well she said she pays 7£ a pop to get 38 photos developed so buying of the packages is probably cheaper in the long run.

HP is the better of the two, more pixels and has an optical zoom.
But i reckon you would be better to buy a better camera for the money and develop the pictures on line, or even at a supermarket. Works out cheaper and you dont have to pay a set up cost of buying the printer yourself

Yeah canon a520 is good, but dont forget extra memory card, and you may want rechargable batteries.
