I'm still sending out cards, but each year it seems like it is less than the year before. ... more a habit, and less enjoyment I guess.
 
My wife still does the family letter and pictures of the children and Grandchildren thing. I told her that it's way too much with the way things are done today, but she refuses to capitulate and wants to keep on keeping on.
 
I hated Christmas cards..especially at work...you receive cards from people you hardly know..It's a waste of trees!!!

I used to call it..''The Christmas Card Machine!!''

I would prefer ALL cards to be e-cards as they are chucked out as soon as Christmas is over, what a waste of trees. I have downsized the number of cards I send drastically. What is the point of sending to people you are never likely to ever see again?
 
I still mail out a few Christmas cards and I like both scenic and religious.
I send emails to a few folks but not everyone has a computer, believe it or not.
 
I haven't sent anything but e-cards for years, but I always admire others that go to the work of getting a card(s)putting in a little note, and mailing them. Like the gal does on that movie "The Christmas Card". Maybe I'll get off my butt and at least start doing that for our military.
 
I stopped sending Christmas cards in 2000 due to my husband's illness. There was just no time. By the time things were somewhat normal three years had passed, and I just opted to not resume sending them. My husband sends them. His selections are pretty broad-based. I don't think he has ever met a card of any kind he didn't like. Much more sentimental than me.
 
I have always LOVED sending and receiving Christmas cards... I always try to include a letter and love to get an old fashioned honest to gosh REAL letter in them... I don't like just getting a 'signed' card...

I used to include a round robin newsletter, but can't be bothered these days, especially as I have no interest in reading those I receive from other people. I hope the number of paper cards we receive dwindles to nothing as they are such a waste, and I must admit apart from glancing at the signature I don't bother to look at the picture on the front.

I love this Bettyann;) even if we don't get something in return, it feels good to have done something that might really brighten someone's day, and their mantle. I used to love to see the cards all lined up, or pinned up back in the day:)

I still send cards through the post, mainly the same number that I have always sent, except for the people who have sadly passed away of course.I prefer scenic cards.It is getting expensive [mainly the stamps not the cards] but as I love to get Christmas cards myself, and also because some of the people I send to are older [than me] and they like to get cards, and often don't have a computer anyway.We leave those from our family out on display and after looking at and reading any messages, put all the other cards in a big dish in the hall.I don't put letters in them, but just a few remarks, hoping that they have a happy Christmas.
