One thing I enjoy is giving trees when I can. That's when aside from age and gender and perhaps even a small wishlist item, a card can be pulled and wrapped and returned with just that tag of paper.
I don't fully monitor cards, per se, but may cut back after enough time passes, but for the most part it's mutual with my list that I exchange with.

Thanks for this. I am having a difficult holiday season this year financially and otherwise so I think it would be okay for me to pull back. Other years if I am financially secure I will be generous and won't give it a thought. I can tell I am extra sensitive this year. I think I just need to apply self-care. Thanks, again.
