So what was your ratio this year?

We sent 112
We have received 17 (thus far, but we are in Hong Kong this Christmas so things are a bit delayed).

I haven't sent a card in a few years. I always have the best intentions though....

Got a few in the end, mostly from the wifes family.

Even got one from my sister...which is typical...first year I don't send her one as she's moved and she finally sends me a card

We sent out 27 or so though.

Received 15.

Most annoying thing I think about the extended family, you send a card to the aunts and cards to their kids, them being married and in their 30's and all that...yet all you get is a family card back from the aunt from the whole gang.

We got somewhat fewer than we sent, although I didn't actually count them.

I'd be quite happy to stop doing it but thought others liked to exchange.

None sent. A few received that were sent out by my mum from home, but they were the good kind - the ones with money in them

MsElui

i have a bag of cards here by my foot - that i fully intended to send- but alas didnt quite get to. We got about 20 or so - and the only ones i sent per se were ones that were required to hold another item like a gift card for teacher etc.

Squirrel

Probably sent about 25 and got about 15, but there are some I always send to people that I don't expect one back. Like people that run clubs and animal rescues that I'm a member/supporter/adopter of. If you run a club with many members I don't think you could be expected to send every member a card and with the rescues I'd frankly rather them spend the money on the animals.

One surprise I got from an American girl I know from another website who lived in the UK with her Brit husband. Received a card (with a pic of Santa surfing on the front) from Oz where they have now moved!

I think I'd faint if we ever got a card from the MIL that said to Son & Daughter-in-Law!
