Default printing cards?

Where do you print your christmas cards? I'm working on designing ours and trying to find the best deal possible for ours!

I got mine done at Vista Print. I can get double sided flat 5X7s there and I like that. The price is 10 for $3.99, but you pay $4.99 for an upload fee (wish they would just add that in the price), $4.99 to get color on the backside and I paid $6.99 for premium paper. So all together I paid $33.96 for 40 cards with envelopes. I used them last year, too, and was really happy with them.

I print through WHCC & use their proof printing option. Makes it much cheaper & still amazing quality!

i used WHCC last year too and really liked my cards .. not sure if i did the proof printing option or not? i'll have to look that up! i want to get my cards done early this year! (i am just realizing that if i were organized and thinking properly i would have taken some pictures this AM in the snow!! LOL! that would have been perfect for christmas cards! it's pretty slushy right now ... )

I'm going to go through Vistaprint this year. I've got the front done and then doing a newsletter on the back.

The past 2 years I've used Vistaprint. Very happy with the cards they have printed for me

Before I even begin to tackle the Christmas cards I need to work on Landon's birth announcement....maybe I'll mail them together? lol I'm such a slacker!

I don't usually do Christmas cards, but I helped my sister with hers this year and used Snapfish. I was able to find a 50% coupon just by doing a Google search, so I think it wound up being a little less than $10 for 20 cards and envelopes. I have no idea whether this is a good price since, like I said, I don't normally do them, but she seemed pleased.

I usually just do a single side card, not folded, because I mount them on cardstock for mailing and include a newsletter on some cards and not everyone gets the newsletter. Persnickety has some good prices for prints, and I've been happy with theirs in the past, so I think I might go with them.

i love WHCC's quality, and they have an option for cardstock. persnickety's quality for photos can't be beat, and shutterfly is decent as well.

however, vistaprint ruined a set of cards i did for moving announcements, i won't use them again.
