Bunniq Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 Since we have decided to cut back on Christmas gift giving this year, we have decided to send more Christmas Cards than usual. I was at the post office a few weeks back, and the clerk told me that Christmas Theme stamps should be coming out soon. For the few cards we sent last year we used a plain stamp, but this year I am debating if I should purchase Christmas Theme stamps or not. I decided to make a poll to see what others usual do.

laffnatu Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 I'm really bad at buying Christmas cards but I never get around to sending them out. If I do send them out, I usually get the Christmas theme ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Novac Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 Don't forget the holiday postmarks, too. You can send all your Christmas mail in a large envelope to post offices in participating towns. They'll open your envelope and postmark all your (stamped) mail there. You might want to check around in early December for participating post offices this year as well as specific instructions on how to get your cards postmarked. Previously, you could get postmarks from:North Pole, AK & NYChristmas, MISnowflake, AZBethlehem, PA (and other states)Santa, IDSanta Claus, INEvergreen, AL (and other states)Shepherd, MI (and other states)Snow, OKSnow Shoe, PAChestnut, ILJoy, ILSurprise, NYPartridge, KS & KYI didn't see any recent articles on USPS's site, but here are a couple from 2001 and 2002.

Cecilliadb Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 I had a traditional brass seal made with my initials. I am gonna use my gold wax to seal the envelopes this year instead of the pretty embossed stickers I usually get. I thought it would be a little different and fun :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
