update:

I don't have any more cards to send out so as of now if you didn't reply and send me your address, I personally am out of the game. If however, anyone else wants to participate, maybe pm each other and set up the details? AND MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

 

 

please bump even if you aren't interested!!! 

 

I wanted to see if anyone wanted to exchange christmas cards/holiday cards and small envolope sized gifts/goodies (like 5 dollar gift cards to dollar store, stickers, small candies, pictures etc...lets get creative!) with me?

If you are interested, post here and send me your address in a pm.

I am hoping to get my holiday cards out around the 1st.

I would love to exchange with anyone!

Please bump even if you aren't interested!

Nice idea... but honestly I don't think a lot of people will be able to afford to send so many people $5 cards. Unless I'm just reading wrong!

Oh, it doesn't have to be just gift cards. Thats not the idea at all. Just small things that fit in the envolope with the card like stickers or something, ya know? I was just throwing out ideas. I would love more ideas :)

Try being a single mother on unemployment having to take care of two children.... $5 adds up.... especially if you are buying $5 gift cards for 20-50 people!!! Think about it!!! and honestly I rather spend $5 on my kids and get them cards or hotwheels.... I'm not against buying things for others... my kids just come first!

Well geez, don't participate then. I am not forcing anyone or trying to make anyone feel bad, It was just a nice idea. I don't have anyone to exchange cards with and I was hoping I could make a few pen pals in the process. Believe me, we are broke. I can't afford much either. I have cards from last year that I want to send to someone. I was gonna make a trip to the dollar tree and get some small goodies to send with the cards. No big deal. Sorry if the post made you feel bad.

Believe me, I understand poverty. I have been homeless before and we are very broke. DH works at wendys and I am disabled. We certinally are not rich by any means.
