cheap shirts

[thomaslawncare]

Alot of small timers can't always afford shirts with their logos on them because of set up costs and minimum orders etc. I use www.cafeshops.com. There are no setup costs or minimum orders. You obviously will pay a few $$ extra for each item since you are doing small orders but it beats some of the prices alot of people pay. Their quality is good and they deliver quickly. They can also do coffee cups, hats, mouse pads and some other things. Take a look at mine for example and you can also see the prices..... http://www.cafeshops.com/thomaslawncare

how much does it come per shirt?
JDL offers less than $6 per shirt with whatever logo you want(single color), they just put their small 1x1in logo on the left sleeve.

the ones I have selected around $14, but they are thick high quality tee shirts (not saying your aren't). Mine I have set up with full size logo on back and small on breast pocket area. If you want to get alot of them they are not the cheapest way to go...but if you just need a few...they are not too bad!

mine are heavy weight t's and a whole lot better than what I got locally the previous years. They're made by Gildan and the prices I get them for are far cheaper than what they have listed on their webpage.
Just goes to show you how big a business' can influence business'. Or they take a hit and write it off as advertisement.
My shirts are set up just like yours, logo size and postion. One of the downfalls are the available color of shirts that JDL will get; white, something that looks gray/white(looks like the ones you have shown) and then a third color, I want to say green but maybe not(didn't get any of those). And another is that you have to get something like 20 but that's only $180 and you don't pay a setup fee. Through cafeshop, you'd only get 12 shirts not to include s&h which I don't pay either and possibly a setup fee. One more downfall with JDL is that they're aren't locally available to everybody but if it is,, this is the way to go.

If you really want some shirts with logo's but can't afford screenprinting, you can always do the iron on transfer's. Altogether, you can make a shirt for about 4 dollars (shirt included). I already have screenprinted shirts, but thought I would try it to see if it worked. It does a pretty good job, not quite as nice as screen printing, but hey, it does in a pinch.

I started out with the iron on transfers that I designed and printed on the computer. They do alright but fade out fairly quick.

I now get mine done by a local shop. Tan colored shirt with Green and Black writing. They run me about $8 a shirt and $12 for a sweatshirt. They have a bunch of colors of shirts to pick from.

I have been dealing with them for about 3 years now and all I have to do if I need more is call them up and tell them how many I want and what sizes and they call when they are ready. I don't have to order any minimum quantity. The only time I had to order a minimum was the first time. I had to order 12 shirts. I ordered 9 tshirts and 3 sweat shirts and that covered the first time minimum.

The shirts are Hanes and I have some of the first ones that I bought and they have not faded.
