Cheapest way to print 1500 photographs?

Jonny Chee · 20 Sep 2013 at 17:40

My partner has 1500 photographs on a memory card that she wants to print off.

Asda will charge 5p each as there are over 200.

Does anybody know if there is a cheaper way of doing this?

Thanks!

not printing them?

I doubt you can print it yourself for 75 pounds, decent ink costs alone 25 quid and it wont last long.

Ha ha. Good answer. I've already tried that approach.

Unfortunately she insists on them being printed.

What size? 6 x 4?

I suggest you grit your teeth and get out cash... Make sure she pays back the favor you know

i dont understand why you would want that many in all honesty, but women's logic and all that.

got to some private photography places, they might do ya a deal, i know when i did 250 ( not all for me) a local place charged less than the supermarkets.

Independant shop ask for a quote.
Truprint?
Snappy Snaps?

Looking online 5p seems to be the cheapest, but there are deals to get the first 100 free etc.

What are you going to do with hard copies of 1500 pictures :O

£75 sounds like a damn good deal for 1500 photographs.

Put them all in 15 photo albums of course.

And then put them in a cupboard...

Scougar · 20 Sep 2013 at 18:28

Does she really want all 1500 printed? Has she actually sorted them? Where on earth are you going to display that many pictures?

D.P. · 20 Sep 2013 at 18:31

Make the photos really really small, maybe 1x1cm then you can fit hundreds ona single A4 print!

Nah she will take a picture of them all so she has them on her iPhone.

She has a bit of a photo obsession so unfortunately they have to be printed out and put in albums.

She has another 3500 to do on the next memory card. :eek:

Taking her to be cured of that obsession would be cheaper than printing 1500
