Cruzin_Susan Posted October 18, 2011 #4 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Thats was a cool gift. I will use it with my pics from the sky in Nov. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcreek Posted October 18, 2011 Author #5 Share Posted October 18, 2011 I'm definitely using mine...I've made one of these books from our trip a few years ago to Vegas / Hoover Dam / Grand Canyon. It came out really nice! Yep - FANtastic idea, NCL... :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laurmac Posted October 18, 2011 #6 Share Posted October 18, 2011 I couldnt see an expiration date on the email, so I set up a shutterfly account and it expires Nov 15. That being said, if you sign up later, perhaps the expiry date is later. I was impressed at how reasonable the shipping price was to Canada - cheaper than within the US - usually shipping costs to Canada are so high that it's cost prohibative. (Shipping for the book only is 7.99 to the US, 6.99 to Canada!) Also when you sign up you get 50 free prints - which cost an extra 2.99 to ship. Now I have to get my pics organized to take advantage of this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sdmike Posted October 18, 2011 #11 Share Posted October 18, 2011 We commemorate big events with books like this frequently, and they make great gifts as well. We got the email and are excited to make a book from our Epic trip last year. Thanks NCL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
halos Posted October 18, 2011 #12 Share Posted October 18, 2011 I got that too!! To any of you who have never used Shutterfly for a photo album, you are in for a sweet surprise...they come out REALLY nice. I have 4 or 5 of them made that I keep out on the coffee/end tables all the time. Can't wait to make up another one!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STARFISH*4 Posted October 18, 2011 #13 Share Posted October 18, 2011 i got one too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KansasCityGuys Posted October 18, 2011 #14 Share Posted October 18, 2011 I got one too. I have never used Shutterfly before But I have used Panraven before. I loved my outcome with the Panraven book. Has anyone used both and can compare the two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bars7816 Posted October 18, 2011 #15 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Ok, I didn't get one. So I can be obnoxious and tell you all that Mixbook is way easier to use. :D You can do more things with the photos, choose page backgrounds the exact color you want with the "eye dropper" feature, and add all kinds of embellishments. But if this is free -- free is good! The Shutterfly covers are especially well done. Very smooth, but I think that the photo pages in Mixbook actually look better. I have a stack of books -- Shutterfly and Mixbook -- to prove I spend way too much time on the computer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mom2B&Z Posted October 18, 2011 #16 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Hmm, and to think I almost deleted that email! Guess I'm going back to check it out more closely, and thank you to the poster who mentioned shipping to Canada is very reasonable :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pcreek Posted October 18, 2011 Author #18 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Well, now that I see it expires 11/15/11 - guess I'll have to use it for something other than our cruise coming up...lol I'm sure I can find 'something' to fill that book up with! :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obi1 Posted October 18, 2011 #19 Share Posted October 18, 2011 I thought I wasn't going to get one...I kept reading how everyone received the email and I kept checking mine and it wasn't there...but, WHEW, I did get the email this afternoon. :) I have never used Shutterfly, but this definitely looks interesting! Can't wait to use it to showcase our November 6 Pearl cruise to the Caribbean! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MNallan Posted October 18, 2011 #20 Share Posted October 18, 2011 I wish it expired after my Dec 11th Cruise... but I am sure I can find something to use it for. That is awesome!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retiring soon Posted October 18, 2011 #22 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Hi all! I didn't get one but hope I do after my Epic cruise in Nov. I just did my 1st |Shutterfly book & was really pleased with all the choices of backgrounds, scripts, picture placement & embellishments, much better than the Kodak ones I have.:D ~ Jo ~ :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youngestof9 Posted October 18, 2011 #24 Share Posted October 18, 2011 I'm having so much fun putting together my book for my trip on the Gem 2 weeks ago. Going to give it to my husband for Christmas! Thanks NCL!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mitsugirly Posted October 19, 2011 #25 Share Posted October 19, 2011 I got one too, but didn't pay too much attention to it until I started reading everyone talking about it. So you upload your cruise pictures to it and what??? design the pages and what you want on them or something? Is it like an online scrap book? I bought the actual NCL Spirit scrapbook kit ($30 or so) on my last cruise and it is awesome. It was personalized just for the Spirit and with all the stuff and pictures that came with it, I thought it was an amazing price. So, I guess since I didn't purchase the one from the Epic last year, I'll use this coupon on it to make one. Awesome! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
