Not sure where you are located but a store like Ritz or even a printing store like Signs Now should be able to print/enlarge them for you. If not there are several mail order companies that have a pretty good reputation. http://www.bluemooncamera.com/ in Portland, Oregon
You could treat yourself to a flatbed negative scanner and print them yourself? I think it may be cheaper in the long run, esp as can sell the scanner if you no longer wanted it. And you'd have the added bonus of being able to touch up any flaws if you wanted, before you printed them out. Just an idea!!
@blightygal I would like to scan them myself.My mother saved all or a lot of her negatives and her mothers negatives.So I have a lot of the in many different shapes and sizes.I do have a Kodak p460 personal photo scanner that works ok on negatives 1980's and newer.But it is in the older ones that I think the real treasures would be at.
The last tme I looked at a store for scanner.I wanted one that would scan negatives. The kid I talked to never heard of such a thing.But that was 2 years ago and I didn't know what to call it.The next time I go to town I will ask for a flatded negative scanner.Thank you Freida and @shadesofgrey
@shadesofgrey@blightygal Been thinking about it and talking to friends about what I should do to develope so many old pictures and I liked what freida said.But one of my friends said there was a good photo shop near by.So what Iam thinking is seeing if they could just have them developed them into digital.Saving on all the ink and paper and I could tweek them and pick out only the one's I like. It might just be a dream but Iam going to see if that can be done.
@wildernesswillie What do you mean developed into digital? Isnt that the same as scanning it - getting a file on the computer?! Hope you can get it all done ok, without costing too much money. Going to be great to see them! Good luck :-)
The photo shop "should" have a better scanner than most of us can afford....probably a drum scanner. I would see what they would charge before going out to buy a flat bed scanner....unless you plan on using film frequently in the future, then it would be a good investment.

Both are reputable and trustworthy if you end up needing to send them off.
