Anyone use Shutterfly for Christmas cards?

How long did it take to get your order (including processing and shipping time)?  I'm getting super frustrated with our photographer...first she pushed back the date of our photo shoot, and now she's taking forever to get our pictures to us even though she knows we're using them for Christmas cards.  She said hopefully this week, but maybe next week.  Just curious if that's enough time to still order from Shutterfly, or if we'll be out of luck.

i use them every year, and LOVE them. last year something for one reason or another got screwed up and they gave me like a $35 credit on my account. i can't remember how long they took, maybe from the time i place my order, like a week and i have them in the mail? but i really have been happy every year and am planning on using them again! look online for coupon codes too! Hope that helps! Good luck and happy holidays!

I use them every year and they are super quick. We haven't even done our Christmas card photos yet (we will this weekend!) and I'm not at all worried about the timeline. You should be fine.

I've used Shutterfly for a few years now (this year's card is in siggy), and usually get them in about a week, sometimes less. I think you have plenty of time.

I did them last year for pickup the same day at my local Target store and they were awesome! Great quality. Not thin and flimsy and crappy like i've had from other places.

I ordered them last Monday and got them this Monday but we had Thanksgiving thrown in the middle of that.

Went with shutterfly for the first time this year...used to go with Walgreens.  Got the pics in less than a week and they are fantastic.  We got the matte finish and I like it a lot better than the glossy.  They were inexpensive too.

u could pick snapfish and pick up at wallgreens, or duane reade,

I think u could pick up shutterfly from target

I've had consistently good experiences with Shutterfly for several years.

However, if time becomes an issue and you don't want a glossy finish, you might want to check out Mpix. (Pretty sure the labs at Target and the like can only do glossy finish.) Their next day shipping is pretty cheap, as far as overnight shipping goes, their quality is tough to beat for the price.

I always use Shutterfly and they are super fast for everything.  I ordered pictures on Monday and I got them on Friday - they are already in the envelopes addressed and ready to be sent out.  I used a coupon and they currently have free shipping if you spend $25 or more.
