    Sorry ladies but another vista Q. What delivery option do you all normally use? I was going to choose the 21 day one as it's the cheapest option.

    I use the 21 day too - usually it comes in about a fortnight. :)

    Thanks Elysia. Have you had good experiences with them? I've read a few threads on here where people have been charged more than what they thought there total was. I've just got 4 free products in my cart, total 68p for photo uploads, so I'm expecting to be charged for this plus postage.

    can you only get the free vista stuff through a personal email or is there a code you would be willing to pass on (pretty please?)

    I've ordered loads of things - I've always been happy with my items. The only time I had any trouble, I'd uploaded a portrait photo in a place where it should have been landscape. I expected them to move the photo down, to get the face in, but they only printed the middle bit. I phoned them up, they altered it, and sent me a new one out free of charge.

    Some people were disappointed, but it's free, and you're only paying the postage, so it's not a lot to lose. Like I say, I've always been happy with mine. I've been charged the right prices too - the only fiddly bit, is where you go through TCB, to try and get cashback too - that pushes the prices up - tracking is hit and miss that way - so now I just don't bother with cashback. ;) Give it a go - hopefully you'll be as pleased as I am.

    Moomi - when you register they send you links to loads of free stuff, but If you register on the site now, then look at the top left, it should have a list of free stuff. you can add four free things to your cart per order (not per month - so you can do multiple orders of 4 things every day if you wanted ).

    Nicnax, I have ordered loads from Vistaprint for presents for Xmas this year. I was ordering them earlier in the year and going through Top Cashback to get cashback on the orders as well but I am not sure whether they still do the same cashback as they were doing back then. They were giving £5 cashback I think for every order so it was working out the stuff was practically free although I had to wait about 3 months before I got the cashback. When I got near to the end of my spending spree I found that when I put the stuf in my basket and then went through TCB it was converting all the free stuff to full price so I came out and went back in and just ordered it paying postage and not going for the cashback. I think some on here and on the sister thread have still been ordering and getting cashback but I am not positive.

    I have been using Artscow since I got the referral from the someone on the sister thread (might have been this one, cant remember). I have found their things are nice and doesnt work out dear. I ordered a photo book for my daughter for her 30th birthday, you can lay out the photos how ever you want and add embellishments and everything, make them look really nice and it had hard cover. Came to less than a tenner for the book, 8" x 8". I have ordered two of the GS's playing cards now with their photos on them, they came to just over £5 a pack. There are lots of other things on the site I want to get too. I am in the middle of making another photo book for YD for Christmas, I just need to make a few more pages to fill up the book.
