overpriced Christmas cards

Worse than ever this year. A normal size card in Clintons is at least £2.50. Quite a lot at £4. I spent over £10 on 4 cards

Might as well just buy them here: www.gildedagegreetings.com/Gilded-Age-Greetings-Custom-Holiday-Cards-And-Handmade-Greeting-Cards/

Xmas Shock how much (on your link)??!! And, indeed, what you paid - I'm sure they were very nice though.

Right, you want nice cards: go to Card Factory on the high street - lovely family title ones that look a lot more expensive than they are. I got large family titles (mum & dad etc) for about 99p. But I didn't pay this, oh no, stingy Everyday buys them in Jan at half price so they were about 50p each in Jan 12, then I put them in the loft with the christmas decs to store until Dec Xmas Smile.

thats why I dont buy cards with family titles on them - everyone gets a card from the same box of cards as buying single cards is a waste of money

I've ordered most of my cards via moonpig uk and Australia, as so much more cheaper than buying a crappy plain Hallmark card for $6, when I can add photos and personalize them for less, and get them sent. I got 50% off after buying 5 or more cards.

Took forever to do, but well worth it.
