Although the weather is maybe too hot to be outside for too long at the moment, the heatwave will eventually pass and the UK will see the return of pleasant and sunny conditions that are far more tolerable. The horror of 40C heat will soon be replaced by much more safe and clement temperatures of around 25C.
This is perfect picnic weather – pleasant conditions for a stroll through the park or a drink on a rooftop bar and you want to look cool while you do it. This is something Martin Lewis also apparently wants for his readers.
On his website moneysavingexpert.com, the financial guru has managed to blag a discount code on some designer sunglasses/glasses which reduces them from £145 to just £37. The deal applies to a whole range of Ted Baker frames and lenses which can be found at the online retailer SpeckyFourEyes.

Through the website, you can get the deal by using the code MSE37TED at the checkout. If you don’t want your glasses or sunnies with a prescription, you can choose ‘fashion’ lenses during the checkout process. The code ends at 11.59pm on Sunday 14 August, so if the deal appeals it is worth taking advantage sooner rather than later.
On the MSE website Martin Lewis and his team have some recommendations to make the best use of the deal and get the cheapest option:
-
To get them cheapest, pick ‘continue with free lenses’ when asked to choose your lens package (stage four of the checkout process), as thinner or scratch-resistant lenses will cost £10-£126 extra. To avoid other extras and keep costs down, click ‘skip step & continue’ until you reach the checkout.
-
You can either enter your prescription during the checkout process, or opt to send it later. Some frames aren’t suitable for high prescriptions, so keep an eye out when choosing.
-
Select ‘Royal Mail Standard’ delivery – MSE’s code will make this delivery option free (normally £5.99).
MSE’s Laura B says: “It’s tricky to compare prices for these exact frames, as many of them are end-of-line and aren’t sold elsewhere – but I reckon £37 all-in for a pair of branded prescription specs or sunnies (normally £145) is pretty decent.
“SpeckyFourEyes might not always be cheapest, so do your own price comparison before buying. As ever, with branded items in particular, be sure to check reviews if it’s a retailer you’ve not heard of.”
