In case you have a child or know of someone who does (ages 12 and under), they can get a FREE pair of eyeglasses from Target:

Target is doing a special promotion for their optical service. It could end any time but will definitely end no later than April 29th.. Children 12 and under can get a free pair of glasses.

They need to bring in a valid prescription for glasses from their doctor and Target will let the child pick from about 40 different frames. They will place their best lenses in the frames which are non-glare and scratch resistant and normally sell for $200.00. There are no income guidelines. Any child 12 or under is eligible.

You can find stores with optical departments at www.target.com http://www.target.com/ to confirm they are participating before making a trip to their store.

Please pass this information on to anyone who can benefit from this promotional offer. If you know someone with lost or broken glasses please share this information with them ASAP, as the promotion could end at any time. They would like families to come in as soon as they can.

Feel free to forward this information to others!

Wow, I wish they had offers like this when I was a kid. That's pretty nice that Target is doing that.

wow! awesome... how can they afford to do that...

I work for Target. This means I'm gonna have to hear about this crap for the next month.

good luck with that..

Hmmm... I had gotten an email about that last week, but then someone had told me it was a hoax.

got the same e-mail and checked the facts. Not exactly a hoax, but the area where this promotion is going on is incredibly small... like, not many states are participating...
