Fires, floods, fingernails, certified squashers, and curious baby hands are waiting to ruin your precious photographs. Protect your memories with today’s Groupon: for $25, you get $75 worth of digital services from ScanCafe. Your loved ones will thank you for preserving the happy times instead of sticking the prints in your bicycle spokes because they like the sound it makes.

Don't let photos of your father's 1967 pasta-sauce party and Uncle Reggie’s injurious piñata incident fade in albums, shoeboxes, and wheel wells. ScanCafe’s photo doctors have scanned more than 48 million images since the company’s launch in 2006, carefully restoring beloved prints of family reunions, baby birthdays, and harpsichord competitions. Whether you have paper, color, or black-and-white pictures (up to 11"x14"); color 35mm slides; color 35mm negatives; newspaper clippings; children’s artwork; or prized postcards, you can now have them backed up and improved through top-of-the-line high-resolution technology. Your pictures will be scanned and fixed up individually by hand, fixing red eye and scratches and refreshing faded colors to their true photogenic potential.

Pack your selections and send them off to ScanCafe and when the conversion to digital is complete, you get the original copies back, along with a DVD of high-resolution duplicate scans. Your pictures will travel safely, backed by a $1,000 cash guarantee unparalleled by any other scanning service.

Give the gift of refined memories to yourself or a loved one who has been painstakingly painting forgeries of all his favorite pictures for the last five years.
