how much is shipping?

Anonymous said...

that bad thing about this one is that it will take about an hour to do and you wont know if you are one of the first 250000 to qualify till the end.

link won't work

It says free shopping

Anonymous said...

WOrking on my book. The site is really slow with uploading pictures. I hope I am one of the 25000. My advice..start a book and work on other things while photos are uploading.

Chandler Fam said...

really hard site to work with

Anonymous said...

The site is moving soooo slow. It is too bad you have to wait to make the purchase to see if you qualify. May spend time making a phot book that you do not end up getting. $39.99 is pretty expensive considering all of the deals lately for the holidays.

Anonymous said...

Yeah, I got half way in and gave up. Too much work to chance it. I would not be happy if I wasn't one of the 25,000. Oh well, hopefully another good photo deal will come along.

Kelly said...

Finished and they want my credit card info...should I supply it even though it says free??

Anonymous said...

I did it - it took a while but it's worth it!!!!!

Kelly said...

K finished it and it's on its way! I asked about the credit card, and they said they just need it to submit the form. No charges will be made though.

Kari Burnside said...

It did ask for a credit card but no charges applied! What a great deal!

Anonymous said...

do you have to give card info? I am one of the very small percentage that does not own a card.

Jannel said...

Both of my laptops don't have the required java running. Oh well! They look like really nice books though!

Michelle said...

Thank you so much Collin!!! I just finished my photo book filled with pictures of my kids. I love it!! What a great deal the photo book was $39.95 and shipping was $8.99 all free..... Yippeeee!!!

nancy said...

I just did it and it took the coupon code so I guess I am one of the first 25,000 people to do it!!! yahoo!!!

Trying to upload my photos and after a few minutes it stops and says that the connection was disconnected by a peer. Anyone know what that means or having the same problem?

Anonymous said...

Just got done doing mine. It took awhile the last 2 pages don't have as many pictures as I wanted, but it keep kicking me out, so I decide to just order to make sure I was one of the first 25,00. My total was $54.95, but with coupon free. Thanks. This will make a great Christmas present.

The site actually moved along nicely! I figured it would be hit really hard, but not too bad. I had been dieing to make an album from our last family reunion- worked out great! Thank you!!

Yipee! It did work. Took a bit of time, but well worth it. I really had trouble with it quitting midway through so I certainly didn't make a fancy one. At least for me, even though it would need to be refreshed, my book I was working on was still there. Pictures didn't take a super long time to load either. THANKS!!!

Anonymous said...

The order went through for free photobook and free shipping. Took me a while to get everything together but the order went through. Thanks alot.

Kristine in WA said...

Thanks so much for sharing this! I cant believe what a great Daddy gift this will make for my husband. One more thing off my Christmas list...and for FREE!

Anonymous said...

Thanks got mine, so happy! This will make a great gift for my husband!

Amber said...

I got it too! It took quite a while. For some reason, it kept missing pictures that I loaded - some took several loading attempts to finally get them on. I'm not sure what the deal is, but it took a long time. But, it was worth it. I didn't see an option to change the layouts, but according to an annonymous reader you can. If I could do it again, I would change it so that it's just 1 photo per page, load them in and be done. It was kind of tricky getting my picutres to fit into the layouts they had.

Thanks for this great deal!

Thanks! Got mine for my hubby!

I don't know what is going on. I think there site is having a hard time keeping up. I took the time to upload my photos, but once I create the book, a screen pops up that says they are experiencing technical difficulties. Bummer! I was really excited to make this :(

Michelle said...

I think the site is crashing.. I have been trying to load my photobook to add pictures and keep getting the message "We are experiencing technical difficulties while attempting to load your project.

the technical difficulties started happening just as I finished adding all the photos into my book. Everything wasn't PERFECTLY the way I wanted it, but I went ahead and ordered anyways!!! THANK YOU!!

I just uploaded the pictures and went to get started on the book. Haven't even selected pictures yet.
I'll continue to try. My Mom would love this for Xmas.

having the same technical difficulties on the $40 book. Just for kicks went to see if they would accept the code for a $17 book and the code won't work for any other photobook.

I have yet to score a free photobook for one reason or another! Really hoping I get in on this deal before it's all gone. At least I have my pictures uploaded.

I just got done uploading my pictures too and it says it is experiencing technical difficulties so I don't know if I'll be able to get this photo book. These photo book places just don't seem to be working for me lately.

Thanks - I got 3 ordered before it crashed! These will make great presents for the family

Amber said...

I received the same error message an number of times - I just hit refresh until it loaded the page where I could work on my layout. So, if you get that error message, don't give up - just try refreshing and hopefully you'll be able to get it back up.

Krissy said...

