Mini wall calendar printing, 8.5 x 5.5 (opens to 8.5 x 11)
Our mini wall calendar printing starts at 10 copies: 8.5 x 5.5 in closed, opening to 8.5 x 11 on the wall. It has the same 28 pages and options as our 11 x 8.5 wall calendar, at a lower price per copy.
When to choose the mini
Pick the mini when cost, wall space or mailing matters more than photo size.
- Budget giveaways: 100 minis cost $409 ($4.09 each), against $659 ($6.59 each) for 100 of the larger calendar.
- Small walls and fridges: open on the wall, it is the size of a letter sheet.
- Mailing: the closed calendar fits a 6 x 9 in envelope. Add one per calendar for $0.75.
- One per household: churches that give every family a calendar keep the cost per copy down. See church calendars.
