While I love the Costco brand and name, I’m not excited about their photo scanning service. Going directly through yesvideo would charge you $25.99 for the first 50 images and $0.39 for every image after that. Still very expensive, but you do get a discount going through Costco versus if you were to go directly through. Scanning in bulk with Costco’s third party service charges $19.99 for the first 62 images and $0.32 per image after that. Through that third party service we would be charged a discount rate which is what they have published when you go to the Costco Photo Center website called. When I asked why it was so expensive to scan with Costco, they said if we had a lot of pictures to scan they could send it to an outside service that they have contracted with, a service called. But when I checked out the photo scanning options at our local Costco I was surprised to see how expensive they were.Īt the Costco Photo Center near us, scanning pictures onto a DVD cost $0.99 per scan! Holy cow, more expensive than market prices and much more expensive than us at. Being able to get the cheapest gas in town and then flash my membership card to the bouncer at the front door always makes me feel a little more special.

Oftentimes having a Costco membership entitles one to feel they are getting the best deal around. But when it comes to getting your photo scanned into a digital format make sure you understand what you are getting into. I’ve used Costco vacation packages for a family trip to Costa Rica. Where else in the world can you go and fill up your tank on the most inexpensive gas in town, buy toilet paper in bulk, get filet mignon steaks, have your glasses prescription filled, buy a 70-inch 4K television all while enjoying free samples? And if you are still hungry after all that shopping, get a yummy hotdog with a soda from the food court.įor those who have a membership, Costco is great for a wide variety of products and services. But recently, a potential customer told me about their photo scanning service, which took my mind off of Polish hotdogs.Ĭostco is awesome. When you think of Costco, what do you think of? For me, I think of those delicious Polish dogs with a thirst quenching soda.
