Digital Photos at Costco

I had some regular 35mm developed at Target last week. They turned out beautiful. I just happened to drop them off there because I was going by. Usually I go to Walmart. But these pictures were so nice that I think I will start using Target more often. They don't do digital, though. I am going to try Costco for that. I have one of those little Memory Sticks from Sony. (It's a Sony camera.) I wonder if they can do those to? star2fire

I'm not a member there (it's like Sam's Club, right?). Do you know if they do the same thing for digital picture uploads? For the same price, I mean?

I've been checking out places online, as I want to send pics with baby announcements next month and the cheapest I've found so far is Photoworks.com for .29 a print.

Just another suggestion, I use a company called desert sun media

to print all of my digital photos. I uploadthem to their web site from my computer. They are 29 cents a print but thequality is exceptional. The prints are 4 1/2 x 6 which is what a digitalprint size truly is, so you don't get any part of your picture cut off. Ilove this company, I pay a little (usually around $4.00) for postage buteven after trying other companies I always go back to them.. Another thingabout them, after Christmas my hard drive crashed and I lost all of mypictures because I hadn't burned them to CD yet but I had uploaded them todesertsun and I emailed them and told them I lost them and they burned a CDfor me and mailed it to me for free! I am forever grateful because it wasmy baby's first Christmas. Good luck in whichever you choose :)Lori K. NC

Dawn, Sam's has the same machine as Costco. The price is also the same (19 cents for a 4x6). I use Sam's all the time and I've been very pleased with them. You can also get enlargements and I think a 5x7 is 96 cents.

I just renewed my sam's club memebership, and they gave me a coupon for free digital prints (24 pictures). They have to be on the memory stick (which I usually dont keep them on there long - just upload them to my PC for printing, but after my baby shower, maybe I will get them printed out.

Of course, the coupon is good for a year, and I don't think I will run out of pictures to print in the coming year. LOL

Suggestion - I've found that having 3 memory sticks helps. I have two large ones and one 8mb one that came with the camera. When I want to have pictures printed I download everything on one of the sticks, clear it off, then put what I want to print on it. That's what I take to Costco.

Some Costcos have a terminal where you can download from a memory stick (both kinds), a CD, a floppy disk, or even from your camera if you bring your USB cable. Then you don't have to leave your memory stick with them. I suppose Sam's Club could have the same. They're new and not all of the stores have them yet.

Sam's club is great. 20 cents a print.
