Default Christmas Cards

Hi, Can you get Christmas cards in packs here? We saw some in Costco but they were marked "English Christmas cards", funny as the ones in Costco Milton Keynes last year looked the same and said "American"???

Have not seen any others yet as it seems to be all things pumpkin right now!

Yes, in packs and in boxes.

I'd try the Bay, they usually have a lot of Christmas crap.

English, American and Canadian Christmas cards are all very similar - generally have a snowy scene, Christmas tree etc. Australian Christmas cards, on the other hand, might be somewhat different (perhaps a beach and a barbeque?)

You can buy the cards in supermarkets, corner stores, Zellers, Bay, Sears and even Canadian Tire along with many other places that see Christmas crap.

Nothing, it's just that they say made in the UK, I wanted something North American, preferably Canadian to send back to peeps in the UK, what's wrong with that, otherwise I would have brought a load of cheap Asda cards with us

I believe that most of the cards for sale were probably made in the Far East, probably China.

And be aware that most of the cards here actually say "Happy Holidays" - hard to find a mention of actual "Christmas"

You could go to Dollarama and buy ones that say Happy Holidays/Christmas from Canada or acroos the miles - dollar each. OR you could pay far more and get into scrapbooking and cardmaking and make your own ones

Just don't go buying ones that have the 'Extra postage required' in the corner of the envelope where the stamp goes, you'll end up paying enough in postage to feed a small country!
