How many cards?

I sent out 45. And I'm missing a ton of cards back from people still. Very sad year...

Re: How many cards?

Give people some more time. Mine were New Years cards last year. 2 kids overwhelm me.

We sent about 45 and got maybe 18 but I'd say 25 of ours go to older relatives or people with no kids and I don't expect cards back. I never sent until kids.

OMG I ordered 175 and I sent out about 160. I use the rest for teacher/bus driver/garbage man tips etc. Clearly I need to trim the list but we get a ton of cards too!

How many cards?

We combined with birth announcements this year-ordered 75, and the company ended up sending 12 extras because of misprints. Out of the 87 I have 5 left, but I like to keep 2 for myself.

We've only received 23 so far..last year we got about 40 though

How many cards?

These year I sent out 30 cards and only because my parents were nagging me to death to send them out. I only did close family.

I am indifferent to cards. Most of the people are on Facebook and see all my DD's pictures all the time and I call everyone I sent out cards too either on xmas eve or xmas to wish them a happy holiday. I see no need for a card but I was out nagged!! lol.

OMG ME TOO!!! I was SOOOO pissed! Mine were supposed to come an entire week ago and just came yesterday night! And, I paid rush two day shipping of $30 to boot. I called SO MANY TIMES. The customer service was completely incompetent! I have ordered from them for years but will NEVER order from tinyprints again!

Ordered 70 and all are accounted for - next year I will order more!

Is that the norm? Only send to those you receive from?

I would only cut someone if I knew that they sent out holiday cards and did not send one to us. If they don't send out cards then I typically keep them. I did cut a lot of people like my inlaws friends because they are Jewish and I don't think that they really care about receiving my Christmas card!

I send them to friends and family. I do have a fairly large extended family. But I also have a lot of friends after living in the same town for 11 years and having three kids who I have made numerous friends thru.

I ordered 75 and mailed 60. The rest I use for teacher gifts, bus drivers and any extra that I have to send out if someone sends to me that I didn't originally send to. And I always save one or two for myself as ankeepsake.
