#88: STD alternative.

http://www.vistaprint.com/vp/ns/studio3.aspx?icparts=yes&cfs=-1&pf_id=064&combo_id=4298&combo1=904.100.18.11339113391370&gallery_id=64&category_id=11
has anyone else had a difficult time adjusting to the whole "STD" acronym? just wondering.

so i came across this site...that offers free business cards. i say free because as you know, nothing in life is really free. i can't speak of the quality, having never ordered these myself...but i think you get 250 cards for free and you pay shipping costs of $10 or so depending on urgency. i say these little cards are a good insert if you plan to send something out along with your STD's (ew!) or...as a magnet?...or...

i composed the mock up below but they do offer more...um...mature-looking templates to work with.

Vistaprint has some great deals. You just have to search for coupon codes!

The "free" 250 business cards have a vistaprint logo on the back. But, every so often they have a coupon link that offers 250 cards free without the logo.

I SCORED a month ago with an AMAZING coupon code. I purchased the envelopes for our invitations from vistaprint and I got 22 items FREE! And, they were actually free. The shipping & handling actually went DOWN once I added everything to my cart. Plus, I received 25% off the envelopes.

Check out everything I got:

Also, "STD" was hard to get used to. Now, I have to be cautious typing it on non-wedding sites! Hehe.

I use vista print for my business cards and the quality is great. Rosie is right, they do have a logo on the back if you go with the free ones but even if you go with the custom ones, they are still a good deal.

I get 250 cards, with my own design (so you can do any design, even use your own pictures) for something like $30 - including shipping into Canada. that's like 12 cents each. Still a very good price.

We used vistaprint.com for our STD (hehehe) magnets and they turned out awesome. I believe we paid about $40 for 100 magnets which included shipping & the fee to upload our self-created design & the proof fee. I got 25 more magnets free because one of the ones in my order was damaged. Vistaprint was really awesome to work with and incredibly fast. We uploaded our design, approved the proof, placed the order & recieved the magnets in less than 10 days and this was during the holiday season.

I use Vistaprint for just about everything. So yup, I am even using them for my wedding. I haven't gotten my stuff yet- it should arrive tomorrow- but since I've been using them for years I trust the quality will be excellent.
