<p>Looking for suggestions … Fedex seems to be a small fortune (for a small package) … I suppose I should insure them as well.</p>
<p>Did you try UPS, USPS? You can check estimated costs by going to their website.</p>
<p>twinmom-
Aren’t you here in my hometown? PM me and I 'll see if I can help you-- I have an account with Fedex that offers a 41% discount on Fedex Express international shipping</p>
<p>jym626 ---- how’s your H’s leg?</p>
<p>And how are you holding up to his misery?</p>
<p>Sorry for the hijack OP. I know nothing about shipping…</p>
<p>jym626 - don’t think so … but thanks for the offer!</p>
<p>Oops- sorry for the mixup twinmom-- the big shipping discount is though a deal for members of USAA. If you or your hubby are members of USAA , open a fedex account-- they have great deals!</p>
<p>Thanks gor the question esobay-</p>
<p>DH is coming along-- he doesnt complain but I know he is not a happy camper. We go back to the Dr on weds and will hopefuly kow more then.</p>
<p>We got more bad news today about another relative of his (a cousin) who had gone camping in July and was not heard from since mid July. the outcome is not good. But – not to hijack the thread-- back to eyeglasses!</p>
<p>USPS has always worked well for us. Glasses aren’t very heavy so it should be pretty reasonable.</p>
<p>The eyeglass saga is over … It cost me $31 at USPS with insurance … would have been almost $90 at FedEx! Cross your fingers that they get there!</p>
