| We were thinking of doing some personalised calenders of all three grandchildren for Christmas. I was looking at truprint and their prices as that's where I normally shop and I know they're a good quality. Had one thing from photobox and wasn't that impressed. Just wondered if people had made these and had any suggestions of other places to look

| When I did one I just bought a calendar from boots that u insert the photos in yourself I keep getting leaflets from lovefilm about getting one for 99p from vistaprint. I think vistaprint is supposed to be good. I think you go to vistaprint.com/lovephotos or something like that |

| I got mine done at vistaprint and they cost about £3.70 each which is a bargain as I only paid p &p x Chose the slowest delivery which is 21 days but they always email and say it gets sent early so get it with 2 weeks x |

| Thanks. Are the vistaprint ones any good? I noticed they had 50% off at the moment (my class are doing an exam in silence and I'm bored!) |

| Yeah, I get them every year from Vistaprint and they are brill. Even get to choose backgrounds/calendar theme and you can put important dates on there. I put little cupcakes on birthdays xxx |

| Thanks. More interested in quality than price but don't see the point of paying more than necessary. Will have a look at vistaprint tonight |

| i really like snapfish, we did a load last year and the quality is good (you do have the 'snapfish' name on it though, at the back). ours were good quality, and there are always offers coming up to christmas. we did get one where the printing wasn't quite right and it looked sort of blurred/scratched if you looked closely jus ton the front page. i emailed them and my account was credited with a free calender so i could replace it - added bonus was because it was only the title page we took it off and still used it i also like that you can print everyone's birthdays and things on the dates, dont know if you can do that with all of them |

| Hmm the calendars on snapfish appear to be the same style and price as truprint so I wonder if they're the same company. Will have a play around later though and see which do the styles I want |

| if you think you can risk it its probably worth leaving it til the first week in december because im sure that's around the time they really knocked the price down last year x might be a bit late tho! |

| the quality of vistaprint are excellent.
I took all my aunts photos from fb and vista said they didnt recommend I used fb pics as the quality isnt all that great. but I thought hey for a couple of quid what harm can it do trying. and the quality was just amazing.

| Apparently that offer has finished, but you can get 3 for the price of 1, so thats £4.99 for all 3.
