Cornucopia

Thanksgiving Day Feast





With Thanksgiving Day less than 3 weeks away, you'll want to buy your camera film now, before the prices start to climb.  Retailers know you're going to take lots of photos of family and friends over the holidays so the prices start to climb about 2 weeks prior to the holidays, and continue to remain high until after Christmas. A recent trip to Walmart in my area yielded a 4 pack of Fujifilm ,24 exposures per roll, ISO (film speed) 800 priced at $9.59.  Needless to say I bought the film.  My only mistake was purchasing only one 4 pack.  I like the higher film speeds because it makes room lighting less of an issue.  There is still time to shop online for film from some of the businesses that specifically cater to us "shutterbugs".  But if convenience is a big factor in your buying decision, Walmart, at least for now, seems to have a good price.  If you know of any better sources, feel free to post, and share with the rest of us where you found your bargain price.
