[CowboyCO]

Walgreens is offering 75% off their 5"x7" picture books. Discount code is summer2010 and is only good through June 30.

Thank you. Just finished mine.

It only takes off $7.50 total for mine, so my one book with 64 pages is still over $50, how did you get yours so cheap!!!

You have to go with the paper cover. If you use any custom cover, then you only get a 10% discount. I have to start over as well.

I did this last night, 2 hours working on it, to only get the $7.49 off too. I saw this post, redid it, and still only got $7.49 off. What am I doing wrong? Ive got a paper cover now and even have less pages with the book. Any help would be great I hate to have wasted all this time.

I did it with the paper cover and still only got $7.49 off the total rice.

I spent so much time doing it, I'm a little sad. It doesn't state that it is not 75% off total book, it looks like it is only taking the 75% off the $9.99 and nothing else.

Bummer

I'm glad I read this before I got started.......

Okay -- sorry everybody -- I had to do it 3 times before I got it figured out.

They will only give the 75% off on a standard 20-page photo book. Extra pages are at regular price ($2 each)

BUT they will allow you up to five books.

You have to order them one at a time.

So, I took our last trip and broke it into 5 books:

1. Animal Kingdom Lodge
2. Magic Kingdom
3. Epcot
4. Animal Kingdom
5. Hollywood Studios

Including shipping, I paid $4.62 each.

I wasted a few hours trying different things and I finally used their live chat and got the answer. The code is good through tomorrow!

I know...I worked on my book all day to find out the discount is only off the $9.99!! Grrrr..now to start over and seperate into different books...

 

[Soupermom]

So,one order for each book?

 

[CowboyCO]

Yes, one order for each book.

I made all five at once and then processed them as individual orders. Interestingly enough, the checkout system started kicking and additional 20% off on a couple of them as "rewards credits", so two of them I actually got for $4.12 each including shipping.

I can't wait to get them!

OK, got my book made, but I would like 3 copies for family. Any way I can get 3 of the same book and get the discount? Also, when I try to order just one, I get the 75% off, but then standard shipping is $6.99. Can anyone help me?!

Yes, you should be able to use it on re-orders, but you need to order them individually, using the reorder link that appears on your order confirmation page.

My options were USPS for $1.99, 2-day for 6.99 and overnight $10.99.

Try the livechat link to get help on the shipping. I found them to be very helpful.

Worked on these for 3 days. Went to order and only got the discount for one. Tried again and it kicked out my album and I had to redo album. After working on them for 3 nights all of the frustration and the code didn"t work. I was ordering 5 books. Very disappointing. Oh well, guess I'll just do a real scrapbook. : (

WOW, you got a much cheaper S&H option than I did! I only had the option of $6.99 per book!

As each book had to ordered individually to reap the 75% off of the basic price, S&H had to be paid for each. I had worked numerous hours, three different days, so not odering was out of the question , lol... I bit the bullet and paid it.

I did not complete my order until late on the last night so perhaps by then they had squashed the cheaper S&H option.

Two books ended up totalling $10.16 including everything and one was $14.63(extra pages, no discount).

It did let me have the custom covers with the 75% off! My delivery is expected to be on July 13th so my guess is that they were swamped with orders from this promo.

I cannot wait to see them... I hope the quality is great (I am a bit nervous about that)!

If anyone gets theirs early... please let us know how they look!

My husbands sister and parents recently included our son in their big combined family vacation so the books are part of thier "thank you" gifts we plan to give them. The books are filled with pictures that our DS took while on vacation with them and we made page one a personalized note to each family that went! I am sooooo hoping for awesome quality but will settle for clarity of the pictures, backgrounds, and text!

I liked the background choices they had, the personalized (picture) covers, font choices, and layout freedom. It was also quite simple to use. If quality is great I definately will use them in the future, making books is so much cheaper than developing all pictures from vacation. I do like "hard copies" of my favorites though and I like actually scrapbooking them so I will never replace that aspect by solely using photo books!

Thanks OP for posting the sale!
