Walgreens - Passport photo question

[jetstorm]

I did a search and couldn't find anything about passport photos at WAGs. Can anyone tell me if they take the photos and how much they charge?
I know CVS charges $7.99. Anyone know of any place cheaper than this?

7.99 for the passport photos...not sure if all stores take them..but think so:shrug7:

Be careful with Walgreens passport photos. I applied for my passport today, and the passport agent told me that the woman ahead of me had to redo her photo because Walgreens did not follow the passport directions (the woman had her hair pulled back in the Walgreens photo which is not allowed). Another friend of mine had her Walgreens photo rejected because of improper lighting in the photo. I'm not sure how much it saves you to have your photo taken at Walgreens, but it might not be worth it if you have to pay for a second photo when you apply.

if you photos are turned down for any reason....... I would suggest going back to the store they were taken in and talk to them. We have redone some when the pictures were turned down. IMO you shouldn't have to pay again if your pictures were denied.

I agree that Walgreens would probably just retake the picture for free, but these people I'm referencing just found it easier to pay the passport agent to retake the picture instead of heading back to Walgreens and then back to the passport agent again.

Sounds to me like.........if you have your passport photos taken at Walgreens......you need to hang on to the envelope and receipt until you apply for your passport and they say your pics are ok..........then if they say nope.......take them back for a refund.

Thanks for the advice. I had them taken at CVS where I shop a lot and they look great to me, but I will still hang onto the receipt until they are accepted for athe passport.

I recently had mine taken at Walgreens and received my passport with no problems.

Had mine done at RA yesterday for $7.99; that must be the going rate for pharmacies.

I was going to say we had ours done at Walgreens and no problems when we got our passports. $7.99. I have seen them run specials for it though.
