I used to send my holiday cards out the day after Thanksgiving, every year, without fail. I really enjoyed the tradition. And of course I loved receiving cards during the holidays. The biggest thing that stops me from the holiday card tradition is the cost...the cards are expensive and postage is expensive. I'm not being a tight-wad, I just quite literally don't have the money to spend. And, younger folks don't seem to value greeting cards much...kind of sad to send a card that will end up buried in stuff on someone's coffee table.

All that said, it's a lovely gesture, to send a card.
