Passport Photos

[Ted in Halifax]

I went to Blacks Photography and asked about passport photos ... $22.99 per person. 25% discount for 3 or more people. Yikesss.

Walmart or Superstore next .... anyone have an idea where the best deal would be .... Getting 5 renewed.

I got my 2 DD's photos done at a little studio in the same plaza as the passport office (in Brampton, Ontario). They were only $15 (taxes in). And because I think majority of their business is passport photos - they have it down and fast (5 month old and almost 4 year old in a cranky mood and he got them first shot!)

Maybe look for a studio near the office's.

We got our passports done at Costco. We paid $6.99 each If not the super store was cheap also. Good Luck!

We got our passports done at Costco too for $6.99 each. Only had to wait about a half hour to get them.

CAA--we have CAA Plus and get free passport photos.

Costco for us. Best deal around.

Agreed with the suggestions to look near the Passport Offices. I renewed my Passport on my last trip home, since it's much cheaper and easier than applying from the U.S..

I was able to get them done for $10 at a place within walking distance of the Guy-Favreau Complex Passport Office in Montreal, and they were accepted on the first try. Compared to my Mom's last attempt - she paid $10 at Pharmaprix (a.k.a. Shoppers Drug Mart outside of Quebec), but ended up having the photo rejected because it didn't meet the requirements.

I do hear Costco is both good and dirt cheap, but I think you need to have a membership or have a member go with you to pay.

We just did ours at the Canadian Superstore photo lab. 9.99 each.

Do you have a costco near by? The PP photos are less than $7.

I do have a costco nearby, but I've let my membership expire. Looks like Superstore!

Used Shoppers' Drug Mart this summer (5 of us needed to renew) and had no issues ... I think we got them for 50% off and paid $9.99 each.

We have CAA as well so get them free, but, as suggested by other posters, we get our children's done at the photo place near the passport office. I think they charged $10 or 15, but we've had our children's photos rejected by Customs before because of smiling or not being able to see their eyes so it's much simpler to use the "onsite" expert

Just got them done today at Costco, still $6.99 ea. Totally forgot about CAA

 

[dopeyluvsgrumpy]

I have CAA plus and when I called the local office I was told passport photos were $9.50. I'll try another office today and see if I get a different answer.
