Default Good and Fast Photo Finishing

I've left it to the last minute again and need to get some digital photos printed ASAP for family. Any suggestions on a go to place for photo finishing? At this point I need decent quality (snapshots not art) and speed.

Superstore is fast, and I've found the quality to be alright for my needs.

I've used London Drugs in the past. You can submit the photos online and usually pick them up within a few hours afterwards...

I've used the Kodak Instant printer machines inside Walmart a few times and never had issues with the photo quality. Plenty of size and other options for the photo's as well.

The big upside is it's immediate. Soon as you pay them at the counter and get your code, the photo's start printing.

Nobody beats Costco these days. Extremely fast and cheap.

+1 for London Drugs. Easy to order everything from home and just go pick it up.

This was the closest of the recommended options. Got about 80 prints back in 2 hrs

Still? I used to get photo books and such done there, quality was exceptional especially for the price. Found the quality fell off a cliff the last few years.

Are the basic prints still good?
