up (by referral) a Topcashback account and earning $10 USD cashback gives a $5 USD Amazon voucher. 14% cashback on a lens order should easily unlock this.

An example order:

• 4x boxes of 6 Biofinity monthly lenses @ $28.99 USD = $115.96 USD
• After 35% code and including postage of $20 USD = $95.37 USD

= $23.84 USD per box (~$33.58 AUD @ 0.71 rate)

If you factor in $11 USD cashback (paid as Paypal or Amazon credit with 3% bonus) & $5 USD Amazon voucher it costs ~$27 AUD shipped per box of 6 lenses - which is pretty cheap.

  This only works with Vision Direct US and won't work with Vision Direct AU. Vision Direct US won't be covered by Aussie Health Insurance.

  Yes. They are different sites - i am talking about visiondirect.com.

  I did mention that i wasn't considering health insurance - just price.

  If you can do better please post details - i am always looking for the best deals on contacts as it is a yearly purchase for me.

  I would stick with Specsavers

  They have a current offer: Specsavers Get $50 off When You Spend $149 on All Contact Lenses

  Plus you can claim on your health fund.

    e.g. Specsavers Biofinity $35 for a box of 3 is terrible value - even after that discount it's almost $50 per box of 6.

    And no health fund here - so of no value.

      Many of us have health funds to avoid the Medicare Levy Surcharge. Health rebates for Optical average at $250 and some up to $350

      I've been wearing contacts for over 7 years and i do NOT recommend monthly for hygiene purposes. Daily disposables are the way to go and they have a lower risk of conjunctivitis.

        All the dailies I tried irritated my eyes far too much. Never had any issues whatsoever - but I only wear my lenses a few hours a day for sport. As always YMMV.

        RE: health insurance.. well what can I say.. I don't have this. I still think those in my situation deserve a bargain though (and would be interested if anyone can do better).

      Well it certainly is of no value to me.. how can paying almost double the price be a good deal?

      If you have a health fund by all means go for it however.
