Speccy-four-eyes strikes again! Having recently moved north of the river I located my nearest Specsavers and I’m so glad I did! I decided: ‘New Year, New Katie, New Specs’, and popped in on a whim to have a gander at their frames while my lovely boyfriend hung around like a bored toddler knocking things over and trying on all the weirdest ones he could find. I asked to book an appointment for a much needed eye test and they managed to see me immediately! The staff were so friendly and helpful and the optician was much nicer than expected — I might get in trouble for saying this but I often find opticians really patronising… just me? She did every test under the sun and confirmed what I thought — my eyes are even more useless than last time I was tested. The frames are currently on a ‘buy one get one free’ offer so I’ll be back soon to choose them(I already have my eye on a 50’s style pink pair!) But the very best bit about my visit? When it came to payment it was £5! Specsavers have a January eye test offer — get in there quick, it’s usually £20!
