    I'm planning on using VistaPrint for my STD postcards and the other day I made an account and was playing around with it (I don't have them designed yet) just to see how the interface worked and to be sure that's the site I wanted to use.  Well today I got an email titled "Oops! Did You Forget?" from them and it had a 15% off coupon attached.

    I know some other websites do this as well (if you have an account and leave stuff in your "basket" they'll email you a coupon to try and get you to actually purchase the stuff) but I'd figure I'd let you all know if you go make a pretend version of whatever you want printed, or even make what you want printed, and then don't buy it right away there's a good chance they'll email you a 15% off coupon!  I love coupons!

    If anyone has had a bad experience with vistaprint.com please let me know, or if you know of any good money savers out there give us all a heads up!

    I used vista print for my STD, didn't luck out with a coupon, but the service was good.  I received the cards shortly after ordering them and the printing was well done.

    I used VistaPrint for my save the dates (postcards as well) and they were great. I have had trouble with receiving my mail sometimes, and when I didn't receive my STD's, I simply e-mailed them and they sent a new shippment right away without questions (as it probably wasn't even their fault) and with free shipping. And it only took 3 days to arrive. Great customer service.

    Sign up to get the emails-- seriously! Screw 15% off you'll get 100% off. Every two weeks or so you get an email with all the free deals and there is almost always a free 100 postcards deal in there. I used that to do my Save the Dates. I designed them myself in word, converted them to jpeg, and uploaded the designs (just make sure you look on the postcards to see what size they need to be because they're a little wonky). I did color fronts and black and white backs, and got everything for free. Shipping was $11 (I did the second slowest shipping and they got here in a week). 100 save the dates for $11 total = WIN. :)

    I've ordered quite a few things (wedding related and not) from them and I've loved the results! They have great deals and I think for the amount of customization you are able to do it is a great value! It's worth it!

    I've ordered a ton of free things from them recently for the wedding and everything has turned out great. They are great quality and even with the slowest shipping option, things come quick. I got most of my things within a week. Just sign up for the mailing list and you will get free offers all the time.

    I don't know if you guys are set up with upromise or not but they also have great vistaprint deal you can use too.  I just got my STD magnets and they look great.

    Very true. You save lots of money if you just order a little bit and then order the bulk of your purchase later. I ordered 10 as samples, and when those came in, they included a 25% of coupon. On top of that, I've been getting emails to let me know when they're haveing a 50% off sale. The magnets I ordered are perfect quality, too! :)

    I used vistaprint for our save the date postcards and the quality was great.  The text turned out a little smaller than I was expecting, so my only recommendation is to make sure you print out a proof at home that's the correct size.  Don't trust how it looks on your computer screen!  The postcards turned out fine, but I was a little concerned about our older guests being able to read them. :)

    The only thing I would say is that sometimes when you get the "free" stuff (like business cards, etc) they will print their logo and website on the back of that product. So just watch out for that and read the fine print. Other than that, I think it's fine!
