I LOVE CHEAP VENDORS

Andy and I were talking about the price of business cards last night. He was telling me how much he could get some business cards and I was astonished at the price. I told him I could get 500 business cards for around $40.00 w/ vistaprint.com. I figured if he was paying to much there are propably a lot of people out there paying to much.

A couple of years ago myself and a few others started a business. We had a shoestring budget to work with so price shopping for vendors was a must. If you are looking to start a small business, cut costs for your current business or know of someone who is starting one here is a list of quality cheap vendors.
