Lost my sunglasses the other day, and I'm looking to buy a couple cheap pairs of sunglasses so it won't be so bad if I lose or break them. Anyone know where I could get a couple cheap pairs?

If you want cheap, Ebay is the way to go.

Otherwise, maybe Loonie Store or etc. Unless your not talking that cheap

Winners. I bought some Zoo York's for doing chores outside. $15 and they look good.

MEC has a pretty good variety. The ones I like are $30. they have some cheaper than that too.
I have a pair of much more expensive glasses, but to be honest, I prefer the MEC ones.

Ding ding!

Gas stations, mall kiosks, drug stores, wallmart, safeway, gift shops.

A lot of places sell them.

MEC and Biking stores have the cheapest sunglasses that will actually offer you decent eye protection ($10 sunglasses that have 100% UVA/UVB is not the same as say, Oakley advertising the same thing).

In the $30 range you have a lot of options at MEC and The Bike Shop or similar stores.

Don't cheap out on your eyes with dollar store glasses. You don't need to go buy a $500 pair either, just don't buy garbage.

Go to Sport Chek or something similar, you should be able to get some decent polarized ones for around $30. I bought a no name brand in the states from a sports store, polarized, and more people have complimented me on those than my more expensive name brand ones (i.e. Arnette, Oakley...etc)

MEC, if you want inexpensive, good quality glasses with UVA/UVB protection.
