I'm noticing changes in the "photo departments" of some stores here in Las Vegas; and I'm not very happy with them.
The Smith's grocery store I visited last week no longer had film processing services, either in-store, or drop off.
The new setup consists of a number of sit-down, do-it-yourself, digital photo kiosks, arranged in a circle, not unlike slot machines, although I'm sure that's just coincidence.
That's it, that's the new "drugstore type photo processing", and the per print cost was $.29.
I'm guessing that the appeal here is comfort, you're sitting, and speed, no waiting, making the price a little steep.
But if you need digital prints quickly, especially just a few, then this is convenient and you can knock off the food shopping too.
But if you need a lot of prints, and don't need them immediately then there are loads of options that you can explore.
Most online processors offer a generous incentive in the form of free prints and free shipping just for signing up so check out this article and learn how to get quality digital prints at a low price.
Take a camera with you whenever possible, and look around, you'll find a picture somewhere.
