I ordered the post cards last month - they are AWESOME!! They cost $5.25 for 100 glossy, color postcards w/ B & W backs...

Of course, I was forced to order the address stamp, labels and magnetic business cards too!

I still think Wetinkprinting.com has the best deal. It is $10 for 500 extremelly high quality business cards... out the door! Downside is they take 3-4 weeks to arrive and graphics are more limited.

I have gotten all my business cards from VistaPrint and they are always free (with $5.00 for shipping) if you choose from certain backgrounds and have their logo printed on the back. You get 250. I thought it was just a special for the first time you ordered but I ran out and had to get more and they were still free! The $5.00 shipping says it could take up to like 2 weeks to be delivered but the last time I got them in like 3-4 days, tops!
Definitely recommend them!

Okay, I'm confused! icon_confused.gif I went through the process of setting up my card, but when it came time to check out, I got the cards for $4.99 (250 premium), added glossy finish for $7.49, but when it comes to shipping, the free option is gone and the cheapest is $5.25 for slow shipping, bringing my total to $17.73. What am I doing wrong? Are you all really getting this totally free? Thanks for any help!

just tried it...and could get them free w/ just the $5.25 for shipping and glossy stock BUT only if I stuck totally to their stock design and did not customize in any way .. no font style or color changes, no logo changes, etc.

was at this web address to start process: free cards offer

Ok Doug-need help! I just want to put my name and something cute underneath it in the message section. I have Sweets Enthusiat there now but I'm not sure I like that. I don't want to make it like an advertisement just want to let peeps know in a subtle way that I'm into making the cakes, cookies, etc. Whatcha think?? icon_biggrin.gif

how about about something w/ pastery or baking in it?

(hmmm will have to puzzle on this for awhile)

Definitely get on Visataprints mailing list. as other's have said, they run sales all the time, but it varies from the regular cards being "free" (i.e. $5.25) to the premium ones being free. Hold out for the premium when you can because the designs are so much cooler. The cards I have now have a wedding cake on them. icon_smile.gif I love vistaprint!!

I appreciate any thoughts you might have-you are always so good at this and my brain isn't working tonight-clearly a lack of brownies which I need to make....mmmmm.....brownies icon_biggrin.gif

I also thought about sweets devotee.

sorry, but I too looked for shortcuts... no luck.

will just have to use IE for this site (and also for Hotmail!).

I just ordered address labels and notepads from Vista Prints on Wednesday afternoon, and I received them this morning!! Great service!! Although the free cards are rather generic, they do let you upload your own design for free to us if you choose to.
