Passport Pictures

Anyone who has needed passport pictures recently will know how expensive they are inspite of the price, really poor quality! Judging by my own recent experience at Walgreens and what I have since read online, forget about going to the local drug stores where few of the employees know how to take a good quality passport picture.

If you are a Basic member of AAA, pictures are two for $6.00 and free if you have a Plus membership. A good price AND good quality!

There is also a free online service where you can do-it-yourself! So if you have a digital camera and someone handy to take your picture, click, upload and print. You can then print 6 passport pictures ( 2 X 2) as one 4 X 6 photo. Just cut your 6 pictures and viola! Don't have good printer? Upload your picture to the site and they will validate and mail to you at a cost of $5.99 for 6, or print at your local drugstore or Walmart for pennies. Go to:

Happy saving!
Thrifty
