64p for a 8x10? Can you tell me where as the cheapest I have seen for 8x10s is over £2.

I currently get 7x5s printed from Boots for 35p each.

I assume you're in the UK. Try getting an account at Asda.com for their photo section. You can upload images there, order prints etc and get them delivered to your house. At the moment when you sign up, your first 30 prints are free (plus delivery). They're also having a deal on today where 6x4s are almost half price, but you'd need to order more than 30 to benefit (since the first 30 are free anyway ;)) 6x4s are 15p usually I think, today they're 9p.

edit - just noticed you want 8x10s... the offer doesnt apply to those, but Asda is still cheaper than getting them developed in say, Boots.

After the walgreens thing I'm just not sending photos anymore unless I have one. I just ask for an auto and hope they send me one they have. Its more expensive to print the pisc than anything (at least 8x10)

Awesome. True taking them to Wal-Mart is cheaper, but if you can get a deal on photo paper like Kenny, it’s still cheaper. You could pay $60.00 for a 100 sheets of photo paper, and only waist the gas going once, or you could take them to Wal-Mart every time and have them printed off, but with the gas prices these days paying $60 at Wal-Mart once, or getting a deal off ebay is great. But that’s just my opinion.

I got the same treatment when I went to wal-mart, but after talking to the head photo lab guy about why I was printing them off, he was really nice about it!! :D Now that's the only place I take them, and on occasion, they'll ask me how my collecting is going!! :D it's so cool! {thumb2}

Same here, that's when I started printing my own. I bought 100 sheets of HP Premium Photo Paper off ebay for $15.00 and use that. Photos try out just fine.

I reckon that would be cheaper than buying them anywhere :)

Good luck!

Thats Kinda what I do, but after I find a pic on google, I print them myself on photo paper. Just make sure there not copyrighted
Photo paper is rather expensive, if you can I would just take them to a photo shop & get them done that way, it will probably work out cheaper, the most I have ever paid per photo was something like £0.64.

I know there are issues with copyright, but everyone seems to do it & no-one has ever had anything said to them, to my knowledge anyway. I do it all the time & I'll continue to do so :P

All the best,
