Blank Cd's

I am planning on getting some blank discs to put on the tables so that guests can download their photos of the day onto them. Does anyone have any ideas on where you can buy about 60 discs fairly cheaply and if anyone has done anything similiar did they use a poem to accompany them?

    Amazon. Cds are very cheap to buy. If you go with Amazon you often get postage free. Usually sell cds in packs of 50 you might need some covers/cases to go with them as large qualities normally come in what they call cake boxes. Plastic containers

    We did this, CD's are cheap from Tesco. I have about 20 left over that your welcome to? I can count them up
    I put them in pink plastic shell cases (from ebay)
    And got some business cards printed on Vistaprint for free in bright pink with the following in nice white writing:
    Take one if you please
    For memories of us together
    Burn your pictures on these CD's
    So we can cherish your photos forever

    Please post, or deliver to:

    Hope this helps?

    We are planning in doing the exact same thing. It makes more sense than the disposable camera as people will want to use their own. I was thinking about a little poem or nice wording, and your suggestion fits the bill exactly! Hoping I can pinch it too!

    Computer fairs. Last time I bought some they were about £10 per 100. (Quality ones, not junk.)
    And all the boxes, envelopes, containers ec at a FRACTION of shop prices.