I never even get an error message or a message saying they are experiencing technical difficulties. After more than an hour I finally got all my photos uploaded, now when I go to layout the album it keeps telling me it is Loading......but nothing ever happens!

So frustrating! My 10 year old niece wants a scrapbook of our family vacation for her birthday and this would be perfect, if I can just get it to work.

How much time is too much time to spend on this? I can't afford to buy her much for her birthday, so this album would be perfect. Guess I'll go try again!

I just ordered mine. Not perfect, but close. What a frustrating site to work with, but maybe it's because so many people are on it at once. I'm excited about my free book:)

Thank you sooooo much- I just got one! I was going to order a photobook (today too!) on either kodak or seehere and finished uploading the pics when I saw your post. You just saved me so much money! It took me 3 1/2 hours, but it was so worth it! Thank you again!

I just got a free book ordered at 1:40pm PST--not sure it was worth the time--but thanks to Collin for letting us know about the deals! My hubby will like this photo book--even though at the end I wasn't game to fix three captions that just listed the lame photo title! Be prepared to hit the refresh button several hundred times though! ;-)

I just got my free book. What a pain in the neck. I wouldn't go back to this company, but I just can't pass up a free book. finished it about 4:00 EST

Thank you SO MUCH for posting this deal! I worked on a photo book for a couple of hours yesterday on Shutterfly & luckily didn't submit it. I was going to finish it this afternoon when I saw this deal. You saved me about 30 bucks! This site was indeed very frustrating, but you just have to keep at it. It took me a good 2 hours to finish it. That included getting kicked off a couple of times. I've got a great Christmas gift now though!! The deal still worked a little after 4 p.m. EST.

Thanks for posting this deal! I just got one and it took about an hour start to finish! No problems at all, it was really easy! So excited!!!

Got mine!! Took a while, but so worth it b/c it's FREE!! I thought the site was pretty user friendly had it not been super slow. I skipped the editing b/c I kept getting errors...besides, it's for my kids and they only love the pics!! Thanks for posting. :)

YAY Got mine!! Thank you so much! I wish I would have uploaded more pictures. You can fit up to 80 pics in this book FYI!!! I kept getting kicked off, but if you close your browser all the way down, then keep trying, it will come up!! I swear, it IS worth it!!!!!

I just got mine done at 4:58 MT. It took a while, but not too bad once the site was back up. I wish you could have the words align in the middle instead of always aligning on the right, but I can't complain because it's free!

Note for future use: this code is put in on the last screen right before placing order. It is a coupon code not a gift certificate. I tried to put it in the gift certificate and it didn't like it but go a page or two after that and it is on the right. Thanks H2S!

just a tip---go ahead and add the book to your cart with the free code then go back and finish the book so your not rushed!

site is working again.

The Wagner Fam said...

I was able to get it done, but it took most of the day, with some breaks. I just kept refreshing or using the back button. My husband's b-day is in 3 weeks and I've been wracking my brain of what to get him. He will enjoy his new album of our family. :) I am so relieved this went through. I just sent it, 7:05 Central time. Another tip, if you know you want it the way it is instead of previewing it (it takes a looooong time to load that page), once it is trying to load the preview page, on the upper right-hand of the page click the box that says something about ordering it the way it is and going right to shopping cart. it saved me a lot of time.

Glad to get the freebie and all that but, seriously giving birth was easier. One similarity to childbirth though. Once I did it once I decided I never needed to go through that again. Same thing here. Photoworks should help the lagging economy by hiring some better IT people.

I just finished this. It is a bit slow, but I only did 10 pages. The BONNIE code took care of a book and shipping so it's all free. You do need to enter a credit card, but it's not charged according to my email receipt. Fun idea. I say stick it out, maybe only do a small book, you don't have to do all 20 pages and you can change the page layout to accomodate however many photos you want.

They will LOVE IT! :) Thank you!! (10:35pm Pacific, btw)

Hooray, I just got mine! I didn't do the best job of photo editing that I could have done, but I just wanted to get it finished in time. I didn't have any problems with it going through... it is 1:15 a.m. CST on Tues 11/24. I also clicked on Paypal so as not to have to enter any credit card info. What a great deal!

They are still giving out free books, I just got mine ordered, it's 1 am on the west coast on 11/24. The site is VERY VERY slow...it took forever and I have made these books on shutterfly before so I'm not totally inexperienced and it still took almost 2 hours. But it was totally free so I'm happy :)

Couldn't sleep...came downstairs and decided this would be a great time to try to make one of these. Boy was I right...at 2am PST my photos loaded quickly. It takes about an hours to complete the entire book because you choose your layouts, pictures, text, captions, etc. Make sure you download alot of pictures. You can choose from 1-14 pictures per page! Can't believe this was totally free and that it's 8x11!

