If you enter Coupon Code VAL2550 at checkout (I think it's still valid) you'll get 50% off on orders over $100 and 25% off orders over $50. Laura:

Not sure if you have them there. Their quality is fantastic. You upload your pictures and then pick them up in the store if you like. They always have them done in less than an hour! www.walgreens.com I use Walgreen’s. Not sure if you have them there. Their quality is fantastic.

I have to admit I have over 3,000 pics on my computer, but I get batches of about 200 printed at a time. 12 cents a print and 99 cents shipping. So about $20 for 200 photos. I don't have any idea if it would be the same shipping price for Canada or not. But I've been very happy with the quality, and they're pretty quick too! I LOVE Winkflash!

But I like to print my own. I like to crop and resize them, get the red out. Mix and match them together. <br/><br/>Besides, is it about quality or is it about printing them and enjoying them. Who really cares about the quality. They are cute, even if they are not printed professionally.<br/><br/>All the photo shops mentioned are good. I don't much care for Walmart. I can honestly say, I personally have not used any. My family members have. The like Walgreens. I’m good for downloading them into the computer too. But I like to print my own.

I have them all organized into folders for each month, separate folders in those ones for each occasion the pictures were taken. But, still. I have a Kodak printer too and love it, but it's too spendy to be printing more than 50 pictures. I've had horrible results from Walmart too. I love love Snapfish though! They also send you amazing deals all the time and with my first order I recieved 50 of my prints for free. If you refer friends and they join you can get up to 500 free pix I think it is? So great offers, fast shipping, and great prints.<br/><br/>I've heard good things about Shutterfly too. I've never tried it out yet though. Good luck! =) I have the same problem, thousands of pictures living on my computer.

You are not alone.

I used snapfish when I mainly used a 35mm film camera.

Now that I have a digital camera, I have never printed at all.

I think the fact that I share photos online makes me lazy.

You can do this Laura! You helped pull me back from my edge...and so the least I can do is help you. ;) <br/><br/>One strategy (after you pick your place of uploading and printing) is to print off major holidays and birthdays. Put them into scrapbooks or archival safe albums. Then move on to a month by month system of picking 'everyday' shots. <br/><br/>Pick a day a week to updload and send to print. Then have a friend over to scrap with. Makes it more fun and adds accountability. <br/><br/>I know it's already been mentioned but BACK-UP your photo files...like right now. You won't be sorry you did, but you'll be sorry if you don't. <br/><br/>Have fun remembering the year gone by. You can do it!! You’ve gotten some great ideas here from the looks of these comments.

I know it’s already been mentioned but BACK-UP your photo files…like right now. You won’t be sorry you did, but you’ll be sorry if you don’t.

Have fun remembering the year gone by. You can do it!!

That’s my only suggestion. I’m terrible at actually getting the pictures from my computer to target though.
