    Morning everyone :wave:

    And if anyone knows about vistaprint could you give me the lowdown, can you upload your own images etc? I saw a lovely notebook design on funky pigeon but they are expensive, could I screen shot cut the image and use it on a notebook on vista? I know cheeky... :rotfl:

    You can upload your own images but if borrowing from another site the picture quality may be comprimised!
    It also depend on what link you go through for free notebook as some only allow you to pick from their designs and others allow you to upload photos! Also depends on whether and what they charge you for photo uploads!

    Lots of links on Santa challenge page 48 I think but none for notebook thats further back somewhere!

    I made 2 orders yesterday free hat for ds for summer (diggers), free t shirt for friend daughters birthday (princess crown), free pen for auntie (chocolate lab), free mug for niece (purple horse) and a banner for friend daughters birthday, it says Ffions room and has her photo on and a pic of pink palace! paid in total just over a fiver! I am doing DS a digger banner for his room now!

    I have been out all morning and need to get some lunch cos I am starving!

    but came on to say - although savvy has already mentioned it - that I got my BP amazon voucher this morning so the points can be played at any time and not just Thurs to Weds.

    will be back later to catch up

    Yes hun I dont think I have signed up to anything though! I did see mum2ones comment but havent used vista since beginning of Jan so thought it was just half price postage as they probably have fewer orders at this time of year?

    I can't see anywhere on vista where I might have signed up. if you have reduced postage then it must be a general thing.

    Well done every on you are doin great.
    Legend you are doing brilliantly with the amazon vouchers.
    I am having a bad day.
    after the horrible message on dooyoo I went to wilkinsions to find out about my order that i had go an email to say it had been dispatched but not recieved
    Well it is lost.
    I am devastated as it was the peppa pig sets from the grabbit board.
    I bet some sale assistant decided they wanted it as it was a bargain. I am so annoyed!
    Did any one else on here order them and actually get them?
    I was sopleased to have some presents sorted but never mind.
    Looking forward to new ventures :beer:
  • Woo well done Legend, or should that be WOOOOOOHOOOOOO!!! ;)
