Silly question.... but I need one of those little eyeglass repair kits. Found one at HEB and it was six bucks!

I KNOW I've bought them elsewhere for around two-fitty... But where? I can't remember. Anyone know? Preferably NOT Wal-mart though, please. Too far. Where else might I find one for a reasonable price? I really just need the itty bitty screw.

Walgreen's? You might luck out at a little c-store, too--sometimes they carry the oddest things.

Ditto on Dollar Store. I used to put one in my dad's stocking every year when I still lived at home I still see them at Dollar Stores - sometimes by the checkout, sometimes in the aisles.

And most of those stores have them right by the register, or in the jewelry dept.

Thanks, everyone! There's more dollar stores and the like around here than there are big box stores so I'll poke around the neighborhood. I was just drawing a blank on where to look. Appreciate the tips! I would really like to lose the safety pin look.
