What company offers the best Black Friday photo book deals?

After testing a number of the best photo book services, we think that Mixbook and Printique are the two best services. Both have software that's incredibly easy to use and give you a full array of editing tools, so you can make your photo book the way you want it.

Outside of Black Friday, both services are competitively priced, but during the holiday season, Mixbook offers the better discounts — as much as 50% off in some cases — so it's best to look on their site for deals.

Most companies will offer pretty good deals that go through the holiday shopping season, but each day will offer different discounts. Just remember to order your photo books as soon as possible, or you'll be paying a lot more for expedited shipping.

What's the latest I can order a photo book and have it arrive in time for Christmas?

If you're a procrastinator, you can wait almost until the last minute to order a photo book, but you're going to have to pay a whole lot more for shipping.

Every photo book company will list on its site estimated shipping times and deadlines, as well as multiple options for expedited shipping.

Even then, there's no guarantee that your gift will arrive in time — the postal service and other shipping companies get very backed up around the holidays, and winter weather can also affect when something gets to your door.

It's best to play it safe — and save yourself some money — by ordering a photo book as far in advance as possible.
