Um, yeah, that's the point. I guess I'll have to add a sarcasm disclaimer next time.

I have a buddy that posts/lurks here that has a 2007 Chevy with a few bazzilion miles on it. He won't go buy a new truck, but he will spend around $1K/month in fancy beers.

I’m in my 40’s. Glasses are the only thing I can think of when someone says to “spend money on your eyes.” Cheap sunglasses are fine so I’m assuming prescription glasses are what is being discussed.

I don’t need glasses so perhaps I don’t understand. But don’t you get a prescription from doctor and that’s the glasses you get? Are we talking about spending money on frames?

I wear prescription sunglasses and that’s been a major upgrade for me. Look good, feel good. Worth the extra cost.

That’s what I figured but someone grouped eyes with feet and teeth. I understand feet and teeth and but didn’t see how eyes fit in. Sounds like more cosmetic

TP and shoes. Cheap shoes make my feet hurt. I'm perfectly fine waiting for them to go on sale though.
