Digital Photo prints at Boots

Options
Hi

Boots have some sort of special offer on prints from digital camera media, works out at half the usualprice i think.

6x4 = 20per copy and 7x5's-25p per copy. Though If you do 50 prints or more it works out at 10p per copy ( i think those are 6x4's)

These are theBoots machones and it runs until 5th May i think.

Also, the Kodakprinting machines prices for prints have reduced to 24pper copy (6x4), the next size up is 8x6,but i dont know the priceof these- or if the price per printcoomes down, for multiple prints.

Apparantly, the Boots machines have more ofa "glossy" finish whereas the Kodak machines have a "matt" finish.

    I get my digital photos in Tesco. 6x4 = 15p each. I'm sure if you order a large enough quantity it reduces to 5p a print although I'm not sure of the quantities.) maybe 50???

    This isn't really that cheap a deal. If you keep you eye out on the likes of Photobox and Pixmania they have far better deals. I got 100 5x7 prints for £5 from Photobox the other day, and 6x4s were even cheaper.

    Anything over 10-12p is too expensive even for 5x7s. icon7.gif

    how did you get those from photobox? I've just had a look as I need to do a bulk order and they are quoting 20p each or 15p if over 250 prints?

    You need to keep an eye out for special offers. The one I mentioned was about 2 weeks ago. If you can't be bothered checking back at their sites then you can register with them and then they email you with any offers. I've found both Photobox and Pixmania have very frequent special offers - some of which are better than others, but they are mostly good ones!

    The picture quality of Photobox is certainly better than both Boots and Tesco's, and delivered in 24 hours.

    For small numbers of pictures, I find Klick’s prices good. Their in-store 2-day photos are the same prices as on that page, but without the postage cost, of course. The fixed cost of postage is the one downside to the Internet companies.

    Klick’s prices for 8”x6” prints seem particularly good. I’ve always liked the fact Photobox have done 6”x4½” prints – the correct aspect ratio for digital cameras. 8x6s also have this aspect ratio. Now that entry level digital cameras have resolutions high enough to fully justify making 8x6s (2400x1800, plus), I find they make the 6”x4” or 4½” prints look rather sad in comparison.

    The quality from Klick seems fine, as well. The processing machines in my local shop are from Fuji and the paper’s the same Fuji Crystal Archive paper that Photobox use. The prices for 8x6s done in 20 minutes are 33p for less than forty, 29p for forty or more.

    hiya, try snapfish.co.uk they give you some photos free to start with, reccomend a friend (who doesnt have to buy) and you get more free ones, you pay the postage which is 99p but as ive just ordered 30 photos for that its not bad
