Sunglasses are one of those things that are nearly impossible to find without a 2000% markup. I'm too lazy to do the research. Tell me your nerd secrets.

Every pair of sunglasses I’ve ever owned I purchased at a gas station or dollar store for $5 or less

Never bought sunglasses with enough forethought to order from Ali Express, I always buy them while already on a road trip/on the way to the beach when I go “oh fuck I wish I had sunglasses”

Are they still under $5 these days? At drug stores they're like $10-20. They junk quickly, and I can probably get ten of something similar in quality on AliExpress for $1.

I'm looking to spend a little bit more for something more robust and stylish. I thought there was some secret website for sunglasses but maybe that's just prescription glasses I'm thinking of.
