Since the UPS store opened in our business area they have had a sign,  
color copy sale 39¢. We don't advertise it, but our self serve color  
copies have always been 29¢. Having the self serve allows us to point  
to the machine for those who want cheapo copies. Now digital color  
printing, that's a different price.

On another note, the UPS stores uses the machine which you can plug  
your usb style thumb drive into and print direct off of it (certain  
types of files).
