Gone are the days when sending a card required purchasing it, writing it, finding out the recipient’s postal address, buying a stamp and actually posting it in the postbox. Today, you’ll be pleased to know that there’s a new way to say ‘Thank you’ (or whatever else you want to say) – say it with e-cards!
Childhood trauma
Remember how delighted you were to receive gifts from all your relatives for Christmases and birthdays as a child? Do you also remember being made to painstakingly write thank you cards to each and every relative (even the ones who sent you terrible presents)? Nowadays, kids are so lucky! With online thank you ecards, it’s never been easier to thank people for gifts or anything else you want to say thank you for. It just takes a few clicks and your ecard will be winging its way to the recipient’s email address faster than the blink of an eye.
Time and place
There’s nothing wrong with traditional thank you cards; it’s just that they have a time and a place. If you’re rushed off your feet, the last thing you want to do is spend time hunting for a stamp and postal address – the card is likely to lie on the mantelpiece for months or worse, become a folded, wrinkled mess at the bottom of your handbag after you forget to post it at the postbox. E-greetings are a thoroughly modern way to send greeting cards and don’t forget they’re environmentally friendly too! There’s no paper involved and no cards left to take down after the celebration is over. Just a nice, tidy email that can be filed away or archived.
It’s important to say thank you not only for presents you’ve received, but to anyone who has helped you out or been there for you. Online thank you ecards make this process a whole lot quicker and easier, and provided you know the individual’s email address, can be sent and received in a matter of minutes, making them a more convenient and immediate way to get your message across! If you haven’t sent online ecards before, you’ll find sites offering free ecards which won’t cost you a penny, so there’s no excuse for even the most impoverished person to miss a special occasion!

You’ll even find a wide range of gifts available, for occasions from Mother’s Day to Valentine’s Day; there’s something for everyone.
