Christmas is around the corner,will you send greeting cards to your friends?
Will you buy greeting cards in the store,then send by post,or just send by email-the electronic greeting cards?
I prefer electronic greeting cards, it is environment-friendly and most important, it is free and fast!How about you,my lotters?Merry Christmas!~

Very few will be getting a card in the mail this year. Maybe 10 people in all. Everyone else will be sent an e-card. Postage is to expensive for me to send to everyone. Merry Christmas to you too.
Thanks lelin1123.@acer5540 (354)

Yes,e-cards take the place of post cards day by day.
But he feeling of receive a post card is not the same as e-card,it is more exciting and moving.
Nowadays, some sentimental person still send cards with a small gift.So,i think the post card will go on play the role.Such like though the e-book is popular,the paper books and magazine are still have the stage.right?
Merry Christmas!

I have sent some greeting cards to my friends. Some of them I have sent via snail mail and some of them I have sent via email. I do a combination of both things. It is easier to send greeting cards by email, but some of my friends don't have a computer, so I can't send emails to them. I was planning on making my own christmas cards this year, but I was too busy with other things, so I ended up buying some cards instead. I hope I will manage to make my own cards next year.

The number of greeting cards that I send has eventually deceased with years. Nowadays e-cards has been the most preferred way of wishing my friends..So I send ecards to my friends and neighbours..My grandpa and grandma prefer the greeting cards than the virtual ecards.So I usually send then greeting cards..But to tell the truth, with the coming of ecards, the number of greeting cards has decreased a lot..

Before, I used to buy greeting cards, but since I started to use the internet, I found it more practical to just send e-mail.Though it's through email, I do create the greeting card that I send with the use of graphics which embodies the words I would like to express.If not, I just copy ready- made cards to some websites. Email greeting is faster especially for my friends who are far from me.But for those who are near to me, I usually give greeting card aside from the simple gift that I give.Merry Christmas!

Yeah, i have the same feeling with you. Recently, greeting cards is decreasing with the development of internet.I send e-cards,but sometimes,still send greeting cards with gifts.
Maybe one day e-cards will totally take the place of greeting cards, but greeting cards do play a role in those old days....
Merry Christmas

Sending greeting cards is just too caucasian for me. Like mistletoe.

No I wont.
I find greeting cards too impersonal. I always think that people just mass-sign it. I'd rather have a phone call, where a more meaningful conversation can be had.
On the receiving side, I always don't know what to do the cards afterwards. Do you keep them? Do you throw them in the recycle bin?

In fact, i still keep the greeting cards when i was in middle school.It was nearly 10 years ago.
At time time, friends will send greeting cards to each other even they are in the same class, they write down the words they want to say and then give the card to the person.
It is not mass-sign, it contains a lot.
Anyway, tks for the view!
