Default How Many People Still Send Xmas Cards?

Hi all

I know my wife Donna and I send few real Christmas cards any longer, though we do send some virtual ones as well. What about you?

Chris

Aye. I think though that sending real Christmas cards is dying out though. Don't you?

I haven't noticed a difference Chris. In addition to sending Chrimbo cards, I will probably send more electronic greetings this year than I've ever done before. I'll still send the cards though, I'm spending less and less on cards tbh.

I wounded up all the money I spent on Chritmas card and stamps. I asked my bank to send this to *Children in need*

No Cards from me this year.

I absolutely love to send and receive Christmas greeting cards. Even if I have a busy schedule, I try to find that ONE minute it takes to think of someone you really care about.. and send them some loving thoughts..with a pretty Christmas card to hang or put on their mantle.. I appreciate the art and the tradition of cards....

I appreciate the jesture in general... PEACE AND ALOHA...

Aprt from the obvious family members I give one to everybody I work with, as well as send them to distant cousins and the like who I only ever see at funerals and weddings. I dont give them to my closest male friends and dont get them back off them either, just not one of the things we've ever done.

I love giving out cards to all my family,friends & neighbours( not the weird ones )
I love receiving them too
I don't think giving out virtual cards has the same meaning as getting a real card that someone has spent time in choosing & writing rather than a mass email they send to everyone on there address list

I love to send and receive Xmas cards some times it is the only yearly link we have with people we rarely see. I know to send them is expensive but i will carry on for the time being. I do buy charity cards too ..
