Cheapest way to get passport photos?

Asked by JonnyCeltics (2721points) January 24th, 2009

Walgreens, CVS….all around 8 bucks for 2 freakin’ photos. I don’t want to do it myself…Just seems annoying and that the authorities would have a problem with them….2×2 I believe….help!

Take them yourself and use an online cropper, and then send them off to Kodak or something to print them off wallet size :)
I really don’t think you have another alternative unless you spend all day driving around looking for a cheap booth.
By which time the fuel will have made up for the difference in cost lol

hmm its been awhile but I think the post office did my photo for free… btw johnny, you wouldn’t happen to be heading to china would you?

Do not print off wallet-size prints. They will not accept them. I’m not sure where online one can find reliable passport photo regulations, but I do know that the accepted size is 2×2” and only the top of the shoulders and head are shown.

The retail stores that offer passport photos will do it for you in usually under 10 minutes for about $8. Seems expensive, but the post office will charge you around $15.

Is there a FedEx-Kinko’s near you? They might be a dollar or two cheaper.

@LKidKyle1985 – I am planning on hopefully being there within the next year – so I am prepping for travel! Why do you ask?
