Would you like some free photos? Miss Thrifty reader Amy pointed me in the direction of a website called Free Photo Printing – 455 Free Photo Prints, which does what it says on the tin.
Many of the photo developers – Truprint, Boots, Jessops et al – offer sets of free prints for new online customers. You just have to pay the postage (usually around the £1 mark). This site lists all the companies, the numbers of free prints available from each one and the postage costs.
The links take you to the companies’ homepages, which can be a little annoying because you have to click around, but it’s certainly a site to bookmark.
The best offer right now is Jessops‘: 40 prints (6″ by 4″) and 99p postage. You also get a voucher for £6 off their fancy photo paper photobooks.
Actually, if you are on the hunt for thrifty Christmas gifts, Jessops have got a couple of good offers at the moment. Until 23 November 2009, you can get 20 per cent off their personalised photo calendars.
Thanks Amy!

Photo calendars are an excellent gift, especially for grandparents.
I gave my folks a calendar full of pics of my kids last year. It went up in their kitchen so i guess that was a result!
Another good one is freephotoprinting.net
I took advantage of this offer, but my photos came back very dark. I wouldn’t go with Jessops if I was you, but it’s definitely a good way to find out if a company isn’t very good!

Jessops do have the option of having the prints sent to your local store, which if you have one close enough can save a penny or two in postage costs. The idea of free photo prints is a great one!
