Grandchildren photo album ???

hi i dont really post on here very often, (but follow site often)
i was have been thinkin about this xmas. was thinkin that wanted to cut back even more this xmas than last year ( cut back lots thanks to everyones tips)
i struggle to cut back on the MIL's gift (hubby likes to spend money on her, even tho i dont on my mum)
i get the kids photos took often (my treat to my self, i like to get there photos done, but only when have money for it)
my dad gave me vouchers for my xmas/birthday (5 days apart) to get kids photos done (he noticed i hadnt done it for a while and knew how much i liked gettin them (i almost cried when i opened them).
i still havent used them as not really had the money/time to go (want a proper family one, not just ones of kids) but will prob go during school holidays.

(sorry ramblin on here)

i was thinkin of gettin all the grandparents a nice photo album (and include some of the photos, and they can put all the others i have gave them over the yrs in aswell.

has anyone seen any traditional photo albums (all photos diff size so the slip in ones are no good)
with "my grandchildren" on them.

(the cheaper the better as always)

thanks for any help u can provide.

    If you have an option of digital prints, you could make your own photobook on one of the photo sites. You can make what looks like a real book, with a hard cover & bound. You can personalise the front covers too.

    I have books from photobox & truprint/snapfish. There is not much difference in the quality but i find truprint much easier to use and you have more options (I love the magic layout feature). I have registerd with both so that i get a weekly email with special offers.

    I tend to make up a photo book online every so often and then wait till the special offer to buy it. Sometimes it is bogof/3 for 2 or recently I bought a 75% off credit voucher.

    I find that it works out much cheaper to make a photo book than to print all of my photos.
