If you're in a huge rush and money is no object, go to any Kinkos and
use the Kodak Photo Express machine.  They charge $6.99 for a sheet
which can hold 3 4x6, 2 5x7 or one 8x10.  Other places have the machines
(Wolf's, CVS, Kmart) and pricing varies.  

Wolf camera's print@Wolf service is unfortunately just a mail service,
using Kodak's photonet.  And they charge over 2x what the web services
charge: 1.10 for a 4x6, instead of .49.  I haven't tried them because of
the price surcharge.

I have used Shutterfly and Ofoto.  Shutterfly prints the pictures the
day you upload them and you can get next-day delivery if you want to
pay.  Regular mail delivery takes maybe 3 days. When I order on a
Monday, I get the prints on Thursday, sometimes Wednesday.  They give
you a bunch of free prints when you sign up.  I'd gve them a try and see
what you think.   

I have had dozens of prints made at Shutterfly and have been thrilled
with the quality, speed and communication.  I had one order made at
Ofoto.  The prints were way darker than the files I'd uploaded.  They
did a reprint for free, but they were still dark.  I had some of the
pictures redone at my own expense at Shutterfly, and they were great.
