Where can I find eclipse glasses?

Our retailers are limited.  Walmart, Walgreens, Gliks, Shoe Dept.,

TDS drugstores.  Any ideas?  I know Menard's has them but they are 50 miles away.

My independent regional grocery store is stocking them but only while supplies last.  They may be all sold out by now.  Amazon, Walmart and even Lowe's is supposed to be selling them.

Amazon.  For all the time you may spend driving around town from store to store, you can order them from Amazon and get them the next day.  That's what I did.

I ordered ours from Amazon. You might still be able to get them, if you order today and select those that are available for one day shipping.

Your hardware store will have welding lens glass ( under $5).

To safely look at the sun, a welding helmet/glasses need to be Shade 12 or higher, according to NASA.
