Holiday Gift Guide Part 3

Hello and welcome back to the third and final installment of our Merivale Vision Care Holiday Gift Guide! If you’re still working on your holiday prep, it’s all good, we’ve got you covered. Grab a hot chocolate, drop a candy cane in, then read on for some amazing treat-based options for you and your loved ones. We hope you’re hungry!

But first, let’s get the serious bits out of the way, so we can get on to the fun stuff: the treats. Think of this as your friendly reminder to use up your insurance benefits before they run out. For most folks the deadline is the last day of December. In case you haven’t heard the good news, we have two amazing offers just for you. When you purchase your premium progressives lenses, you will receive a $100 discount. If you’re in need of prescription sunglasses, you’re in luck. We are offering 50% off prescription sunglasses lenses when you purchase a frame.

While you’re here for your visit, be sure to pick up the perfect stocking stuffer for all the kiddos you plan to gift this season. Babiators are the coolest, essentially indestructible sunglasses for babies and kids. Not only that, Babiators are also available as blue light protection glasses for your littles, perfect for Zoom hangouts or online gaming. 

If you and your loved ones have a sweet tooth and love all things adorable and delicious, DAO Bake & Sip Café is the place for you. Located directly across from us on Merivale Road, DAO Bake & Sip Café offers adorable oversized Korean macarons filled with decadent cream filling and decorated with the most adorable critter faces. Their menu is extensive, offering both sweet and savory bakery options that make the perfect add-ons and desserts for any holiday meal or gathering. We highly recommend you stop in to DAO after your eye exam or glasses appointment for some seriously delectable eats and gifts.

For all the popcorn lovers in your life, make sure to pop by YOW Popcorn Co (no pun intended) for snack-able delights. This hand-crafted gourmet popcorn has been a delicious fixture at our trunk shows time and again. The popcorn is so good that even when we’ve had enough, we still go back for more! YOW Popcorn Co is a must for movie nights. We also recommend their popcorn for super fun hostess gifts. Stock up on seasonal flavours like sea salt caramel peppermint chocolate drizzle, and don’t miss the dill pickle or truffle parmesan.

If you haven’t checked out any of the local businesses mentioned in our Gift Guide Series, please be sure to do so. We know you’re sure to find something that you and yours will love. We at Merivale Vision Care wish you all the best for a wonderful, cozy, joyful holiday season full of life’s precious moments.
