As you may know, I love to take pictures.  Every Christmas, my holiday card is a photo or photo collage.  Since I started running, I have added a running photo or collage.

I decided to create them in Shutterfly because I store all my photos there.

Then I looked at the price and the options.  You had to order a box of 12.  I wanted 20 of #1 and about 6 or 7 of #2.  They cost about $10 each plus you had to pay shipping.  That’s not a lot but these days, everything is digital and I get fewer and fewer real cards.

So I decided to look at my second option – Walgreens where I have made several collages and photo books.

The bottom one is just a collage which cost about $.30 and the top one, I was able to order a box of 20 with 40% off for about $10. And they have same day pick-up. (No shipping fees) If I need more of #1, I will choose the collage option.
