First Birthday Invite Typo...what would you do?

Just ordered super cute invitations for my son's first birthday.  Immediatly after ordering, I realized that I had a typo.  I emailed and called immediatly and they told me it was too late as it goes straight from the computer to the printer.  I ordered them from Tiny Prints which are pricey.  They offered me a reprint at 40% of the original price.  Still this is a lot of money.  Do you think anyone will notice that I typed:  "calling all superheros" as opposed to "calling all superheroes"

So bummed...

I doubt people would notice and if they do, well, make a joke of it at the party! I'd go ahead and use them instead of wasting money and buying more. That's a very minor oops :)

Well, you weren't calling all "superspellers" so don't worry about it. Honestly, I always notice things like this, but I know most people are too busy to either notice or care, so no point in buying more, or even giving it too much thought. Just claim "mom brain" if anyone mentions it.

It's fine. I'm sure very few (if any) will notice.

it's not like you misspelled your kid's name!

i like the suggestion of making it a game (for older kids that will be there?)...

I would think of a clever sticker you could apply to the cards once you receive them to make it better... and print them at home

I'm sure people will not show up because of it (just kidding). I bet no one will even notice. And if anyone does, blame the vendor.

I had to look at that for a good 5 minutes to figure out the typo..and I have a college degree :) very few will notice and for the ones that do, blame it on the printer. You could redo it and order the "sample" later if it really bugs you and you want a corrected one for the baby book.

Use them. Just wanted to share that on our Christmas cards I forgot to change the font color so it printed black on black making the message virtually invisible. So there were pictures of my lovely children with no message! Grrr. I sent them with a note anyway as I didn't have the time to redo.

Tiny Prints claims to review all of their work to look for mistakes. They should have caught the misspelling!
