we did it yesterday and they where $20 for the smallest package. when his nanny told me it was $30 (I wanted two 5x7 and they only had it in a package with wallets) I was not super happy.
The Santa I want to go to has packages from $25 - $60. Kind of ridiculous. They offer two images on a flash drive for $25 so I might just do that and get my own prints done. I get a discount because I know someone that works there so that will help a little.
we had to purchase one of their packages in order for us to take pictures with our camera! it was $19 for 2 5x7! not something we are gonna do every year!
And now I need to look for some place with better prices!
I don't know where you live, but if there is a Bass Pro Shop/Outdoor World near you, they do free pictures with santa. You get one print 4x6 and can take pictures with your own camera. We went last year and they had a huge Holiday set up with crafts and games for kids. DD is too young to enjoy it this year, but we are definitely going for our free picture with santa.
Re: how much do "pictures w/ Santa" cost at your mall?
