My free cards from Shutterfly

I LOVE Shutterfly!  Have you figured that out yet?  Well, I just ordered my 50 free folded 5x7 cards (so excited they were included in the deal) and it was a savings of $71.50!  I was so excited about the card I picked out.  It is one of their new "story" cards, so I was able to write my Christmas letter right in the card.  What a fabulous idea!  No extra printing this year so I can save on printer ink and paper.  I'll be sending this particular card to friends and family who are far away.   And I also got a promo code for free shipping, so that saved me a lot too.  So it was a $0.00 total!  Just what I like!  If you need cards, take advantage of the deal for bloggers.  Read about it here!

Cheap (nearly free) Christmas Cards

So, I was debating if I should wait to see if Seehere.com would offer free cards again like last year, but I had heard about some good deals from Snapfish so I went ahead and ordered some.  If anyone does here about the Seehere.com offer, please let us know.  It was in November that they came around last year.  Not sure if any of you acted on the opportunity to get a $10 credit last week from Snapfish, but you can use that money for your card orders.  I used these two codes, BABIES and BABYMAIL, in two separate orders to get a set of 20 4x8 cards, $14.99 value, for free.  You just have to pay for shipping which is $5.99/set.  I believe these codes expire on Oct. 31st.   Thankfully, my $10 credit applied to the shipping charges, so after each order, I only paid $3.48 out of pocket for 40 Christmas cards.  Yeah!   I am also going to use many of my Pampers points from the Gifts to Grow Rewards program to get a free set of 25 cards from Shutterfly too.  So I will be well on my way to having my Christmas cards taking care of for less than $5!  Not bad!
