I don't feel in the least bit Christmassy yet...and our decs aren't even down from the loft lol.

For some reason..to me..it feels like it's only the beginning of December.

All mine are MS Xmas cards (unless I run out) and have been for the past 15 years. I usually stock up in October, this year I have been so unwell over the past week I haven't written ANY yet!

Cheap and cheerful for me this year.

With the best will in the world the stamps cost so bleeding much I have to economise somewhere lol x

Charity shop cards are lovely and a good variety to suit all, I always stock up on blank cards for birthdays from Oxfam or Cancer research - they are much more reasonably priced too.

I'm afraid the trend round our way is for the postman to bend the cards - every single one, regardless of width. My birthday cards were all creased over too. Never had this before, new postman :-| :-| :-|

are changing thank goodness. Have received about 30 so far and only 2 perhaps 3 are not charity cards.

At least something useful is benefiting from the sales.
