Which consumer happenings cheered you recently and which ones made you want to scream or weep?



Here are my best and worst consumer experiences this week:

My best: Several dozen bright, beautiful photos from Ritz Camera

I’m working on selling greeting cards locally featuring my photos.

I had a great time going through my Apple iPhoto library and looking for my best photos. Then I uploaded them to Ritz Pix for printing. I also went through one of my 50 photo albums and pulled negatives to be reprinted. More joy.

My worst: A search for wooden picture frames

I’m applying to sell my photos at a local artists’ gallery. They want the photos to be hung with wires. The shop has pegboard and wire hangers work the best.

I looked at Michaels, Jo-Ann Fabrics & Crafts, Target, and Macy’s but couldn’t find any black wooden ones I liked. I bought three at Jo-Ann’s but I may take them back.

Where do you buy nice-looking picture frames at a reasonable price? Let me know in the Comment section below.
