Default Who sells lots of Cheap sunglasses in PDX?

Every spring about this time, I go to GiJoes and buy a couple of pairs of my favorite gold rimmed, mirrored lens, polarized aviator sunglasses for about 14 bucks. This year, I have been to 2 joes and they don't seem to have them. Does anybody know where I might find these glasses in particular, or more likely, who around has lots and I mean LOTS of cheap sunglasses?

I think the hard thing is going to be finding them polarized.

Thanks for your help.

Polarized for $14?? Hmmmm....I'm skeptical. No wonder they're hard to find.
I was at a hardware store by my house and they had a couple racks full of glasses. The only reason I noticed was because some dude knocked a bunch on the floor as he was walking by. [img]graemlins/dork.gif[/img]
If I go there sometime soon I'll take a look.

I spent $110 on my current pair. A year and a half and so far I haven't broken or lost them.
I work outside and wear them for 14 hours a day sometimes, so I gotta have a good glasses.

20 bucks is my ceiling because it usually only takes a month befor I sit on them getting into the truck or they fall off my face as I'm reaching over the boat to dump the p can.

I guess I'll have to call around to some other joes.

Riverkeeper,

You sound like me. When I worked on a boat I lost at least 5 lighters (one zippo), 4 pairs of sunglasses (overboard or broken), 1 CD (don't ask) and 1 cell phone. One of the passangers even lsot a lap top while setting it on the rail and enjoying some work in the sun. Then it slipped. There are some happenin fish down there

I'm interested in the ones that are pre-manufactured for corrective lenses if anyone knows a good place to pick those up.
