Minimum payment is £2.30 for P&P.

If you want fancy texts and print on the bag you have to pay for that separately. You can get the basic picture on the front (the one thy use on the example) and a bare reverse side for "free" - just click on "remove sample text".

I can't find anything about a free bag anywhere on their website. Is there a link to the free offer somewhere?

Just watch you don't get caught to sign up for their 'club' at some thing like £9.95 per month!!

Been using them for months now with no problems whatsoever, I don't think they do that anymore.

Pay by paypal if you're worried anyway.

I've had the bag, (not bad) but I think the link is personalised.

ETA: there is a box to sign up to special offers on the homepage, that will get you the link no doubt, but I'd use a address you don't use much as they have a tendancy to send a lot of emails.

Hi,

Is the canvas bag nice? Can you have a photo put on it or just a logo?

Thanks.

It's a sort of logo I guess, but more of a picture, I had a horse picture, but there's a few to choose from.

I think you can upload a picture, but you have to pay extra.
Doesn't feel like cheap printing to me, but I'm not a expert.

Oh and you can remove the text bit if you don't want any

is it just me or can you not pick up very similar bags by walking in your local supermarket or charity shop , and pay less for the honour ??

The link got personalised when the offer ended.

Please do NOT sign up to this as you will get charged for it and it is very difficult if not impossible to get your money back. It appears at the end of any order you place.

If you read everything carefully and do not sign up for any offers you will be fine and once you have placed an order they automatically send you free/special offers all the time.


I've ordered from Vistaprint and depending on what you want, the offers are quite good and are worth the p&p costs even if it's quite high for the weight of the item ordered but I have never signed up for the offers as a friend of mine did, not realising she would be charged £9.99 every month for it and it was a nightmare cancelling and she did not get the money she had already paid refunded.

Completely different thing.

They can't charge you if they only have your email address, and like I said I don't think they do that anymore, I use them every month or so and have never seen anything to charge me.

As far as I can tell it was a S,D & R promo, which means it is a pop up. No pop up no problem.

I have also used them quite a few times but I pay the postage with a credit card , so they do have my information, maybe you pay the p&p charges another way?

Also, you have to give your postal address for them to post your item to, so they do have more than an email address.

It's good that you have not been charged but I still think it is worth warning people and as I said I have been very pleased with the items I've ordered.
