Do you ever send paper cards through the mail?
It can be so special to get a card in the mail anymore. Do you still send cards through the postal service? What are you thoughts on paper vs email vs nothing at all.
Sometimes I send e-cards for birthdays, but for my parents or really close friends who live far away, I usually send a real card in the mail. I know how it feels to get a card you can hold in your hands.

I think that sending a paper card takes an extra step and really shows that you took the effort to remember this special person in your life.
Yes. Greetings cards and personal letters are a waste of space via email.
I still send birthday and Christmas cards but that really is about all, with the price of stamps due to rise I may even switch to e-cards from now on.

it has been a long time since I have done that or even bought stamps for that matter...don't even know how much the price of a stamp is off hand:)
Yes I still send cards through the mail. Reading a birthday or Christmas card is like reading a book.
I don't remember when was the last time I sent a paper card through the mail. Paper cards, sure, do have its own charm and appeal.

Emails are efficient, fast, and very convenient but a physical paper card, letter is something special.
i think the paper card is better then the e card because the paper card will have your really special attention and you are actually showing the care and love fo the other person instead of the e car d actually

I select paperless billing when ever it is offered. I bank on line and pay my bills that way to reduce paper useage. Every week I am bombarded with junk mail and offers for credit cards I don't want or need. While sitting around mad at the injustice of this, I remembered a novel way to send a...
