Costco Photo had decent quality photo books at good prices, good for team trips, family events etc. Shutterfly is much more expensive. Now I need to find a new source.

Also, Shutterfly is always 40-50% off.

This is a HUGE Downgrade from what was available at costco.

1) Shutterfly has inflated prices so 50% does not even come close
2) People used to pick up photos at costco or have them shipped for FREE.
With shutterfly, FREE only if above $49. . This is a KILLER,
This is same deal that shutterfly offers everywhere, like supermatket reciepts.

Costco, All you've done is discontinued a good service (your choice) and given shutterfly access to thousands of customers. At least, you could have negotiated Free shipping for costco customers. That would be worth more than 50% off, or even 'free' prints (with high shipping charges) that shutterfly offers in many promotions.

Costco. Thanks but no thanks. I will not use your 'referral' to shutterfly.

I'm glad they gave us plenty of time to download whats on there...
I just looked at shutterfly and they are bat crazy expensive! It took awhile to find their lowest cost christmas cards comparable to costco photo and it was twice expensive as to what we normally spend. And that's with shutterfly's current sale!

IDK about you, but I'm starting to think costco's third party services are starting to go down hill...

Well that's a bummer. I could buy 25 basic holiday cards from Costco for about $25 including shipping and handling to me. The cheapest card from Shutterfly would be about $33 for 25, or about $1.30 each shipped to me. I briefly looked at Snapfish but I think it was pretty comparable to Shutterfly.

Costco had such a great affordable service, this sucks. 51% off is the normal Shutterfly discount, shipping kills their "deals". The referrals should be massively profitable for Costco.

I didn't even know Costco did photo books. Any other ideas post them if you find something good.

Costco vs Shutterfly's currently discounted prices. Also need to add shipping if under $49.

4x6 11¢ 16¢
5x7 59¢ 89¢
8x10 $1.79 3.56
11x14 $3.99 8.99
12x12 $3.99 6.29
16x20 $6.99 16.19
20x30 $9.99 20.69

If you're needing any prints now is the time to order!

That was my thought initially, then I remember, my Costco has stopped doing Passport photos awhile ago.

Shame.. Costco keeps getting worse.. their Costco Citi VISA, just a few years ago, was attractive. Now the other banks have caught up and surpassed in benefits. Costco Citi removed the extended warranty.

Does anyone know if this affects the CostoDVD Film transfer services (like from film to dvd or usb)? It seems like it does. I guess I better get my order in before it's too late.

I have used MakePassportPhoto.com website to make a 4x6 print photo with 6 passport photos and have it print/shipped by Costco for $0.11 per 4x6 photo. Now with this change, I will have to probably get it printed from local CVS/Walgreens/etc. Also, go there to pick it up. Bummer.

Since when terrible deals are considered good deals and get thumb-up?

Terrible deal. 50% or more off shutterfly items are ALWAYS available (and still higher than costco photo prices) and costco photo used to have free shipping on just about ALL orders, not just $49+
