Santa in a Hawaiin shirt was the only reason I did them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-you-pay-for-pictures-with-santa#post-2385159 Fri, 11 Dec 2015 00:34:20 +0000 ALV91711 2385159@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>$30 and we got 1 5x7, 2 3.5x5 and 8 wallets.</p> <p>There was a couple different packages to choose from but this was the best so we could send to grandparents aunties. And they printed us an extra 5x7. </p> <p>We are also going to a free one this weekend. </p> <p>Last year we just did the free one and then all I had was one photo and couldn't send it to the grandparents. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-you-pay-for-pictures-with-santa#post-2385144 Fri, 11 Dec 2015 00:06:34 +0000 Finfan 2385144@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>$22 for two 4 by 6 prints. That included a shutterfly gift card. LO is obsessed with Santa and there was no one in line so she talked to him for probably 10 minutes and was just beaming. That was worth the money to see her so happy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-you-pay-for-pictures-with-santa#post-2385101 Thu, 10 Dec 2015 23:05:15 +0000 Mrs. Goose 2385101@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>$7 for a 5x7 as a fundraiser at a local school. Worth it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-you-pay-for-pictures-with-santa#post-2385068 Thu, 10 Dec 2015 22:36:52 +0000 MsMini 2385068@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our favourite photographer does Santa sessions, they start at $75 for 30 minutes, and 1 kid (each additional is $25), you get 5 high res images (though she actually sent us 32 this time LOL). The pictures are amazing though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-you-pay-for-pictures-with-santa#post-2385066 Thu, 10 Dec 2015 22:35:44 +0000 sapphire 2385066@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We went to a free one. Really great true beard Santa with a nice setting. Great first experience for our LO. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-you-pay-for-pictures-with-santa#post-2385060 Thu, 10 Dec 2015 22:30:06 +0000 kayakgirl73 2385060@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Free at my companies children's Christmas party. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-you-pay-for-pictures-with-santa#post-2385052 Thu, 10 Dec 2015 22:18:35 +0000 Mrs.KMM 2385052@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never heard of paying for Santa pictures! Ours were free. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-you-pay-for-pictures-with-santa#post-2384861 Thu, 10 Dec 2015 20:28:37 +0000 LilSprinkles 2384861@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>$15 for one at the mall. We also have a few free ones from school, events, or our camera. We always do the mall one because it has always been the same Santa. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-you-pay-for-pictures-with-santa#post-2384854 Thu, 10 Dec 2015 20:25:16 +0000 Ginabean3 2384854@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>$15! It was at a nice mall with a "good" Santa. $15 was the cheapest package, got a 5x7 with it and pretty much unlimited pictures with my own camera (iPhone). Oh and it came with two tickets to ride Santa's train. Great deal if you ask me! Previous years we sprung for the packages that came with a cd....um, our laptop doesn't have a cd drive lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-you-pay-for-pictures-with-santa#post-2384831 Thu, 10 Dec 2015 20:02:09 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 2384831@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>$8 for a 5x7. Then you also get a $10 off code for shutterfly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-you-pay-for-pictures-with-santa#post-2384827 Thu, 10 Dec 2015 19:59:18 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 2384827@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It was free at a local toy store. They take pictures on an iPad and email them to you. You can also take pictures on your own camera. They take donations for a toy drive and Santa delivers the toys. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-you-pay-for-pictures-with-santa#post-2384818 Thu, 10 Dec 2015 19:53:24 +0000 mrsbubbletea 2384818@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just went and didn't realize how iy worked... It was 30$ and that was the only package. One large two medium 8 small. Way more than I wanted, especially since baby cried and I personally am not into the funny factor of sad crying it babies with Santa. He doesn't usually cry so he was obviously terrified of this strange giant man. I felt horrible! Of course he's fine now. We also felt like we had to pay cause we didn't understand how it worked, you actually can't use any personal cameras or phones. Then he had the photos printed out and we felt obligated. In hindsight we totally could have said no thank you. </p> <p>Eta it was obviously intentionally sneaky, we looked back and the price wasn't posted anywhere. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-you-pay-for-pictures-with-santa#post-2384800 Thu, 10 Dec 2015 19:41:06 +0000 babypugs 2384800@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Free at our crappier mall.
