[IBL] Card Printing

[Jed]

Or you can be like me.  Buy 110 pound card stock at your favorite office supply store (~$15 for 250 sheets).  Then find someone who has a nice laser printer (or has access to one through work) and print them on your own.  Take the printed card stock copies to your favorite cutting shop (kinkos, Office Depot, etc) and just be charged for the cuts ($5 to $8).

The paper you buy will last 2 seasons or so too.

And to echo Chris, I toss my cards out after every season!  You think I want to look at Jason Bartlett's card again?

Works out pretty well, although I find that sometimes they get careless and cut them crooked, so now I ask to use their paper cutter to cut them myself.
