Pros


Photoshoot

Like all good ideas, this is simple. The homepage presents you with the offers, you click through to redeem them and then register with the respective site (be they Truprint, Tesco or even Aldi - who knew?). So that’s all your photo albums filled for a while. It seems to be updated pretty regularly, which is good to know.

This site also supplies you with offers for getting cards, gifts, books and posters printed from your digital snappy snaps. A neat little bonus. It all seems to just work. Just what the web was built for: saving you money.

Cons


Snapped

It is in need of a bit of design loving. Currently it looks very templated and quite beige. The banner looks like a stock blog one and the typeface is cheesey as hell.

When we were emailed this site, I had no idea this was such an industry but a Google search throws up a couple of competitors who are a bit ahead in the visuals race. However the competitors don’t give you the bonus of offers on cards, books, gifts and posters. So in terms of functionality this one wins. Which probably matters more.

Also a word of caution: only have a blog if you’re going to update it. This site has another example of an unloved blog. Sad face :(.
