| Where to make a customized calender locally?
Hi all,
I don't know if this is the right place to ask..if it isn't mods can move it.
Anyways, I was wondering if you guys know of any places locally that offer a calendar making service..I was thinking of make a calendar for the gf as a present and I'd hope to use pictures of us on the top half and regular calendar pages on the bottom?
I know you can do it online but I don't want it to look cheap printed off just normal A4 paper or whatnot. I'm not sure if places like Staples or or Fed-Ex Kinkos or even some photocopy places would have this service?
TIA!

Staples has this service. My office did this a year ago. basically upload 12 photos, select layout, pay and tell them where you want to pick up...
here you go http://www.staplescopyandprint.ca/Pr...endarInfo.aspx

I get calenders done at Blacks every year. Go for the high quality one. The print and paper quality is great.

My wife gets them for free online every Christmas (she might pay a couple bucks for shipping) and sends them to her relatives. I'll ask her tonight which site and if it's available all year round.

I've been making personal calendars for ages. Its really the best sentimental present!
I do mine at Walmart, you can process it online, it takes about 5-7 business days. http://www.walmartphotocentre.ca/
Cost is only maximum $20 depending on size, images etc.
The other cheaper route is Vistaprint.ca but you'd have to pay for S&H. http://www.vistaprint.ca/ |

Check out superstore.
They have kiosks at the electronics/tv department, and I made a calendar / photo collage for the gf for our anniversary.

It's 25% off at london drugs right now but knowing how they charge twice as much for normal photo printing I doubt it'd be the best place to go Posted via RS Mobile |
