The anecdata of my random Walgreen photos seem to be holding up pretty well in the living room and hallway environment that they live in. We have some done from their "photo copy" machines from 20 years ago. Mind, I don't have master originals to do a side by side comparison, but using the Mark 1 Eyeball, they look fine. They're doing much better than my 50 year old polaroid.
While I can print photos, it's typically far easier and cheaper to have Walgreens do it.
