Does anyone send or recieve post cards anymore?

Hi macdingolinger I always tend to send postcards when I am away on holiday to family and friends. I think it is much more personal to send a card than an email. When one receives a postcard, it is always nice to know that someone was thinking of you

I sent some just the other day to my family. I live on the west coast and they live in the South. Since I can't come home as much as I would like, I send postcards when I go someplace cool or cards for special occasions.

The last time I received a postcard was ages ago. It was from a brother of mine who was overseas on a holiday. Now when my relatives travel overseas, they don't write postcards anymore, maybe an occasional email to tell me what's happening on their holiday. In this internet age where e-cards are more popular, I still get some physical cards (not postcards) sent through the post like New Year's card, birthday card and Christmas card. They are definitely not as many as previously before the days of the internet.

I wish someone will send me a postcard. Anyway I think people do send postcards. My sister's friend went to florida for a trip and she sent my sister a postcard. That was so nice of her. Occassionally I don't think so. I only think people will send it through trips. I like things that are handwritten. it is more meaningful that way.

Oh, i am a postal worker and yet i don't collect postcards! Shame on me! But i have some of those that i bought from my own stamp accountabilities and i am just eager to send to you after reading this discussion. Can i? I mean i would appreciate it very much if you accept my friend request then if you could send me your P.O. Box address through private message? That would be contributing a little on my part to my post office's revenue generating activities.

It would be great to send and receive postcards again. I havent seen one, let alone receive one, in ages! With the coming of emails, I suppose postal letters have become passe. Egreetings have replaced greeting cards and email updates/IM offline messages have become the norm for communicating. However, it does sound like a great idea, provided many ppl show interest in it

When we go places we but them to keep for ourselves.I homeschool my daughter and I have hears of a postcard trading group.And I have asked how to get in touch with someone from it.But,I have not heard anything yet.

I like to collect post cards. I also like to send post cards to my boyrfriend, it makes him happy when ever he receives a post card from me. Sending post cards are cheap as it only cost me PHP13 to Belgium, sending greeting cards is expensive as the postal fee is PHP110 (not including the price of the greeting card yet).

When I visited Europe I did send some postcards back home to the states..the postcards there were so beautiful that I bought some and actually have them framed for pictures in my dining room.....these were from The Netherlands.

I have sent and received postcards. I like to send them and to receive them. They are something that I would find to be useful and they help me remember my travels from place to place. I do enjoy postcards and think that giving and recivng thme are good. It is always fun to remember where you have been and where you are going to go.

Well, I haven't sent one in awhile, but I still get them from time to time. I'm really never gone long enough to want to send somebody a post-card. My mom often buys post cards because she likes the pictures on the back and wants to put them in her photo albums. Are postcard stamps really cheaper? I'd never heard that. Maybe I should send postcards out more often.

Hi,macdingolinger A nice topic.We all know that nowadays people seldom send post cards to friends or family members.However,I still send post cards to these I cared when it is a holiday,I think this shows that I care about them.I recieve post card too,my family members and some good friends will send me a post card when it is a special day. Have a nice day!

I enjoy postcards as well. Not only are they helpful for communicating to folks you know, you can also go join up at http://www.postcrossing.com and sign up to send and receive postcards to and from people all over the world. It has been awhile since I have been able to participate, but I have really enjoyed getting random postcards from all sorts of places. When you send one, you get one...and I believe to start out you can send around 5 at a time. When you receive one back, you register it on the site, and that opens the sender up to have their address thrown back into the pool for someone else to send to. It's a neat idea, and a lot of fun. Just thought I would throw that in. :)

i never use again post cards, maybe 2 year agoo my last post
