Sears for Professional Pics?

[summerrluvv]

I'm taking the kids for xmas pics tomorrow. They have a coupon online that is $9.99 for a trial package of 35 pics. It doesn't say what size pics are included though. Does anyone know?

Not sure about sears, but I'm taking my dd's to Target tomorrow for their xmas pics. I have a coupon for $7.99 which includes:
2 - 8x10
2 - 5x7
4 - 3 1/2 x 5
24 wallets
6 billfolds

I do Target all the time and have good luck with it - I'm sure Sears' package is similar

Bumping. Someone will know. It's been a long time since I've gotten a package from Sears. (I do like Sears.) I'm not up to date on it.

 

[summerrluvv]

I actually just called...stupid me didn't think to do that

It's

1 8x10
2 5x7
16 walllets
16 of the tiny ones

Not too bad for 9.99. Plus there is a coupon for a free 10x13 that CAN be combined with the trial package coupon, so I'll use that too and hopefully walk out only spending $9.99! Hard to do in a portrait studio I know!

Now wish me luck on getting a good shot with a 7 month and 8 year old!

I am not sure the exact numbers but it was similar to what was posted about Target. I do know that it's only for one pose, for additional poses you have to pay the full package price which is still fairly reasonable in my opinion.

I was thinking about trying Sears for Alex's 6 month pictures. I should get on that soon since he's almost 6.5 months!! Let me know what you think.

Make sure you don't have any sitting fees above and beyond that $9.99. It has been a couple of years since we did pics at Sears and if I recall correctly there are usually sitting fees or you can buy a card that covers the sitting fees for one year. Smile Savers?? Something like that.

My experience with Sears is the first shot they give no thought and all the rest they try to get your child's personality. SO you are such with the cross eyed kid pose for the cheap package while the real pics are terrific.

Can you tell I don't like sears

I was under the impression that you could pick the picture for the package special but it was just one pose, the rest had to be full price. Maybe that's wrong??

We went to sears a couple of months ago for the baby's 2 month pics and didn't have an experience like that at all and I used a free 10x13 pic at that time along with the $2.99 sheet coupon. I had a choice as to which pic I wanted to be my free one. I'm pretty certain that you can pick from all the ones you view on their computer when you are done. I don't know that it used to be that way though when DS was a baby.

I'm a member of the smilesavers club so I won't have to pay the sitting fee fortunately

I think that's the way it is. The coupon reads that additional sheets are 19.99 (which is actually more than their normal price of 7.99). I just want one pose of the two of them though to hang on one of my empty walls!

Oh and last time we were there, they didn't want the coupons until the end so they have no idea which coupons you have until you select and pay.

The Sears I went to had the fine print that read, "Package must be from the first accepted shot." Something like that. My way around that was to say, "I don't like that shot, lets try again.". I just kept saying it till they got one I really liked. Sometimes they got one early. Other times not.

You can now choose which pic you want for your package it doesn't have to be the first pic! They did a great job with my daughter a few months ago!

 

[OceanAnnie]

What a pretty girl! They did a great job! I like the brown background and the leather seat. I'm going to have to check out Sears again.

I am sold. It's closer to my house than anywhere else. I am going to go next week. Now do I need an appointment??? I can go anytime during the week.

It's easier to have an appointment if you ask me.. last time I went someone walked in and there was a 4 hour wait.. it gets really bad during the holiday season!

You can book the appointments online and I bet the weekdays aren't too busy right now.

 

[DMickey28]

I just booked one for Tuesday at 1pm. I wish they had early morning ones as that's when DS is at his best but I figure 1pm will be just after his morning nap so that'll be good.

Can you bring different outfits or do I have to pick just one?? I think that I want to do two different sessions. One for his Six Month pictures and then one for holidays ... maybe with the 3 of us for that one.

OH .. Here are some 6 month pictures that I did when we were home.

Here is one of Alex and I:

You both have GREAT smiles! Post the pics after you have them taken okay??
