About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, while a delivery driver was unloading new frames into America's Best Contacts & Eyeglasses, he noticed something strange: every time he placed a box on the counter, it emitted a soft humming sound like an old gramophone record playing in slow motion. Curious, the driver opened one box and found nothing unusual inside—just ordinary glasses. But as he closed his eyes for a moment, he heard the humming again, growing louder until everyone in the store joined in a synchronized dance to the mysterious tune. Turns out, it was just an old radio hidden behind the frames that nobody had noticed before.

2. One day, while stocking shelves with new lenses, a young clerk noticed something odd—a tiny pair of glasses hidden among the boxes. They weren’t on any inventory list and seemed impossibly small for human use. Curious, she showed them to her supervisor who shrugged it off as an old prototype from a supplier. But every time she looked away, the specs vanished back into thin air. Finally, one afternoon, they reappeared on top of an old display case, perched like miniature spectators. The next morning, when customers asked about 'the little glasses,' everyone laughed it off until a regular mentioned seeing them too—now the whole store was laughing—and nobody could believe how long they’d been there without anyone noticing.

3. One afternoon, as an old lady was trying on glasses in America's Best Contacts, she heard an unexpected announcement over the store’s intercom: ‘Attention, ladies and gentlemen—we’ve just received a shipment of super-powered lenses that can make you see through walls! Please return them immediately if you notice any unusual abilities.’ A confused regular came back later that day, asking if he could test the special lenses too. The staff smiled and said, 'Of course not, sir—those are for employees only!' He left muttering something about 'bad customer service,' but everyone knew he was secretly jealous.

4. One morning, while a delivery driver was unloading new frames into America's Best Contacts, he heard a voice from inside: ‘Hey, do you sell glasses that make your eyes look bigger?’ Curious, he looked around but saw no one. Then he noticed an old pair of eyeglasses on the shelf, winking back at him. He picked them up and answered, 'These might help!' A moment later, a regular customer walked in and asked, smiling, 'Do you have any glasses that make my eyes look bigger?'
