Hi Cat,
Check out Vistaprint. We had lovely postcards made. Design one and keep it in your basket. Every day they send you an offer "order today and get 10% off" kinda thing until eventually (about a week later) they offer you them for free as long as you pay the postage. Ours were £4.22 for 100.

Hope everyone is well.....Today is Sabbath for me so not a lot gets done apart from the fact that I try and make it a NSD (cos that's breaking the Sabbath)
