Hey buddy... You wanna buy some drugs stickers?

But seriously. I want to have some bumper stickers printed this year. I figured it was nice, heart felt, and under represented on the playa....

Okay.. Everyone has them and they are pretty stupid. I happen to like my design, that's all.

Where can I get them done cheap? When I look around they seem to cost $4 each! I on a budget.. I want them for $1, preferably able to withstand sun, rain, and snow. I don't mind getting a few hundred printed.. Are there any places you've had them printed yourself? Would you recommend their services?

I'd check with a local print shop in your town. Don't know one? Around here our trophy shops have printing & copying also.

Hmmm.. I'll call around in Santa Cruz (where I am now) and Santa Barbara (where I'll be for most of the summer) but I think LA will have chances. Santa Barbara is a tiny town the print shops down there don't do much of anything in shop. Does anyone in LA have a recommendation for places they know of? I'm sure the phone book (or Google uberbrain) will have thousands of listings but where do I start? With locals, naturally!

Start amassing free stickers and glue your shit over it.

Print them on your computer.

I had 100 or 200 bumper stickers made by these guys. I was happy with the quality and they are very durable.

I like to spend locally so I will probably try these guys next.

Good luck. My bumper stickers were well received. I offered to dispose of the backing if the sticker was being applied right away.

Thank you motskyroonmatick. Those are cheaper than a lot of the prices I'm finding. I'm glad to hear they are actually decent stickers too... I would hate to have them fall apart right away!

I used printrunner.com last year and got them pretty cheap, but I had over 1,000 made! They weren't bumper sticker size though, so they were a little cheaper. But they had the best price I found online.

I'd like to get cheaper ones, too. But I use Zazzle. I have had some cheaper ones made, but wasn't happy with them. I can have my photo put on them and selected script. They are shiny, with good stick and seem to last. Since they cost an outrageous amount I can only get a few. But they look very cool. And are much appreciated.

I'm pretty sure printrunner.com is based out of LA but they are online only I think, and they have a minimum order of 500. Last year I made the "first man walked upright, then man burned 2009" evolution stickers, and the one I kept stayed indoors and out of the elements, so if any one used my sticker on their car or other outdoor place, I would really like to know how it held up. Sorry if this brings off topic replies, but if they held up, I'm sure I'll use the same company again, they gave me about 200-400 free stickers on top of the 1,000 I ordered.

My stickers were only 2.25" by 4" I think, but they were only about 6 or 7 cents a piece at 1,000... not including the 20-40% they gave me for free! But the price goes way up for larger stickers, but I was very happy with customer service and delivery time. So they might not be the best for bumper stickers, but for those people who just want something cheap but fun to gift, this might be a good place to go... Over a thousand stickers for less then 70$! If you have a decent size camp, just give every one a stack to pass out through the week and they will be gone in no time!

http://www.123stickers.com/ does good work for very reasonable prices.

I think stickers are a great idea. When I go next year I am bringing a whole bunch of little stickers with a design and my contact info to give to people I meet.
