Greetings Cards

Options
Hi

Sorry if this has been posted somewhere else before. I've tried searching under 'greetings cards' and 'birthday cards'.

Where does anyone buy their cards from? We used to get them from a friend who sold them from home (90p each if you buy 10 or more) but she's going to stop doing it. I'm loathed to pay clinton cards prices.

For short-term convience I guess I'm looking at buying on-line.

Any help would appreciated.

Regards

Normski

    I find Card Factory and Card Warehouse shops to be a lot cheaper than Clintons. Cards start from around 29p, and they sometimes have offers on like 4 for £1.

    I'm loathed to pay lots for a card too, when you consider they stand on the mantlepiece for a few days, then get chucked out!
    Here I go again on my own....

    Before your friend packs up altogether -why not buy a couple of years supply from her . It is not as if they have a sell buy date or take up much room !

  • My local Pound shop sells cards at 4 for £1, Wilkinsons have a cheaper range at about 59p a card and at the moment Birthday's are selling 5 for £1. Always worth looking in the sales for blank cards which can be used for any occassion too.

    I'm guessing your friend sold Phoenix cards? If you want a catalogue PM me and let me know!
  • I also buy from the Card Warehouse shops, lovely cards for a fraction of the price.

    ASDA and TESCO do cheap cards. Around 45p each. They are really nice too.
    My friend sells Phoenix cards....why don't you talk to your friend who stopped doing it and see if you can take over? Nice little earner for you, and you'll always have an endless supply of cards!

    The works have nice cards for 2 for a pound or less nice ones 4 for a pound. Also worth considering for posh cards is thebookpeople.com who have a card package. not bought one yet, but keep thinking i might to push an order over the £25 free delivery mark. there's often free delvery codes in the vouchers thread.
    oh yeah, and home bargins have some too
