Do you still send cards?

Re: Do you still send cards?

I send real cards to people I really care about - the ones I'm sure won't chuck it straight into the garbage immediately after opening it. Other people get e-cards. I love getting real mail from real people. I think I appreciate it a lot more now because it is so rare.

I send really funny e-cards that they would want to keep for at least a week.

I do both. For Birthdays I tend to send cards by snail mail, but at Christmas and other holidays I send e-cards to those who use email and regular cards to those who don't. We still have some family members and friends who never use a computer, if you can imagine that! :-)

Seeing as they now cost over �2 each I tend not to bother.

Err if I remembered they were havining a birthday I would send a car, but I never do, lucky if anyone gets a call in the same week (and VERY lucky if the birthday is mentioned!)

I know that is terrible, something I am working on.

Oh but if I were to send a card, I have kids, they make them

Cheap and means a lot to the relatives.

I really want to stop. What is the point of sending Christmas cards to people you don't even interact with over the course of the year! Birthday cards are a horse of a different color and I usually send them or hand them to immediate family members and very close friends. It can get very expensive after a while!!

For close friends and family I do

I always send out Christmas cards. I do the photo Christmas cards of the kids.

Hubby and I usually make our own cards and send them out to his family. Aside from that, we're not quite into the mass card mailings

Rarely. I never seem to remember in time. But for my international friends we do a birthday phone call to keep in touch and a christmas card.

I enjoy writing letters and sending cards, not just for birthdays and holidays! My friends and I all enjoy sending and receiving mail. It's nice to get a surprise in the mailbox instead of just staying in touch by emails.

Re: Do you still send cards?

We always send Birthday and Christmas cards. Thankfully, hubby no longer insists on a letter with each Christmas card!

I do e-cards for those who are online. I also send out about 20 real cards.

I send cards, especially to elderly people. E-cards go to everyone else.

Good point. My older relatives don't care much for e-cards. Especially the ones who don't have email.
