I am writing this review because I am outraged at the price increase that I experienced trying to buy my contacts this year. Upon renewing my contacts I found that the price per box went from $39.44 /box in 2017, $38.94/box in 2018, $38.94/box in 2019, to $53.28/box in 2020. That's at a bulk discount. If you don't buy in bulk, they are $73.28/box. WHAT? In 2017, 2018, 2019 there was a processing fee of $18.49. This year, the processing fee is $46.75, an increase of $28.27. How do you justify this processing fee? Why has this fee more than doubled? Last year (2019) my total cost for the contacts were $182.20. This year if I were to purchase the exact same contact lens they would cost $260.37. Why has this exact same order gone up $78.17? During these difficult times of uncertainty, I feel outraged at this increase.
