Glasses for Kids for $29.99

I received a JCPenney gift card for the purpose of this review. This post was made possible by Mom Spark Media. Thoughts are my own.

Are you ready for back to school?



If your child is heading back to school and wears glasses then you might want to take a trip to JCPenney to take advantage of their glasses for kids for $29.99. I do suggest going during the week like we did because it is less busy and the optical personnel have more one on one time with their clients. 

We were helped by a great lady and she allowed us to take her picture. She was polite, and generally cared that my daughter had picked the right glasses. Below she is finishing up our order. My daughter's glasses will be ready in about 10 days, just in time for school. 


I am the kind of mother who looks all year round for deals for school, birthdays, holidays, and any other times where we need to have things ready for a purpose.

Some of my children wear glasses like my husband and me. Just before school ended we found out our 5th child who is now 12 needed to get glasses. Insurance is great but ours does not pay for replacements and we can only get them every two years so I found out about this great promotion from JC Penny Optical in which you can get a complete pair of Kids' designer eyeglasses for $29.00, yes you read that right $29.99. Great deal right? 

Check out all of the frames they have available here, and a sampling of what was available at the JCPenney we visited below.

















So many cute styles to choose from, my seven year old wants glasses so bad, but alas her eyes are perfect. Even though she was looking and saying over and over again I want these when I have to wear glasses. She really does not know how blessed she is not to need them. My husband has worn glasses since he was a baby while I didn't start until 4th grade. So far each of our girls has started to wear glasses sometime during their 6th grade year, while my  24 year old son still has perfect vision.

This trip was for my 12 year old and after trying on about 50 or so pairs she weeded her selection down to these three. *The Particular JCPenney Optical we visited allowed my daughter to pick from the ladies glasses up to 120.00 so ask if your child's head is more on the adult size if that is an option.


 


The final decision came down to what she liked but not before she asked the family and all of us agreed the black and blue pair were the perfect pair for her.

Offer includes select Kids’ frames up to $120, FREE impact & scratch-resistant polycarbonate lenses, FREE UV protection and FREE eyeglass protection plan for any school-aged child 16 & under   Dates of promotion July 6th – September 15th

Using a Retractable leash with Gentle Giant

First of all make sure you really do have a Gentle Giant, and two make sure you have a Gentle Leader which makes walking any strong dog much easier.

This is the only way I would ever use a retractable leash on our Saint Bernard. I have never seen a retractable leash that goes up to her weight and until we received this Cloud9 leash everyone broke on her regular collars, but once we put a gentle leader on her and then the leash we have had nothing but pleasure walking her. This gives her much more room with out putting much strain on myself of my husband.

I have Fibromyalgia and my husband's knee never healed all the way after his accident at work so we have had to change many things in our lives to accommodate our family, including  our furbabies. This leash give Princess a whole 16 feet as opposed to the 6 feet she would have on our regular leash. This makes it so we can stand on the porch on bad days while our Princess does her business. We don't get hurt and she gets a little extra freedom.

You can purchase the Cloud9 retractable leash on Amazon.

What Cloud9 has to say about their product.

JUST ANOTHER DAY WALKING THE DOG....
That is until he decides to bolt off after a squirrel, pulling the leash from your hand. So much for that walk, now it's a run, and not one your flip flops had planned for...
STAY IN CONTROL WITH CLOUD 9!
Let's face it, our pets can be a little crazy sometimes, especially outside where there are so many sights and smells for them to take in. The better your leash, the better your chances of being able to reign your pet in.
THAT'S WHERE WE COME IN
We bring the durability and comfort you've been craving with our ergonomic sure grip handle and ribbon style anti-tangle retractable nylon cord. It's a match made in heaven for you and your pet. Have confidence in your pet supplies with Cloud 9!
NEED BACK UP?
We've got you covered there too! Between our bonus ebook with tons of content for you and your fuzzy buddy and our lifetime replacement/money back guarantee, you're covered no matter what! It's for these reasons more people choose Cloud 9 for their pet walking needs, and we hope you will too! You'll be glad you did.
