VisionWorks

 After spending much time looking around and picking frames at Visionworks, we were finally ready to speak with one of their salesperson.  She explained the specials ranging from $199-$299 and she never stopped talking!  She's worse than a used car salesman! She tried so hard to up-sell and get us to buy the $299 package, played with her little calculator.
Twenty-five minutes later, after getting our personal info, measurements, etc., she offered an un-advertised "sales promo" called "BOGO" which stands for "Buy One Get One".  We get 2 pairs of eyeglasses with all the A/R coating, UV protection, upgrade to their, get this-- High Definition lens. (I'll talk about that later). It would cost $235, instead of the $299; so she got to sell us 2 pairs after all.
Guess what? She finished inputting the new order (another 10 minutes), then went to the backroom, came out, and told us they didn't have the lens in stock and it would take 2 weeks for our glasses to be ready.
We walked out, somewhat upset, 'cuz she wasted our time.  Who wants to wait 2 weeks when you can get them in an hour? I should have insisted or demanded her to check for the lenses first.
Lesson Learned from going to Visionworks- Always INSIST they check FIRST if the lenses you'll need are in stock so you can have your eyeglasses in about an hour!
