Micah's Lunch: December 2010

Micah’s new description of most foods. At least when the fancy strikes him. Like his lunch today which was supposed to be a deconstructed ham and cheese sandwich, until he asked for peanut butter and jelly on the bread. After that it was peanut butter and jelly sandwiches with ham and cheese on the side. And I think it might apply to the many money saving opportunities at www.Shutterfly.com. First I will say I have used both Snapfish and Shutterfly. I think the quality of their products is comparable, but in ‘ease of use’ Shutterfly comes out far ahead of their competition. In so many areas their products are just easier to customize than Snapfish’s and don’t even get me started on changing the font! (If you have received a Snapfish gift from me, I chose that font because it is Snapfish’s default and either you can’t change all the pages at once like you can at Shutterfly, or I just can’t figure out how. FAIL.)

Back to money saving. My last post, the memory book I did at Shutterfly for 2009, got me a $25 gift certificate to use at Shutterfly! And you can get one too, i fyou have a project at shutterfly simply go to it, and then 'share' and it will pop up instructions. Oh, I thought of another way that Shutterfly is better than Snapfish- you can use multiple coupon codes on a single order. At Snapfish you can only use one. I intend to combine my gift certificate with a good sale to get my 2010 memory book for free/ super cheap. By the way, if you scrapbook and don’t have a stockpile, making photo books online is thousands of times cheaper and way easier. Of course, if you do it because you enjoy the craftiness of it, by all means, keep on with what you are doing!

This post is inspired by Shutterfly’s Christmas Cards, and the 50 I will get for free when I am done! So far I like this one, but I am holding out for better pictures:
