    Default Mass Photo Printing??

    If wrong sub, please move.

    Looking at printing around 300-500 pictures from our OneDrive to put in photo albums for family members.

    Looked at Costco (0.19c), Staples (0.09c) and Walmart (0.11c). Is there any other options available that I may not have considered?

    Probably cheaper to make a photobook and print copies of those. We've used Vista print and mix book in the past. I think my wife likes mix book better.

    Never used them and just google'd but looks like 7 cents a photo for 500 photos of 4x6"

    If you print more then 300 with Costco and select ship to home it is $0.10 each.

    Printing individual 4x6's and then putting into photo albums sounds awful.

    Thanks for the suggestions!

    I'll look into the Photobook option and see if it makes sense.

    Bump.

    What are yall doing to have photos available in a physical format so you can browse through them like old times? Am I old school for even wanting to do this.
    4x6's are nice but I don't have time to put them into a photo album.

    I was thinking of creating 1 photobook per year as an alternative. Any other suggestions that don't involve looking at them on an electronic device.

    Was discussing this with the wife the other week there and I think we're going to do this. Grab a couple hundred photos, sort by date and print into small books.

    Annual photobook is a really nice tradition, and if you have your shit together, you can build the book and use Boxing day coupons to order for pretty cheap. My wife liked Mixbook

    Have used Blurb previously and the quality is good. The app they have for building the book is intuitive.

    What’s a good quality photo book place these days? I used to use the integrated apple service but since they abandoned it I haven’t found another of similar quality.

    have used Blurb in the past to make 3 books and they turned out great.

    havent made any prints in a while but I have a Instax Mini and Instax Wide printer, we have made prints with those and turned out great. not as detailed or as sharp as an actual photo lab but convenient and fast. pricey though at around 1$/print
