I cut off the front and use it as a postcard (I enter a lot of competitions). I have sometimes used them to make cards, but you have to be careful that they don't end up looking really amateur.0

I cut off the front of the and like Hermia use them as postcards and also use them as book marks, you could also write your shopping list on them too.£2.00 Coin Savers Club - £72.00 :j :j

I use some of mine to make gift tags. I use serrated (spelling?) scissors as it gives a more attractive edge and hides the fact that some are not cut perfectly straight. I then punch a whole in one end and use a fine ribbon to attach to a gift bag.0

Prudent, I do that with Christmas cards too. I save ribbon from any chocloates or any gifts I get to attach with. I don't like to reuse gift bags though, any ideas?0

You could always see if there is a craft group at a local community centre where they could possibly use them?
Or if you have children, cut them up & use them for a cardmaking session during the school holidays?The bigger the bargain, the better I feel.
I should mention that there's only one of me, don't confuse me with others of the same name.0
