This is a silly post but how do folks get photographs for passports and visas? Kinda tired of Walgreens gouging me by charging $17 for 2 headshots.

Was going to respond with the same answer…

I use this app and then print them for like 30 cents at CVS

That’s awesome, thank you!

Edit: be also helpful to know if there’s places to print them for reasonable prices if I get the right sized digital photos online.

I think if you apply online you just attach your own photo, but $17 every like 10 years….

You are correct. There is always the option. I chose the other option.

I don’t understand why you need to pay $17 for two pictures, I went to Walgreens one time like 15 years ago and got like 30 copies of the photos and I still have some left
Even if you just copy them yourself, this should be a one time activity

I’ve had a travel visa refused once when I did it up myself. You’d surprised how ridiculous some consulates can get. And the standard option for passport sized photos is 2 copies *only* at Walgreens

I have always just done Walgreens or CVS for my passport photos but I have to say I do not remember it being $17 for two photos. I will say that I got them done like five or six years ago so it was probably cheaper then. With inflation I am not surprised they are this much.

It sure is that expensive now. And sometimes they print it but refuse to “cut it up” for some visas stating that’s outside of protocol for them 😂 after charging that much

FedEx

Yes that’s more like $20

I’ve recently started work at a very young tech startup. Coming from a big law background, this was a huge change of pace/environment. I’m having a lot of trouble getting used to how unstructured the startup is. It feels like hire ups give a set of instructions then talk as if they don’t remember, or then decided rules A, B, C and D applies without being clear this was the case. Is this just the general startup environment? If you experienced this before, how did you deal with It?

A very busy sidewalk on a very busy intersection in my neighborhood is occupied by a group of homeless individuals who brought all their belongings there (tents, chairs, mattresses, bags, etc.). There are piles and piles of trash, empty liquor bottles, cigarette butts, needles, and God knows what else. Police is obviously uninterested in doing anything. Is there anything I can do to have them moved somewhere else? (And please spare me a lecture on horrors of inequity and housing crisis)
