I'm real old school. I love snail mail. The days of good ol' penmanship and stamp licking are long gone for some... But for me, since our families live all over the World and we have friends spread out over the 50 states - you can still find me in the Hallmark aisle. My mom definitely passed down the love of sending cards to me. I remember being 11 years old and her carefully picking out cards for our family. We'd get home and she'd settle in at the kitchen table with a good pen and her address book. She would convince my little brother to lick envelopes and I got to put on the stamp. I didn't think much of it then, it was just how it was but looking back now, it is such a time honored tradition for our families. Greeting cards in general have come a long way - new wonderful designs, modern humor and even in Spanish - I can spend a good hour just taking them all in and ultimately deciding... Call it a guilty pleasure, I call it fun times! I recently heard about the Hallmark Card Rewards program and it's perfect for me - for every 5 cards purchased, I'll earn 1 reward and you can too!
Rewards include gift cards and discounts from partners like Nike, Starbucks and Applebee's - tell me that doesn't rock! It's even easier because you get rewarded from everywhere you can buy cards - in over 30,000 stores across the U.S. And if that ain't easy enough, there's an app for that! It's available on both Android and iPhone - just scan the barcode on the back of your purchased cards and register your rewards for your account.
Do you still believe in snail mail? Do you prefer sending or receiving?
Rewards are only for individual cards and not boxed greetings.
