With the festive season approaching, we all get ready to shop and save, as two of the biggest sales of the year take place at this time. October marks the beginning of the holiday season, and what’s better than looking stylish while celebrating? Along with turning heads, it’s also the perfect time to shop for thoughtful gifts for our near and dear ones. But have you ever wondered how much you can save if you plan for the sale season? Don’t worry, this year, I can save you some effort.

At Specscart, we understand how important it is to strike the right balance between quality, style, and affordability. This holiday season, we are coming up with some unbeatable deals that will blow your cart. You won’t stop at one, two or three pairs; you’d literally love to own “A Frame For Every Game.” But, before we let the cat come out of the box, we want you to be prepared, so here is some insider information for you.

1. Plan & Make a Wishlist

We all know that when we see words “sale” or “discount”, we panic and end up doing some impulsive shopping. But planning this year will help you save more and better. So, start by marking a heart on the products you like, maybe your favourite pair of glasses or sunglasses, or both. Keep them in your wishlist. Whether you are planning to buy them for yourself or want to give someone on Christmas, it’s always best to keep them in your wishlist beforehand.

2. Compare Quality, Not Just Price

The great deal isn’t always about what comes cheap, it’s about quality, durability and long-term investment. Therefore, before you jump to things that come at cheap prices, I would suggest going for affordable yet premium quality frames. The good news is we don’t sell cheap frames at all. Even the basic frames on our website or in our store are made from high-quality material with a premium finish. While choosing the frame, consider factors like face shape, style, material and lenses. You should invest in lenses that suit your lifestyle and needs.

3. Subscribe for Early Access & Exclusive Deals

You wink, and the offer is gone. Yes, that happens very frequently because we are mostly busy with our everyday tasks and don’t have time to keep an eye on brand websites. So, what can one do? Well, subscribe to their email list. By subscribing to Specscart’s newsletter, you’ll get early updates on our Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals, along with exclusive discounts reserved for subscribers. You should consider this one as your VIP ticket to get some real and great offers.

4. Check Return & Exchange Policies

Flexibility is the ultimate deal breaker when it comes to shopping online. When we shop online, we sometimes end up buying something that doesn’t match our preferences. Therefore, you must always check the return and exchange policy of the products you are buying. At Specscart, we offer a 30-day free return policy so that you can buy glasses stress-free. You can also make use of our free try-at-home service, in which you can get 4 frames of your choice, 3 lenses and a UV pen for 7 days. You can try them, click pictures and take an opinion from friends or family and then buy the one you like during the sale.

5. Think Beyond Yourself – Holiday Gifting

Sales seasons like Black Friday and Cyber Monday are more than just about self-shopping. During these times, you can also shop for Christmas gifts for friends and family. Glasses and sunglasses are one of the best things you can give someone, as they are stylish and practical. With good offers and discounts, you can get something for everyone without burning a hole in your pocket.

Final Thoughts

Black Friday and Cyber Monday can make you feel all over the place, but if you follow the right approach, you can save while getting your favourite eyewear pieces. Get the best of these deals and shop smart with us. With every purchase, you will get free premium accessories like a hardshell vegan leather case, a designer microfibre cleaning cloth, cleaning solution, and a keychain screwdriver.
