Seems to be in the decline this year. I have to admit I have only got a few special cards for family this year, even though half of them don't bother lol
Also painted a few simple water colour ones for special people on my life.
Are you sending any this year? Are you giving to charity instead?

Cut right back, but I don’t do the whole “I’m not sending cards I’m donating to charity” thing as I donate to charity regularly anyway, and tend not to do a special “Christmas” one off.
I reckon anyone that uses the “I’m donating” line should post the receipt online to prove they have .. not that I’m a cynic or owt   |

I've not done it for years! Cards are pointless, even more so if you are going to see the people during/leading up to Christmas.
Makes a little more sense if you won't, but these days communication as a whole is just easier than it was. Send a mass text or something. And if you see/speak to them that infrequently, then is there really any thought behind it at all or is it just a formality? |

I don't send many these days but do some and also recieve some. Elderly people who like to get and still give cards. Few neighbours also do them so I give them a card too. Not everybody likes just a text or even an ecard and certainly some elderly people don't have electronic devices. Not a big deal if it makes someone happy. |

Yes, donating to charity sounds better than can't honestly be bothered |
