I suspect in the end, the cost is about the same per print (ink is expensive, so is the paper). But is the quality any better from LD/Blacks/Costco/etc? I personally haven't had any printed up at a shop in a couple years so I don't have any to compare to- but am always happy with what comes out of my printer at home.

How many photos are you printing at home? The number of photos you'd need to print to even break even for the cost of the printer would be close to 2000. Assuming you're saving 20 cents on each 4x6.
