I thought I was saving money buying cards in the supermarket. Then I discovered this shop. Amazing quality & so cheap. If you MUST send cards this is a fabulous shop.

I agree.

My mum was looking for a nice "grandson" birthday card, we looked in all the more expensive card shops and they didn't have any nice ones. We went into Card Factory and she got a lovely card for 59p.

I like them because many of their cards are so plain. Perhaps they're trying to cut costs but a Birthday or Best Wishes card with a fairly simple design on the front, blank/with a limited text inside and a plain coloured envelope suits me just fine. Much better than the flowery awfulnesses that all the local shops seem to have in stock.

7 for £1 a few days ago.

It's just a piece of card with a picture on it at the end of the day isn't it?.

You don't always like the people you buy for anyway, do you?

I have my Christmas cards for this year, I bought loads "from the both of us" in the sales.

You can buy online too (can't do a link on tablet). Really quick delivery

Asda is great too. Just got a pack of eight generic biscuit picture style birthday cards for 1. I do love card factory for their 59p personalised (well nan, grandad etc) cards
