Question Help Please - what's the best way to do lettering for 300+ t-shirts and what's a good tee to use?

Okay, my daughter's school needs 300-350 t-shirts pressed with the school name on front, year on back and the student's name on back - I'm trying to give them the cheapest price I can without anything coming out of my pocket!

So I need cheapest decent tee shirts, and somebody to tell me the most cost effective way to do lettering - I have a cutter but I'm thinking I might be better time wise to buy pre-cut - is it worth it and if so what's the best source???

Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Transfer Express will screenprint name transfers for 1.40 ea, cutting would be less costly, but you would need to weed all the names. buying the individual letters would be the cheapest, but also the most time consuming...i would cut & weed or buy the tranfers.

So I need cheapest decent tee shirts,
Look into Gildan or Anvil t-shirts from any of the major blank t-shirt wholesalers
