Well there is CVS. Getting single 4 inch prints, with negatives and a CVS CD will run you about $14 bucks. Also, they suck at their jobs so you will always get scratched negatives.

Walmart will give you the same deal for about $11, but they ship the film off to a Fujifilm lab, where they actually know how to properly develop film.

Target no longer develops film.

Costco will of course get you a great deal, but you need to be a member.

Go with Walmart, who ships the film to a pro lab.

CVS will send film to an outside lab, too, Flim. I found a cpl of old disposables about a year ago and went to the CVS in West Springfield to try and get them developed and they all laughed at the dinosaur LoLz.

Anywho, took about a week or two till I got bac a bunch of fked up pics that apparently had been taken by 4 yr olds lol

The small stores like the one in the Giant shopping center in Burke does it. Right next to Sweet frog. I think they still do it in-store.

Costco processes 35mm color film and in my experience they are the best of the "non-photography" places like Walgreens or Walmart.

Ace Photo out in Sterling processes film.

Penn Camera used to process film but I don't know if they still do since the whole bankruptcy and buy out thing. They were my choice for medium format slide film but I haven't shot of that in a while. I normally shoot B&W film and process it myself.

not all CVS stores develop film anymore nor ship it out. CVS took the equipment out of a number of their stores.

Maybe my old brain made it up but didn't I see the Penn Camera in Tysons Corner is closing? and seems like I saw one of the few remaining Ritz stores was closing up

anyone know if fuller d'albert in Fairfax City does retail film processing anymore
