wow i guess the thought doesnt count huh...

by the way im having my sister mail my christmas cards from her job so i dont have to pay for postage... hows that for cheap lol



I don't have the money nor do I want just a pic of me on it so I don't spend the $$ for expensive cards.

I don't care what card I get, as long as I get cards.

I too used the postage machine at work! Chat Icon Shhhhh.

I chose other, because not only do I not care what quality the card is...I don't care if someone doesn't send a holiday card.



Chat Icon I'm the same way

Re: Do you get annoyed when you receive "inexpensive" Holiday Cards?

honestly ...and call me cheapo if you wanna but i hit the dollar store sometimes and stock up on cards for thank your for birthdays etc.....( i dont just crab and go i actually read them all before buying) ....9 times out of 10 the person getting the card is just going to throw it out eventually anyway so why should i spend like 5 bucks on it ...i rather buy a cheaper card and write something from the heart ...if they can look past that and flip the price on the back well then dont send me a card and i wont send one back :)

Re: Do you get annoyed when you receive "inexpensive" Holiday Cards?

I don't care if a card is $0.99 or $5. The fact that I got a card is more than enough.

It's not like someone wrote me a card on a used napkin.

Re: Do you get annoyed when you receive "inexpensive" Holiday Cards?

This might be the silliest thing I have ever read on LIF that someone got annoyed over. I am just happy to get a card. I give out photo cards. I use the free return address things that charities send me when I make donations. Now I will say I noticed the quality that my bank's card looks cheaper this year but I don't care, I would rather have a higher interest rate than a card.

Re: Do you get annoyed when you receive "inexpensive" Holiday Cards?

just happy to get one back....

honestly some of those charities send christmas cards. it seems so wasteful to not use them, sometimes i do pass them off to someone who needs it, but this year it came in handy as certain people I did not feel like mailing photo cards to(do to a special situation) so I mailed those instead.

Well I am the cheapest of the cheap. . .before I did photo cards of my dog and then DD. . .I bought this HUGE box of cheapo cards and I got three years of use out of them! The same card Chat Icon three years in a row.

ETA: Also to save money I handed out the coworker cards at work AND since most of my family lives locally I even hand delivered a few

Re: Do you get annoyed when you receive "inexpensive" Holiday Cards?

When my grandma passed away she had a couple of boxes, some unopned, of older Christmas cards.

Instead of letting them go to waste, I used them. I also thought they were cool and vintage-y.

Re: Do you get annoyed when you receive "inexpensive" Holiday Cards?

This is too funny.

I will be the first to admit that i've wondered if my cards are "too cheap" compared to the pretty ones I receive. I usually send simple cards that makes me smile/giggle - something funny. I've received a lot of cards where the kids are professionally photographed, etc. and i've wondered when I sent mine if I look like a cheapo but.......seriously, it's the thought. Now i'm wondering if people really do think that of me?! lol
