            No I dont any more since having little spare money Id rather have an extra £2 on the present rather than a cardWeekly Spend Challenge £200

            No - never have. Infact, I don't buy/give christmas cards at all - I personally don't see the point!0

            Yes, always have. I feel they're more important than a gift (even though I do both
 )                        "If you're good at something, never do it for free..."0 - 
            I never have bought a Christmas card for the OH. Never discussed it but we only exchange cards on our respective birthdays0

            Have done for over thirty years but past few years we stopped it, you buy a card as nice as some can be and a good card can cost up to £5. Once read it sits on a shelf and taken down in the New Year. In fact we have stopped buying cards you can always add little notes to pack lunches through out the year rather than a greetings card twice a year.Everything has its beauty but not everyone sees it.0

            No - but on more than one occasion I' ve had to go out at the last minute and buy him one because he's got me one. Will think about making one this year!Me, OH, grown DS, (other DS left home) and Mum (coming up 80!). Considering foster parenting. Hints and tips on saving £ always well received. Xx

            Yes, and id be gutted if i didnt get a card! I love to keep them somewhere safe, my oh writes the most loveliest things in them. Always cheer me up

            Always have and always will.
We keep every card we send to each other, in fact the 2 drawers on my side under our bed is full of cards from people over the years, going right back to my first ever Christmas card from my Nanny and Grandad back in 1975!Tank fly boss walk jam nitty gritty...0
