Vista Print is offering a free wall calendar right now. I made one of these last year and I thought it turned out really well. I usually give them to each of the grandparents and this year I think I will make one for myself. I like seeing pictures of the girls from the prior year and how much they have changed.
You have to pay shipping charges, which were $5.70 for me.
Just head over to Vista Print and select the wall calendars.

I did this about a couple weeks ago and received mine in the mail this week. It was just okay. I shouldn’t complain too much since it was only $5 but when you compare it to the one I made last year from Kodak Gallery, it leaves a lot to be desired, mostly the thinness of the paper. With that said, it’s probably worth the $5 but if someone wants a higher quality wall calendar, there are better options IMO.
p.s. Sooo happy to see the followup comment option on your blog now. Yay! And thanks!

Goose- I agree that it isn’t super fancy but this one for $5 is great for the kitchen and great for grandpa. I will probably make a different one for my step-mom since she hangs it in her office. There is a Snapfish deal I will be posting tomorrow but they do cost a little more.

Just so you know, it’s actually cheaper if you “stack” about 5 of the freebie offiers together. For example, if you order a free calendar, a free shirt, a free tote bag, 10 free Thank You cards, and the free address labels…. shipping should only run you $8-something…. making the calendar only 2 bucks instead of 5. 😀
Charlene says
Yup I know Gina but thank you. Not everyone wants those items- so those that do can certainly take advantage.

I heard apple has options for making a calendar, my sister makes it every year, but she’s thinking about not doing it since its alot of work to slew through alot of pictures. I love getting it, since they live far away and we don’t see them very often(out of the country)

Went all the way through, signed in, and then it told me the stupid thing was $7.99—when it had said “free” the whole way through. Ugh.
Charlene says
Kristen- it is free. I made one last night. As I said in the post you have to pay shipping which for me was $5 and change. Vista tends to offer a lot of extras so if you accidentally added anything to your cart as you were going to checkout that would be where the $7.99 was from. If your project is still saved you might just remove it from your cart and then add it back and go to checkout again. They offer upgrades to premium paper, color on the date areas etc.. etc.. so you might have selected one of those by mistake. Also, just confirming you did pick the wall calendar and not the desk one?
