    JCPenney. We did portraits there with groupon the total for the pictures and 60 cards was about $30. Pictures weren't great but the price was.

    I went with vista print this year. 60% off, so they were $11 for 20 cards. They even had some nice photo cards at $7 for 20. I did however, order calendars from shutterfly this year at $3 a piece.

    We order from Costco every year. $30 for 50 double sides cards is pretty good, and the quality is decent.

    I also ordered an additional set of 25 for free through Amazon Photos. Valid for Prime members and includes free shipping! Earlier in the week they had a deal for 50 cards for $17.50 or so. Review are good too.

    I usually order from Simply to Impress. They send out 30% off coupons so that helps a little.

    @Mrs. J: I just did the same. They would have normally cost about $82, so $25 and pick up in person is a steal!

    Usually Shutterfly but they screwed up my shipping last year so bad that I think I'll use someone else this year...

    We use Shutterfly! They always have coupons, so you can get a good deal on the cards. And I like the design/quality of the cards. I've also used Tiny Prints, which is owned by Shutterfly, if they have a design I like better.

    I usually use shutterfly or vistaprint but this year I did a groupon for photoaffections. They came out really nicely IMO.

    @catlady: I'm using Paper Culture for the first time this year. I love that they add your addresses for free. And they plant a tree for every order! All Holiday cards are 50% right now through tomorrow!

    @josina: awesome, thank you! assume you are reasonably happy with the quality and are a picky graphic designer?

    @LCTBQE: Yes, the quality is really good- I've been using them for years and if there is ever an issue with cropping or color (which has happened) they're really good about sending replacements.

    We used Tiny Prints last year, and I loved the cards, but they were horribly expensive.

    We were going to go with Shutterfly this year, but we wanted to order them Sunday night, and they were having issues with their website. So we tried Snapfish and ended up getting 80 flat cards printed front and back with our return address on the envelopes for $50.

    I just ordered mine at Shutterfly. I consistently use Shutterfly because I've never had a problem and they always look good. This year, I sprung for the envelopes to be addressed too. I updated my address book perfectly, so that all I had to do was select the addresses. When I receive them, I just have to stamp the return address and put a stamp on it.

    I did Shutterfly, I had a ridiculous number of coupons to use. I ended up doing my cards spread across 3 orders to maximize the coupons. I got 50 cards (with a few upgrades) for about $25. It's good enough for me.

    Now I just need to finish designing my calendar that goes to all of the family....
