Cheapest Place to Get T-Shirts

Cheapest I found was Discountmugs.com. Quantity 36 - imprints front and back - cost shipped is $220.

Since I am paying for these myself (they are for my middle school track/field kids), I'm open to looking at other places where I might be able to beat that price. Let me know if you have ideas. I'll be ordering for the high school later this year also.

    We do the same for our team sports...provide the kids with a t-shirt each year. They love it and wear them often. I applaud you for doing this. It does create unity on the team.

    I am surprised your school does not have a supplier that is local or they can recommend? We do that we always go through that helps us to personalize in the way that you are doing. However, with that said, the price you are quoted is pretty darn good. I checked out the site, which I wish I would have known about before.

    Maybe call them...they may give a better price for education/teachers.

    I know a lot of people are using teespring.com but not sure of costs.

    Hmm, didn't think to call them but that's a great idea.

    The school does have their own supplier, but honestly, they are much more expensive than the rates I can get online for smaller quantities. I only have 28 kids. I'm ordering 36 in case I get 8 more.

    They are about double what discountmugs.com is. Thanks for the suggestion, though. I certainly don't mind checking these places out so if anyone has any other thoughts, let me know.

    Going with bold screen printing. 25 shirts, color, front and back graphics. $174.25. Free shipping, too. Thanks for all of the feedback, though. Really do appreciate it!

    Note: Discount mugs says "free shipping" but the cost of my shirts appeared to increase when I put in my zip code :noway: . I'm a little too thrifty for that route so I'll make due with 25 shirts instead.
