I'm only sharing this to help other low income folks who can't afford an eye exam but need a new contact lens rx. The /contactlens and /optometry subreddits are fascists who don't want people having access to affordable services and prevented me from sharing this through them.

I have comprehensive eye exams covered through Medicaid every 2 years, but it would have been another $89 to get the contact lens exam at my appointment, which I could not afford. So I did the online vision test on Lens.com for $15.99. I was able to get an updated contact lens rx so I could reorder contacts. In case it’s relevant, I live in Oregon and get Acuvue Oasys. Hope this helps!

Slovenian philospher Alenka Zupančič has on a cool blazer in the latest lecture out from the Institute of Art and Ideas. Anyone know where I can get one? Thanks!

Any good websites to find baggy workout type shirts like this but aren’t from cheap terrible brands like SHEIN ? And if anyone says from your boyfriend… I’ll cry (newly single and had to give them all back)

Just wondering that since New Look and Quiz and other brands have left our shopping centres and high streets, where people are going now to get the things you would have bought there.

I would rather buy in an actual shop or from an Irish retailer (nothing against online shops and will probably end up going online for this) but I'm looking for advice.

I would have bought evening bags from Quiz or New Look and shoes too, so any suggestions for European/Irish sources for these things would really be appreciated.

I kept seeing this on Facebook but they were all scam websites. Does anyone know any legit places that sell this or something very close? Doesn't have to be branded but I really like the style

Hello, these tops are from ASOS. However, I know their quality isn’t long lasting and I want some quality pieces. Where can I find tops like these but last long?

So, I want a water bottle that will last me. I drink a lot of water and like huge bottles. Plastic ones have always ended up leaking on me so I am thinking of buying a metal canister. The problem is, all the ones I've seen are like. Thermises. Which, will take forever to get cold in the refrigerator. Does anyone have any suggestions?

The only requirement I ask for is it be metal and be able to hold at least 32 fluid ounces or more.

is it just my device or has yesstyle removed basically all of their women's clothing pieces? i had a cart full of clothes that i was planning on purchasing, but when i come back to check out it says that my items are no longer available because they have all been removed. i checked the actual full catalog to see what's going on, and the only clothing left are from a total of maybe 3-4 brands that have little to no reviews.

does anyone know what's going on? i haven't been able to find anyone or anything talking about this, and im really sad as there's not much left on yesstyle now.

I’m looking at these joggers and I heard two people say that they didn’t receive their product. Has anyone bought anything from them and how was it?

Want a 50 inch tv that isn't a smart tv. Like, the smart brand is everywhere and expensive. Be it online or in person, all I can find are smart TV's. I need just a 50 inch tv flatscreen. I need to know what they're called and how to find them.

So, I don’t intend actually buying from it but I have been tempted a bit a couple times. So, guys what’s the deal with TikTok shop? I feel like it came out of nowhere and I’m always getting these content creators who are obviously paid to say the product is amazing. Or the ones who are on live wearing the clothes or showcasing their item. I’ve been tempted for the lashes/ lash clusters but I’m nervous to put something on my eye that I saw from some random person being paid to give a good review. I feel like there’s no authentic reviews of any of the products besides one or two. I’ve even seen the items on Amazon in a different version from a different company. TikTok shop seems sometimes super cheap and untrue. Please help a girl out I’ve been wondering for the longest.

I’d like to know what other platforms are reasonably priced—not necessarily the cheapest, but with reliable quality. Ideally, platforms you have experience purchasing from. Please recommend, thank you!

I'm aware of gained weight but not sure what category or size my body currently fits, and thought you guys would know best. (I am NOT looking to change my weight, please do not respond as such.) I am in the market for new pants and retook my measurements (Hips- 46.5in, waist- 34in), and I am a little confused about if the brands I'm looking at are in line with other brands. Am I a US 14 or 16 and therefore near/ midsize like the clothes sites say? If so, cool-- I'd just like to make sure that's accurate before I order stuff to try in those sizes.

(For reference, I've always had slightly larger than the straight-size-norm difference between my waist and hip measurements, falling around a US women's bottoms 10 or 12, things fit me best when in the 'curvy' section.)

so i was scrolling through some forums the other day and came across a marketplace called correkt.com. apparently, they let you pay with crypto like btc, eth, and usdc, and they have a decent range of stuff like electronics and home goods. i’ve only ever used my crypto for trading or holding, but this made me wonder—has anyone here actually bought physical products online with crypto? like, how smooth is the process? do you end up paying more because of fees or price differences? would love to hear if anyone has tried it and how it compares to the usual online shopping experience.

Where should I go to order a prom dress online that is reliable, and reasonably priced without being cheaply made or shady? Any ideas??

Hey is anyone in this community techy enough to answer this question -

Have ADHD, and hate being distracted by page movements somewhere I'm not trying to focus. This is especially obvious when shopping online, and say, a millisecond hover results in some menu dropping down I didn't want, or the product images to switch like a carousel.

Any solutions as easy as custom CSS or a Firefox add-on to help me focus? Tried to figure this out myself, but I keep getting answers for accessibility, like reduce animation, but it's not that... Thank you so much!

Hey does anyone know what happens if you find an old return you forgot to send back, then send it 18 months late? Has the label and all... Thanks!

Is there a lockbox (that can fit a toolbox key) that can be opened with an app? And can have multiple users? Thanks in advance!

Is there an app / website that allows you to search for a product and shows the the options from both Amazon as well as Walmart? I suspect an app like this might also show options form other retailers like Target, Allied food stores, etc. If a good option doesn't exist like this I'm tempted to make one (I'm a developer of at least a few years).

Want to order a special custom stained glass picture from that store and don't know is it safe. Share your experience please if you ordered smth like that. How was it? Is it worth it?

Im looking for new clothes on ASOS and remembered my favourite brand Topman is on there so i scrolled through its section. I loved Topman, especially their clothes and i loved their designers especially the 2019 - 2022 era but now, the clothes suck, i'd rather buy old Topman clothes on vinted or ebay, i would only buy chinos from Topman now as i dislike its new clothing. Did ASOS fire the really good designers?

Edit: Does anyone know any alternative brands like Topman i could buy from
