www.Visiondirect.com is having a deal for new customers: 25% off your first order with code 25NEW, and free shipping on all contact lens orders.  Prices are good even without the discount; with the discount, it's a steal.
Just used them - shipped fast, too.

I go by the bubbles; if there aren't any after 5 hours (and I need to go) I'll put them in.
Usually accurate.

I think it depends on how full you fill your case and how old your disk is.

would definitely not work for me recently, spoke to supervisors etc. They said its one offer or the other and its in the t&c's.
ETA: Im referring to getting 1800 contacts easy online rebate.

cheapest way ive found is to go to opticontacts.com and find how much they cost, then call 1800contacts and ask them to price match opticontacts.com. no questions asked and they are amazing! if a lens rips they will give you a replacement free and when/if you get a new prescription they will take individual lenses back :)
other then opticontacts.com i find replacemycontacts.com to be very cheap also to price match against

Just matched to 800-Contacts who matched and beat the price by 2%. 800-Contacts was charging $59.99 a box and went down to $40.13!

The disadvantage of 1800contacts.com was always not being able to claim mail-in rebates but as of January rebates are no longer available for any online purchase of Acuvue contact lenses so it kind of leveled the playing field. Unless you're getting one of the newer Cibavision lenses, there are no mail-in rebates for online purchases.

I still don't like going through the whole calling in \ price match route and just order online with a good coupon code. You can see which code is best depending on the lens you need plus the number of boxes you're getting at lensbob.com.

I buy all the time from http://www.visiondirect.com
I guess it depends on what you're buying but I get Acuvue 1-day 30 per box usually $25 but there's always coupons that will make it like $19 shipped.

Ditto Visiondirect is the cheapest I've seen, plus free shipping on the larger orders.  They have discounts often and they also have restaurant.com vouchers for $50 as a part of the deal.

Just used replacemycontacts.com to match with 800-Contacts. 800-Contacts matched the price +2% discount and matched the $45 rebate (year supply) as an instant credit.   8 boxes at $34.62 each.
