I know it's been asked before, but Xmas cards?

The damn search function SUCKS.

I want cardstock-type cards and don't want to pay a flipping fortune for them.  Last year I used tinyprints and LOVED them, but they're so damn expensive.  

Recs for cards, por favor?

Re: I know it's been asked before, but Xmas cards?

  • Well I ended up using Mixbook this year  and was very happy with them.  I actually did a mix of those, which were cardstock, and some from Walgreens which were photo paper, because my list got a little OOC this year and I had to do a second printing (I used the same text and pic on both cards.)

    I don't know how they compare in price to tinyprints - but it is an option worth checking out.

  • We used Vistaprint and I'm happy with them.  You can upgrade your paper and they typically have a sale (we got 25% off ours and free shipping).

  • Ours are Vistaprint also and very reasonable. 
  • Check out peartreegreetings.com, they are often about $1/card including envelopes and return address printing, and you can usually find a coupon code too for free shipping or something like that.
  • We also used Vistaprint and I'm very happy with them.

  • Mpix.com is the consumer branch of a pro lab. I haven't personally used them but they've been highly recommended to me.

  • I just ordered ours from Ritzpix.com and will pick them up at our local Wolf Camera, so I haven't seen them yet, but the price was definitely reasonable.

  • I think so. I printed a 4x8 card of my own design for a gift certificate but the quality was really good and they had good customer service.
