Looking for a company to print 100 water bottles for our club.

Anyone have any experience with this? I've found a few online... wondering what companies BF members have used.

It's going to cost you a fortune to do the art work and set-up for that small a qty. I use to buy them 10,000 at a time to get decent pricing from california springs which is one of the better bottles.

I'll check it out. Artwork is nearly done, in vibrant digital. I can hopefully get it into any format they need.

10,000. I wouldn't know what to do if our club was that big.

most t-shirt silk screen shops do it.
there is a set up charge, a bottle charge and a per color charge.
Usually only do qty of 200 or more.