Thank you collin! it took me FOREVER and i had problems with it accepting the code saying "exceeding daily limit" or something like that , but it finally worked! I am so glad that all that effort paid off! THANK YOU!

Looks like this deal is still good! I had to pay $4.95 for some reason, looks like they raised the price of my book. I tried off and on all day yesterday so I was tired of messing with it. Still not bad, because it looks like a nice book!

Looks like its over.. The site will not load at all this morning!

I just finished a book...super easy, takes about 1-2 hours if you are picky like me. With no captions and using auto-fill, you could easily do this in under an hour.

CODE STILL WORKS!! I PAID NOTHING! Used Paypal, worked GREAT!!

Spent 2 hours uploading pictures yesterday and another half hour fighting with layouts this morning. I'm sad because this is such a great deal, but I think I'm done with this one. :-(

Callie said...

Code still works! Wow! What an amazing deal. Did a book for my hubby for Christmas (we aren't doing big presents for each other this year) but since it was free it will be a great little surprise :)

I finished my book last night!! I spent several hours yesterday getting my pictures to load and then putting the book together took more time. It was worth it though!! I am really excited to see the finished product. I did have a pay about $7 or $8 because I had added a few more pages. The coupon said that you could add more pages at your expense. So they still covered the base price of $39.95 and then I had to pay the difference. Still a great deal in my opinion!! Thanks for the info about this!!

Tara S said...

site is slow again. i just wish it would work for five minutes so i can order the book. it wont show half of my pictures in the preview page. the help chat said not to order it if you didnt see it in the preview page cause thats what gets sent to the printer :(

Tara said...

I think I've spent like 4 hours between yesterday and today on this book but I got mine totally free! Thanks for posting this deal! I hope it turns out like it looks.

I made my book last night at 12:30am PST. The pictures loaded really quick and then it took me about 45 minutes to design all the page layouts. I love how you can choose between 1-14 photos per page. My sister is going to love this!

Yea! I scored a 2nd free book!

KariY said...

My heart was racing as I placed my order just now, but it worked. This is so exciting!
The site was pretty speedy for the last half hour or so.

Amanda Sheren said...

I crossed my fingers and made one and it went through! it took the coupon code and I selected paypal and it didn't charge me anything! thank you so very much for sharing this link with us! :)

Braden said...

Just got my free book, and it worked out great. Lots of page options, and was pretty quick to put together after the pictures are all uploaded. Had it sent to my mom, so hopefully it all turns out okay. Great gift, and you gotta love free! Thanks for the freebie info.

Kaitlin said...

it still worked for me at 3:23 eastern time :)

Wow! Did what someone suggested and added to the cart with the code yesterday. Finished it leisurely today, and just now ordered for FREE!! AWESOME!

Anonymous said...

IT took forever, but I got it done and it looks AWESOME!!! You can do a live chat with tech support and ask them if they have any left. When I asked a few minutes ago, he said they have plenty left, but could not give me an exact number. Whoo hoo!!! To confirm for everyone, shipping was free, I paid nothing!

Woohoo it is still working! Just ordered mine and it was free! The pictures uploaded quickly also so the site must not be as bogged down now.

I find it extrememly hard to believe that those are still available, especially since I'm sure many people order a few copies with sifferent email addresses. I won't complain though because mine went through no problems :-) THANK YOU!!!!!!

Ordered it but had to pay $1.98. Not sure why but stii good deal. Wish it was free. It had/has me ticked off though. :(

Anonymous said...

Did anybody else have to pay any money? I don't know why I did because it seems no one else had too.

Worked for me. 7:30pm PST

It took me four to five hours to make my book, due to all of the problems with the site. I contacted customer service, who said the site was overloaded and the engineers were working on it. I had to log out and log in several times before I was finally able to submit the order. For anyone who's worried about doing all that work and not getting the free book, I'd say to go ahead and do it. Everyone is experiencing a problem with the site, so I doubt that 25,000 people have been able to finish their books.

You may have had to pay money because of tax or if you added more pages to the book(the coupon accounts for a free 20 page book and states that the customer can add more pages at the customers expense). I added some extra pages and I just had to pay the difference for the extra pages that I added. Shipping was free. :)

I just finished my book at 8pm PST. I can't believe that they still have books available! I thought for sure this would be long gone :) I am so excited to get it in the mail. Loving all these photo freebies!

I just ordered my book. I didn't realize the website being extremely slow... I am so excited. We ordered it for my m.i.l. and she is going to die from excitement. My husband and I are going through college and this was the perfect present and even for a more perfect price!! Thank you! We ended up paying 6.00,, but we thought it was worth it. I think it happened because I had the winter theme--so beware. :)
