Where to get engraved name tags

[treacle-well.livejournal.com]

I need to get a few engraved plastic name tags quickly, and figure there must be some place locally that does these so I don't have to waste time/money on shipping. But I've never had to purchase such a thing and am at a loss as to where find such a business. Got any ideas?

Seconding danger!awesome. They're friendly, helpful and reasonably priced.

But that website looks way too fancypants for what I want, and I hate having to go through too much trouble to get the info I need.

Nono, their website needs to be updated. All you do is show up - it's one big room, and somebody there will help you right away.

Yup, I walked in there a few months back with a photo I wanted engraved onto wood. I had it in hand just a couple of hours later.

i am guessing the petco tags vending machine wouldn't be appropriate?

[treacle-well.livejournal.com]

I have no idea. But probably not if the tags don't come with pins. And since one would probably not be pinning a tag to one's pet...

Dickson's hardware in Harvard Square does it.

Yeah, I was going to say "I think this is an old-fashioned hardware store sort of service".

I got a nametag for my dog years ago at a small place in the Woburn Mall, off the highway 38 exit of 128. The place was close-ish to the McDonalds, across from where the Fabric Place used to be. I tried looking online for them, but found this place instead which might work for you as well (it's apparently in a mall, so you can go over the weekend):

Wouldn't Tags in Porter Square be able to do it? I think whoever is in charge of copying keys can do engravings on signs and name tags.

I was thinking that was a possibility, but couldn't recall if I'd seen anything like that there or was imagining. I just might give them a call.

Tags has this kind of thing in the basement.
