I just saw on TV that Moonpig is now operating in the US..... I already placed my first order. The shipping charge is the cost of a 1st class stamp so you know you are not being over charged on shipping... They are also running a bogo promotion right now. It is nice to have other options than hallmark and American greetings.

I just found out a first class stamp is about 60p now/50p second! I took a cheque with me to post in UK, to save on the dollar postage from here. Did not really help, except it will get there in 2 days instead of 2 weeks

I started using them this year because I'm horrible at getting cards out two weeks ahead of time. This year my mother in law actually got a Mother's Day card in March and on time!

It's been here about 3 years!
I've always found them excellent. They have just started doing a "rude card" section as well. Only slightly rude jokes, but still better than many cards.

Ouch... They are operating in the US so if you mail one to someone here it is only 44 cents.

Really? Last time I looked, after receiving for. From my sister, the only way to do it was to have it mailed from the UK. I just saw it advertised on tv for the first time yesterday.

That's what I thought. Been sending my daughter cards from Texas to California for long time.

Some of the rude ones are very funny

Thanks for this thread. I hadn't got my finger out and sorted out cards for Fathers Day. Just used them for the first time on your recommendations. Cards will now arrive on Friday Will probably use them all the time now, they seem to have a good selection, and not all lovey dovey like you get in the actual card shops here.

I've always used them wherever I've been in the World. Whenever I use my debit card here it gets declined though. As a result I have to use my wifes credit card to put credit on which works out well as I get extra credit for free

I ordered Father's Day cards and put pictures of our girls on there.... You won't find that in the hallmark store

That is what I love about them, you can personalise them and it is so easy
