Groupon is offering personalised photo calendars and books for less than £10, with shoppers praising the gifts as 'beautifully finished' and 'very expensive looking'. The festive range allows users to compile treasured memories into a personalised album, making it suitable for someone who has had an exciting year.
Affordable Personalised Gifts
One standout option is the Personalised Hardback Photobook from Printerpix. Various page number designs are available, with prices starting from £8.58 (£1.59 for a 20-page A5 size with £6.99 delivery). Another option is the Design Your Own Photo Calendar A4, priced at £9.44 (£2.54 for the calendar using code PERSONAL and £6.90 delivery). For those wanting to buy multiple items, postage starts from £7.90.
The gifts are also a great option for those who have recently celebrated a wedding or welcomed a new baby, as well as keen travellers with plenty of memories to look back on. For those who have never shopped with Groupon before, the process is simple.
How the Process Works
Shoppers can buy the voucher on Groupon's site, then redeem it on the print shop's website, before uploading their photos and designing the gift. The items are available for UK mainland delivery only, though the delivery fee is not included, so this will need to be paid upon checkout.
It is advisable for shoppers to double check the expected delivery date of the order if it is a Christmas gift, to ensure the selected product can be made and sent in time to be opened on December 25th. Printerpix's delivery times are 10 to 12 business days, and the clock starts when the order is finished on the print shop's website, not when the voucher is purchased.
Shopper Reviews
The various options have received high praise on the retailer's website. One person said of Printerpix: "Been doing this for the family for the past 9 years since my grandson was born, makes wonderful memories and so easy to do."
Meanwhile a second raved: "Beautifully finished book, with great standard of paper paid extra for matt finish...really amazing." A third commented: "I've made a few photo books of our holidays and love looking at them with fond memories. The site is easy to use and has lots of choice. Would highly recommend!"
A fourth also fed back: "Easy enough process, and the book turned out amazing! Very expensive looking." Someone else praised the quality of their order, sharing: "These books were unbelievable, the quality was amazing and easy enough to do, fab I'll be buying more."
It is worth noting that while this reviewer did leave a five star review, they also mentioned they needed to spend a little time organising their gift, writing: "The photos were very well transferred to the calendars. The implementation of getting photos arranged on the order took some time to get used to the process of layout. But eventually ok. I am very pleased with the 5 calendars I ordered."
Despite this, another happy buyer said: "Lovely album. High quality photos, a lovely way to remember our special holiday and show it to older family members who don't use social media." Someone else also wrote: "I've been using these for years, such a great way to capture memories. Easy to use and really good quality."
Another appeared to agree, commenting: "Brilliant service, lovely photobook where we can delve into our memories together. Thank you." One reviewer liked their item as a Christmas gift, saying: "I bought as a present for Christmas, I have used Printerpix many times for photobooks over the years." A final person said: "Always the best site to use for photos."
