Bulk buying greeting cards

[LifeBeginsNow]

Has anyone got a good website (and maybe a discount code) for buying greeting cards? I like to do it in January and get them all ready for the year.

I don’t have a discount code but whistlefish.com cards are very good value. Cards are £1.80 each or ten for £9. There’s loads to choose from, and they’re lovely quality.

A top tip if you’ve got loads of cards to send (good for when you’re children go to loads of parties) is to buy the tins of notelets. They’re £8.95 for 15 (in a cute tin) or you can get two tins for 12. The cards are all different and although they’re slightly smaller than the other cards, the quality is just as good.

Delivery is free over £25

Clearly depends what you mean by 'greeting cards'??? Thank you, sympathy, get well, Christmas, thinking of you???

Sorry, I'm not sure what type you mean specifically, but I've used this company before who seem reasonable and have some very funny ones:

What are you wanting to buy? The cost varies enormously. If you just want something generic, eg for endless parties that DC attend, Card Warehouse do 5/7/10 for £1 offers regularly, that are absolutely fine.

I get nice boxes from Costco, that work out at 30-50 pence per card if you use the whole box, which I don't, but I do use most of them over a few years so much cheaper than going somewhere like Clintons or WH Smith where a single card costs at least £3

It'll be happy birthday cards mostly.

I like the idea of notelets. It was whistlefish I used last year (couldn't remember the name). I found them very good too but just wanted to see if there was a better bargain to be had. It always seems so expensive up front with the number I buy but I know it'll work out loads cheaper in the long run.

I get all mine from charity shops as they are decent value, nearly all of them have a card range.

Whistlefish have a discount WELCOME20 for 20% discount but I'm guessing it might be first time users only. Worth a look though.

Asda sells cards for 28p!

I bulk buy from the supermarkets nearly all do cheap ranges that are absolutely fine.
I get a couple from each supermarket (Sainsbury's, Morrison's, Tesco) or from Home bargains when I go in so that there is always a big bundle in the drawer.

Just go to Card Factory. They usually have an offer of generic cards with no specific message (suitable for children and adults) for 10 for £1. Quality is fine. Cards are nice.

Agree with Whistlefish, I've just ordered cards for first 6 months of the year. Generally on their bulk deal 90p for a card and really good quality

This - and their £1.50 cards are 3 for £3.00.

I don't normally shop at asda but will go have a look. When I'm in other supermarkets, the cards seem to be about £3 each which is OK now and again but not very cost effective getting all from there.

I will have a browse in charity shops too when I'm next in town.

It's lucky January is a quiet month for birthdays so I've got time to play with.

100% Whistlefish. They are lovely cards, really nice quality.

I got to Card Factory and get 5 for £1 for birthday cards. Or there's some for 29p which when you buy in bulk is cheap too.

Try Flamingo Paperie cards, good prices, discount for 10 or more. Good range, new designs introduced through year. I sell them because I wanted to send good quality, environmentally good, British designed, sourced (eg paper, inks) and produced. I love that we buy from local independent artists too. www.flamingopaperie.co.uk/web/anjithomson
