Tip - Creating cheap reading glasses: why not?

So here's my thought for cheap OTC reading glasses. One of my eyes needs +1.25, and the other +2.25. I hate to go the prescription route due to expense. Why not buy two pair of the same cheap reading glasses, one +1.25 and the other +2.25 and switch lenses? Has anyone done this successfully?
