Why did she have to go and tell me?

[Minstrel]

I recently ordered 250 business cards from Vistaprint all ready to go for when I'm reg'd. I gave a couple to my mum to pass onto friends who were interested (they know i'm not quite reg'd).

But last night my mum rang me up to ask me if i knew there was a spelling mistake on them? No i didnt! I have spelt Environment missing an N out (enviroment). I actually didnt know it had the N in but now i do it looks soooooo wrong.

Now baring in mind i have to getnew ones made up very soon as i'm getting married so new name, should i re-order them anyway with the correct spelling? I'm cross i made the mistake but wish mum hadnt told me because i would have been none the wisier!

Be glad mum told you as prospective parents may have noticed the error and judged you on it.

I would order new ones in your married name - ready and waiting. You could give them out now and new parents would be none the wiser

[madasahatter]

leave it for the time being and correct it when you get married. Most people won't notice

[Daftbat]

Order the new ones when you have changed your name and in the meantime do what i do when someone notices a spelling mistake - tell them you did it on purpose to make sure at least someone reads it!!!!!!!!!:clapping:

[Daddy Day Care]

I agree with Debbie, some people would have noticed the error and judged you, If they see your card before they see you they may think your not very professional.

I would get new ones made up in your married name... I am a stickler for spelling and would notice it immediately.

[huggableshelly]

same here .... order new in your new name

hand the ones you have there out, inform the parents there was a printing error ... blame is on vista LOL

give them to the mindees, mine loved playing with my old ones. I got bored of the design so ordered more

[ORKSIE]

I'd blame it on the printers:thumbsup: :laughing:

I've got to admit i'd be one of the people to judge on a spelling mistake.:blush:

It's not just an everyday typo it's something that should be professional, including correct spelling. I would get another batch printed.

My dad works in a butchers and deliberatly spells things wrong on the board outside so people will come into the shop to tell him:laughing:

I spelt everything perfectly but put googlemail.co.uk instead of .com :censored: But then i hope most people would realise themselves .

On the first adverts I had printed I put 'Sing with your baby' instead of 'sign with your baby'. :blush: :blush: :blush:

Hello folks.

New to the site and in my wandering through the threads I spotted this one.

When using Vistaprint be very careful when it comes to ordering. I have used them plenty of times but the last time I seemed to been unwillingly put into some scheme that involved taking money from my account each month. I managed to catch it as I check my banking all the time. Was not a huge amount but not the point.

http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=202892 has something on it.

I would still use them but be very vary of what you are clicking on. As I have no idea how they conned me on this.

Cheers

Avril
