    Try your local cinema,

    Or if there is a print shop near you, ask about 'offcuts' or failed print runs.

    If you're anywhere near a Fat Cat bar they usually have displays in them with free postcards.

    My local library often has them, but the cinema is the most reliable place to get them.

    I get them from vistaprint. They always have offers on, especially once you sign up with them. I get 100 free post cards every month or so, just paying a couple of quid postage. Works for me. :D

    In the reception of my local collage is a large stand full of free post cards, most are funky and meaningfull (green peace etc) might be worth looking at your local college.

    At my school library there's tons, if you ever wanted me to steal u some i can...if you can't find any!

    i think local libraries and as others have mentioned cinemas do good ones too. Some trendy bars might as well, cos i went in one before and they were doin some promotion on some crap beer that they were trying to flog.
