I have an Epson R380 for those 'gotta have it now' one-off prints, but for batches of 4x6's or 5x7's, I upload top-quality (1600 pixel) files to picasaweb and then request prints through a local Walgreens.
I tried uploading directly to the Walgreens photo site, but my batch uploads would be slow and often lock up and fail - going laptop-->picasa-->walgreens works quickly and flawlessly, and the picasa-->walgreens link happens independent of me, in the background.
Also, I've been stunned by the quality my Walgreens produces. Occasionally there are some color problems (too saturated,) but for the most part the prints are excellent.
For large important prints (8x10 or larger) I throw the files on a USB and take it to Kinkos.
Quickie little prints for a neighbor or whatever come off my Epson on premium photo paper.
