Eye care places. That’s where I got ours. 🤗

I bought ours on Amazon two weeks ago. I couldn't find anything locally.

I also heard try your local library, probably free there.

I ended up ordering from Amazon and just got them yesterday.

 

I didn't know until too late that just about every library around me was giving them out free.  By the time I found out, most places (within a reasonable distance) had run out.

 

Thankfully, despite a Nor'easter pummeling New England, I got mine.  I did check the local Walmarts and a couple showed them available - that was my backup plan!  Or else I'd watch it on tv.

 

They're saying now that some states may be too clouded over to even see it.

Make sure the ones you get from Amazon are legit. The news has been warning us about that.

@RescueLover - I made absolutely certain that mine were made in the U.S.A. by American Paper Optics.
