Wilkinson's are trying to take our business

Just went to wilkos today to find a mirrored photo frame to try some glass etching and spotted 2 items that I hadn't noticed before. They now have acylic photo blocks that you a lot your own photo into which is fine as the sublimation blanks have all bit vanished for these but they're also selling iphone cases that you put your own photo in. Now I know they're not going to be as good as subbed ones but people are likely to get these for the versatility and quick fix or am I wrong?

Sounds good but who actually prints off photos nowadays? I know I have an external hard drive full of photos but have only printed a couple to put into xmas cards for grandparents/ aunts who we do not see and don't do the internet.

You can get mugs, magnets, coasters and all sorts you can put your own photo in if you want. The main thing is and I am sure it will be the same for the phone case...... they all look naff when done by diy.

I used to supply a local shop with subli stuff but they now prefer the 'insert photo' items in favor I'm afraid. I guess it's quicker for them and folk can take stuff away there and then but it really is tacky.

Who prints there photos nowadays? I have a hard drive full of photos of the kids but only print 1 or at xmas to put into cards for elderly relations who don't do internet.
