Christmas Cards

Dont shoot me down for forward planning, please. :-)

I normally use vistaprint for Christmas cards but thought I might look around for an alternative this year. Does anyone have a company they can recommend? I have no problem with Vistaprint, in fact the cards have been very good, but if there is a smaller company which is competitive (in Scotland would be even better) I would like to have a choice.

Thanks

    I think a lot of people on here are like me and buy their Christmas cards at the beginning of January.

    Tricky if you want them personalised for your own biz ...

    Perhaps I should have said that they are for my business.

    Vistaprint are often competitive for very small runs, less so for larger ones. Are you ordering a few tens or a few thousands?

    VistaPrint often have promotions on small quantities which makes them competitive at that scale, but they are often significantly dearer for volume.

    Other options to consider - charity cards, handwritten or with stickers inside (and the charity, not VistaPrint benefit), funkypigeon/moonpig/touchnote/etc cards - they include postage which may be a benefit, and make them financially worthwhile!

    Funky pigeon etc is a really good thought, thanks. That would mean no need to run to post office also.
