A Great Deal for Business Cards.....to me

OK everyone, this is my first entry so take it easy. Expect no links, icons, etc.

I just wanted to share my info regarding some cards I bought online from colorcards.com. Their cards start at $59 and up it says. They also have an incentive....buy 500 and get 500. I received my order on Friday and they are of good quality. They are full color w/photo, two-sided and of quality stock paper. After shipping, etc. my total was a whopping $68. Imagine how excited I am to have 1000 cards for that price. Mike is the guy on the other side and was very helpful and accommodating. Check out the site and let me know if you feel the urge to place an order.

Abundant blessings,

Latonia

Hi, I noticed your comments on business cards. You might want to check out vistaprint.com They also have amazing deals on business cards and they have the large size postcards, calandars etc you can order. They do an excellent job, fast and INEXPENSIVE. I really love ordering through them, it's so easy!! Once you get on their e-mail list they send you notices for free items all the time. No, I don't work there, just like working with them! Good luck and thanks for sharing.

Unfortunately, I have to buy my cards through my brokerage's printing company, but that's not a bad price at all, Latonia. Good job on your first post. Where's the second? :)

Elizabeth,

Coming soon to a city near you.... but I don't want to post anything unless it is worth saying. Therefore, it may take me some time to get enough to share with others. Happy holidays to ALL.

Now give them away! Make it your goal to give them away as soon as possible. Let's see...1000 cards, 10 a day...that's 100 days worth of cards...right?

Congrats on your first post and thanks for commenting on my blog yesterday as well! I appreciate learning about deals, but I don't have to pay for my cards anymore as my broker buys them for me every year! I just got 3000 for this year!

I just wanted to offer info they may be useful to someone in our community. Business cards are a big deal to us but I am not as fortunate as some, Michael K. from B'more.

Karen M.: I appreciate you and your knowledge. I have grown accustomed to looking for your name. Is it possible to feel like you know someone online. :)

God bless and thank you ALL.

3,000 cards is all for a whole year, Michael? They are great business bringers. Might want to read the link I posted above about tips for getting rid of them.

Thanks for the tip on your new cards... My first card purchase was over $200 for 1,000 cards. I have to admit I did receive several comments on them. Since then I have been ordering from 123print.com I pick my own Tennessee mountain background from my own picture stock and fill in the info and my personal photo. They luck just as good and cold me around $50 for 1,000.
