    Hi,

    We're getting married the Aug bank holiday weekend and thought we might put out a box of cheapo sunglasses for people to take if they haven't brought a pair. Just wondering has anyone done this and if so, where did you get them? We've seen them in Penney's for around €3 per pair, so ideally we'd like to be able to get them cheaper, but we're open to suggestion.

    Cheers

    You have left it a little late to buy in bulk from China unfortunately, you'd want 6-8 weeks :(

    Thats an awesome idea! Try dealz! Or Eurogiant or whatever euro shop is nearest you! You should get some for 1.50ish!! :-)

    You could try Tiger; not sure how much they have them for.
    But it might be a better bet for bulk and reasonable quality.

    We got a bulk discount on candles from there for our wedding; they were really sound and helpful about it all.
    Coming up to 4th anniversary, and we still have a good few knocking around. We may have over-bought :)
