Flickr photo printing at Target is a Web of LIES!

I've always been enamored with the idea of sending my photos from Flickr to a Target for pickup in an hour. So imagine... When I actually need to take advantage of this service, I discover the service is actually a great big bucket of donkey crap.

I called Target before leaving the house to pick up the photos and they said the photos might not be ready for another 24 hours. I told the woman that the website said they'd be ready in an hour, but she simply responded that it could take a full day.

I asked to speak to a manager who sounded exasperated with the question. She said that the processing time for the Target photo lab WAS 1 hour, but that Flickr had a habit of not sending the order to stores for up to 24 hours.

What the hell, Flickr? You can't get it together to send a freakin' email of attached photos in less than 24 hours?
