Hi
As Xmas is fast approaching, we are all trying to save abit as well as give at this time of year so it can be alittle tougher than usual.

Hubby and I decided this year we would give photo wall calenders to all our family as

1. what do you get the person with everything and
2. they will be looking at it all year round (hopefully ;)) and
3. thats about as personal and thoughtful as it can be,
so we hunted out lots of old and new family photos and have found that Vistaprint have an online offer on of a free photo wall calender, you only pay P&P, BARGAIN.

So we have ordered 1 calender at a time in order to get the offer for each calender, cheeky I know but we have even managed to get 10 free photo Xmas cards with each order at the same time, RESULT.

So no waiting in queues for us this Xmas as our shopping is now done :) all for the pricely sum of £36.

I think this is a great offer so thought I'd share it with you all.

Xmas time can be hard enough without the added pressure of spending.

Take care and enjoy xx
shy bairns get nowt, the worst your IP can do is say no!

I might pop off and make one for my Mum as she's forever asking for photos and it might keep her going for a while, thanks for sharing. x

How much did u guys pay for P&P? Think I'm a bit late to get them in time for Christmas without paying a silly amount. I did a quote first & the p&p seemed really high.

My calendar has cost me £2.50 - I did it myself, and all it cost was a pack of glossy paper and binder for it.....looks great !

I ordered mine a while ago and went for the cheapest postage.

I'd much rather get mine printed as the printer ink costs a fortune!
