Recently, I decided that if a standard greeting card is going to cost $5.00 or more in a grocery store, at least I'm going to find something handmade and unique. Look no further than Etsy.
Just search "handmade greeting cards" to find over 70,000 listings. You can find intricate hand cut cards, hand drawn illustrations, funny cards and photo cards. You can buy them individually or in sets and spend much less than you would at the drug or grocery store. Here's a few I found (click on the link below the picture to visit that Etsy store):
Now if you're like me, about now you are saying - who buys greeting cards in advance?? I did, but as a set of general cards. You can really save money this way too. I bought this set of 8 cards of my choice for $20. Even with the shipping costs added in that is less than $4 a card.
I don't even have to make a stop on the way to my next party! As an extra bonus, I don't have to worry about whether the graduate or birthday card recipient will be getting a duplicate card from another guest!
Have a few minutes? Shop Etsy for a huge selection of unique greeting cards. Buy from the comfort of your living room 24 hours a day for delivery to your door! Support small businesses!
