the Cost of Graduation Invitations

We paid 75.00 for 150 graduation invitations. The price included white folded card stock cards with one color ink, printed on the out side of the card (year and name) and the inside of the card (details about the event), and envelopes.

The service was fine, not exceptional. We went to a big box office supply chain. I called to find out about pricing, and called again later to check on the order. Every time I called I talked to someone it was someone different so it was not very personal service. We went in to choose the design and paper and ink color. We placed and paid for the order. We were told it would take a week to get the finished product. It took just a week and we were pleased with the job, they quality was good.

I think next time I would go to a smaller printer and maybe pay a little more to speak to the same person each time I call. I would read the proof very carefully, our first proof had a small mistake that we caught. Order early, we waited a week to pick up because everyone was ordering graduation cards at that time. We went for the very inexpensive paper and envelopes to keep our cost down, you can spend a lot more if you want to use thing like foil lined envelopes, recycled paper or multiple colored ink.
