Christmas Cards

  • fan_from_texas
    Do you send them out? If so, how many? Do you do a newsletter, picture card, regular card, what?


    We're dropping ours in the mail this morning. We've trimmed down our list to about 80, and we're using a picture card of our two kids this year.

    My wife sends them but we don't put in a whole lot of effort. I have no idea how many we send or to whom.

    Used to. Don't anymore.

    We don't send out Christmas cards. We didn't even decorate this year.

    I think we sent out cards when we first moved in together but only the first year. Not sure if/when we'll start doing it again.

    Nope sure dont. Trying to get out of the whole christmas thing together. Not even doing gifts with my mom this year.

    We send about 100-120 a year. Shutterfly makes it pretty easy to slap them together with a few pics, and the price is reasonable.

    Mrs. Fish is pretty obsessed with getting/receiving Christmas cards.

    Bro's and sis get a funny card. Mom and pop get the sappy loves and hugs Xmas card.

    I never have but my wife kinda brought that with her in marriage. Some I get but it's stupid to send a bunch a cards to people you don't care enough to talk to all year....but hey, MERRY CHRISTMAS from all of us and our dog Gus.

    If I got a Christmas card from the dog Cletus, then I would be astatic.

    Years ago the family sent out Christmas Cards 100 or more .... not any more

    Business I would buy 2 pallets from Sams of Christmas cookies or candy and UPS out to my customers ... not any more

    Only the biggest and wealthy and the good paying customers now get gifts :D
    I make sure my vendors get something nice....

    My wife sends out about 60. I don't touch them, pick them out or anything.

    Just a handful to out-of-town relatives.
  • that_guy
    My wife has a stack of about 100 picture cards printed out and sitting on the counter. She claims she'll be sending them out soon, I've already made it very clear to her that I will not help at all.
