Cancer Council polarised sunglasses are half-priced at the moment @ David Jones.

Availability in stores, for home delivery or click & collect may vary depending on item style and your nearest store location.

I own a few pairs and think they are excellent. I especially like the Bondi style, which is now $19.98

    Sensational timing. I'm about 5 minutes away from the nearest DJ and desperately need new sunglasses.

      No stock of cancer council sunglasses. Other brands aren't discounted, at least on the shelves.

      • ectogammat on 20/01/2018 - 14:23

        Damn, sorry to hear. Click & collect might be your best bet then

        Looks like stock is in - just walked into DJs CBD (market street entrance) and it's in the main sunglasses area.

        • b2dz on 20/01/2018 - 17:52

          I see two small shelves with sunglasses. Ray Ban, Gucci, Hugo Boss, Carrera. No cancer council.

          Weird.

        • jleno on 20/01/2018 - 19:22

          @b2dz: In the sunglasses area, it's closer to the side of the piano. There's a "50% off" red sign above that shelf.

        • ectogammat on 20/01/2018 - 21:07

          @b2dz: I hope you ended up finding a pair you like!

        You probably need to head to where the perfume and cosmetic area is at. There's still plenty at around 4.30pm today.

        • b2dz on 20/01/2018 - 17:16

          Thanks both. I'm heading back there shortly.

          I went to the men's suit/shirt section was. Maybe on another floor.

          Thanks.

        • deal junkie on 20/01/2018 - 17:30

          @b2dz: Head to the Elizabeth Street store. If you see the handbags section, it's just near there.

        • b2dz on 20/01/2018 - 17:32

          @deal junkie:

          Yep, that's where I was. It's a large store so not quite sure which handbag section you're referring to, but I'll have a better look this time. Cuddles and kisses if I find something.

    I got a pair of cancer council Atherton sunnies a few months back (from just sunnies.com). They look just like ray bans and they're polarised and only cost about $50. Build quality is very good too, not flimsy and won't break on you.

    Don't know why people pay hundreds of dollars for similar sunnies, especially when they're not even polarised

    • Yaren24 on 20/01/2018 - 13:32

      $20 - 30 for a pair of quality sunnies are pretty cheap, considering that Rayban in general cost $150+, within that price range it would beat most of the competitors.

    • sam buster on 20/01/2018 - 14:57

      Fot the logo & brand name - just to show off how stylish they are and how much money they can afford to spend on a pair of sunglasses.

    • AussieDaddy on 20/01/2018 - 14:58

      How is their sizing compared to other popular sunnies? I was eyeing that pair and DJ doesn't show the sizes, so I am not sure how they would fit large faces.

      • ectogammat on 20/01/2018 - 15:00

        I'm not sure, standard sizing I would think. But the Bondi suits larger faces due to the larger frames (as also mentioned by Ozjoey below)

        • AussieDaddy on 20/01/2018 - 15:00

          Cheers. Will check those if any of my local DJ stores have stock available.

      Oh yeah, the Bondi is one of my faves. Highly recommended to those who cannot decide between styles.

      • Ozjoey on 20/01/2018 - 14:06
        +2

        I wear them driving the larger frame blocks out the sun's rays well and its good that they are polarised as well.

      • jelko on 20/01/2018 - 14:39

        Thanks. Just ordered a pair. Never really worn sunglasses before, these will do just fine.

      I got that when buying something the other day. I changed the click and collect location and it worked. I assume the stock wasn't really there for my original store. I hadn't seen the product when I had been in the store a few days earlier, so had been surprised to see it come up online there.

      • redpen on 20/01/2018 - 15:18

        ah. I was get them delivered instead. Tried different browsers, even my phone.. same error. oh well, next time.

          They probably didn't have stock in the online warehouse (assuming they have one?)

    The sale had been out for a good few days. Missed the last one but first of the ranks. Bought 3 types that id be eyeing but noticed if i tried to get two of each it wouldn't goi through the checkout. Not sure if this meant there was one glasses only of each style. They def never have In store stock thigh

    Thanks OP, got a pair for me and a pair for my wife.

    I got Bondi but only cos it was the best of a limited men's range.
    I've had a wraparound sports pair for years and there were a couple of styles on those lines, but they don't offer much coverage.
    I have fairly narrow temples so wayfarer-style broad frames tend to stick out a mile. I'm usually limited to aviator-type or wraparound sports glasses.
    Today, I was about to select a slightly feminine pair when I spotted a pair of Bondi - being a unisex style they don't stick out too far on me.

  • witsa on 21/01/2018 - 16:38

    Just want to point that this isn't actually a fantastic deal. This is good if you exclusively buy from David Jones but these glasses are just the same as the ones you get at petrol stations.

    I actually bought a pair of these from David Jones and on the way to my car walked by a newsagent and actually noticed they sold exactly the same "Cancer Council" brand glasses for the same 50% off price. So I actually went ahead and bought another pair because they actually had more range.

    • Kremleen on 21/01/2018 - 17:09
      +1

      Ouch.I'll probably never buy full price Cancer Council sunnies at DJ thanks to your info

    • ectogammat on 21/01/2018 - 17:39
      +4

      Sure, I don't think anyone here is under the impression that these sunglasses can only be bought/bought on sale from DJs only or that they have the best quality/materials (eg glass lenses, which you're not going to get with $20 polarised sunnies). Cancer council sunnies are sold in a variety of stores. It happens that currently DJs have them on sale (Myer also has them on sale from time to time) and I'm not aware of any other places where you could access the range DJ carries for a lower price now (except for COTD as someone else has pointed out earlier which have a smaller selection for cheaper prices especially if one has club catch already).

      Thanks for sharing the fact that we could also get these fantastic sunnies at half off elsewhere though. I know my nearest newsagent don't carry CC sunnies but good on you for finding one that sells a large range and have them on sale at the same prices as DJs. For others, DJs may be a lot more convenient - you can buy online or in stores, without having to hunt down an obscure newsagent that a) carries these sunglasses and b) has them on sale @ 50% off.

  • Amanda3724 on 21/01/2018 - 16:50

    Thanks so much - treated myself to a couple of pairs of Fiorelli sunnies at half price too.

  • El Cap on 22/01/2018 - 07:11

    • Franky23 on 22/01/2018 - 11:13

    This is an excellent deal. I lost a pair of Bondi sunglasses and replaced them two years ago. The lens is comparable to other more expensive brands. I much prefer them to my girlfriends raybans. If you take them to the beach just clean of the sunscreen and sand as the plastic on my frames are starting to peel.
