I set out this morning to get my diploma framed. I went to Kinkos and made a copy of it first so that I'd have a copy on file if I ever needed it. The color copy that I made only cost $1.89! Plus, it's a perfect copy of it. It's really nice. I am genuinely impressed with the quality of the copy.
Then, after Kinkos, I went to Michael's to see about custom framing. I was all excited because I had a 50% off coupon and thought it was going to be a great deal. However, it's not. Not in the slightest bit. Actually, it's quite a rip-off. They act all nice and friendly and show you every option, but really, they're just salesmen for overpriced, mediocre products. All I wanted was a basic frame with a single matte and they wanted to charge me $230!!!! And that's AFTER the 50% off coupon! I was stunned. Genuinely shocked at how they could charge that to frame a piece of paper. wow. So, I talked to the lady a little longer and they said they couldn't do it for less than $130. I left her counter and walked down the isle, found a frame i liked for $35.00 (I think it's prettier than the one she was trying to sell me) and went up to checkout. Lucky me, planning ahead, I printed off a 40% off any one item coupon that morning, so, I got my diploma frame for 40% off of $35! Yeah, baller status. Take that crazy lady charging crack prices for framing. NO THANK YOU!
your frame is pretty hawt if yanno what i mean ;)
