Does anyone else NOT send out holiday cards?

I always receive tons of cute holiday cards...but I have never sent any out myself. Am I the only one?

One year I didn't...it was after i graduated college and i think i was just too poor to even buy cards, lol!

But every year since I do, and especially since a baby...I really enjoy writing out cards and receiving them :)

I guess because we're Jewish and have very small families. Even though I do get cards from some of those in my family. I love seeing all the cards and I keep them, so I can see everyone get bigger from year to year

I dunno really Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

You're not the only one. I don't send them either. I look at it this way, whoever I want to say Merry Christmas to, I see and say it in person or call them. Cards are the last thing I am concerned with during the this time of year.

I don't - and I hardly receive any.

Honestly, I think it's a cultural difference - I've never even heard of sending/receiving holiday cards until I graduated from College and moved in with my boyfriend who wasn't Jewish. Growing up we never did this with family/friends.

We didn't either. Come to think of it...all the ones we receive from family, are those with spouses who are not Jewish Chat Icon
