buy a digital photo printer, it will be cheaper in the long run... and this time, go to circuit city,
Thanks, adeel, I am hoping in the next few months I use the prepaid cards well and I don't need to buy a photo printer. UPDATE: I went to the Walgreens near the Worst Buy and the pimple-faced kid THERE was cool about me doing my pictures. I selected about 20 from the many I had and he says: "uuuhhhh... they will be ready in 1 hour, sir!" AWESOME. 1 hour??? I came home, spent some time with the family, went back and VOILA!, they had the pictures. Good quality on Kodak paper. Man, they're nice. at 29 cents a pop, not bad. I decide to go by Worst Buy and sure enough, after six days I placed the order, the prints were there. The pimple-faced kid there remembered me, said, "oh, yeah... the prints... let me check, sir... YEAP, they're here, sir...!" Cool. Finally. Not bad, not bad at all... KODAK ROYAL Paper. Let's use up the prepaid cards... let's... Snapfish and Walmart are next, until I find a RITZ Camera near me.
ive used Walmart the past 3 years, good quality stuff. The best thing about them, you can upload them from your computer, and pick them up in a hour. If you want your prints to be glossy, id suggest the 2-3 day service. The 1 hour prints are great also, but if you like the glossy finish, then do the 2-3 service. Sam's does pretty much the same service but a little cheaper. At Walmart its .12/print if you get the 2-3 day service, .14/print for one hour service. Compared to Sam's, its .11/print, but only if u have them delivered while its like .14/print also for 1hour service I tried photocheap.cc a few months back, and they werent that bad. I tried it because its was like .12/print back when Walmart was still .17/print. Since Walmart is the same price now, I stick with them.
Your advice is the opposite of what everyone else says. No cheap home printer is comparable in quality to a well-chosen store/online printer. Especially when you consider the change in quality as the inks run low and then out. Anyway. Check CNET's (www.cnet.com) ratings (and the other major web tech and photo sites - Google it) to determine which printer is the best. Coupons come ALL the time for all of these sites, as do free print offers. Check www.bensbargains.net, www.fatwallet.com for those. My experience with oFoto has been good, and ditto for Snapfish. Pass on the rest. Just because you have a Fuji camera doesn't mean your best results will occur on FujiFilm. Does it? Does your camera manual actually SAY that?
