Flash Print has often surprised and delighted me-- going above and beyond my expectations and even…read moremy hopes. A few months ago, for example, I brought in a foam core poster board to ask IF they could cut some small amount off each side...the only shop that had told me they could definitely do the job was quite some distance away. The Flash Print tech on duty kindly said she believed she could do the work, since the poster was not too thick/dense-- and she did! Which saved me *hours* of traveling that day. Another time, I brought in a page or two to be copied-- and was not charged, even though another kindly staff person did all the work-- not me. And once, FlashPrint was the only copy center open when I needed some copies made. ...Also, each time I've gone in (even when Halloween was not in sight), there's been a bowl of bite-sized treats for customers to take one free: a sweet treat for completing some bothersome task, so I've felt happily *rewarded* for being productive, too, on leaving their shop...in fact, my tummy always leaps for joy, in anticipation, as I've headed down the stairs and seen the bowl of treats awaiting me. So Thanks again for EVERYTHING, Flash Print!

Although I initially wanted lamination, they couldn't do that day of as they had a large order just before me. BUT they printed my poster on thicker paper and with a beautiful gloss. The colors turned out amazing, and the quality -- I've never seen it in a poster before. Absolutely perfect. Even more, when I printed off my poster, I had some really deep blacks. We began rolling the poster up into a tube -- that they provided -- and noticed the ink hadn't quite dried, and it started to rub off. Edward printed off 2 more just to be sure, let it sit a bit, tried a lighter black and it came out still beautiful. They customer service is 10/10 and make sure you're satisfied with your product. I would 100% recommend and I will always use them in the future. It was a bit costly to do same day and such a big poster, but absolutely worth the quality, service, and convenience.

The person…read morewho helped me was kind, and cut my box down to size when I didn't use all of it, so I wouldn't be charged extra. The one thing I wish I had known before was that business accounts can't be used at stores, which are franchise locations. I had already packed my box before I realized. The person was nice about it, and checked if the account could be used a number of times. He pointed out that I had to go to a center if I wanted to use the account, and that the stores were franchises, and blocked the use of accounts. That was helpful to know for the future.

I run a small business and while I ship most of my orders through USPS, occasionally UPS offers…read morebetter rates for large packages, so I make drop offs here on a regular basis. I was really glad to learn that they sell packing peanuts, because sometimes I run out and need to grab supplies at the last minute. Well, the last time I asked for packing peanuts, the employee told me that they no longer sell them and this was a company wide policy change. Turns out that was a lie: He just didn't feel like going in the back and making up the bags for me. I couldn't find anything on the UPS website regarding this policy change, so I asked another staff member the next time I was at the store, and that person confirmed that I can absolutely still buy packing peanuts there. All I can say is that if UPS doesn't want to take my money for supplies, that is just fine. I go to U-Haul or Staples now if I need supplies in a hurry. I just drop my pre-paid packages off at this store as necessary and will not buy anything else or seek additional services. I'm still leaving 3 stars because everyone else I've encountered at this store was courteous and helpful.

All in all it may have only been 6 cuts made but it saved me at least 5 hours of time doing it on my personal trimmer at home.
