Printing Pictures

As a mom, I know you must print pictures!  The best deal on pictures that I have found is at Walgreens.  If you start a folder on your computer for pictures that you want to print, you can upload them to Walgreens.com at your convenience.  I have found that it's best to do this as you take the pictures, so you always remember which pictures you have looked through to select the ones for printing!  

You can always get your 4x6 pictures for 9 cents each if you wait until they offer "Buy 25, get 25 free."  You can use this deal up to 5 times per account, so depending on how many pictures you need to print, always only print 50 at a time.  If you are left with less than 50, wait until you have 50.  They offer the deal pretty regularly, so don't worry!  The next best deal is 10 cents each, when they offer "50 pictures for $5."  If you must print pictures, you can use this deal.  The drawback to this is that you actually have to go to Walgreens to pick them up.

If you are printing 5x7 or 8x10 pictures, it is actually cheaper to print them yourself!  Occasionally, Walgreens offers a free 8x10, no other purchase necessary.  This, of course, is a great deal.  Watch my blog for when they have these deals, and take advantage!  Only 1 free 8x10 per account, per deal period, which is usually only a day, so watch carefully.

If you like photo books, Walgreens offers 25% off and 33% regularly, so put your book together, and wait until the deal period to order.  Shipping usually isn't too bad, and is cheaper if you order more than one book at a time.
