My husband and I don't want our cards to be burried under hundreds of cards during the peak seaon around mid December. However, I am concerned now might be a bit too early. What do you think? Thanks.

I like to get mine done early, too. I've only got about another box to fill out!! However, I worry about getting them there TOO early.
I send mine out the day after Thanksgiving.

I think it is kind of early. It takes 2-3 days for cards to be delivered. I would send them right after Thanksgiving that way you'll still make it before the mid December.

Agreed. After Thanksgiving. It's all too early now as it is in the malls and the commercials. Just after Thanksgiving will be sure they arrive, be certain that not all of the other cards have arrived yet, and still not seem out of place. I am waiting to mail mine until then as well.

I don't think it's too early to get STARTED,
I do all my cards and get them ready to go by the 2nd week of Nov. then mail them all out in one huge batch the Monday after Thanksgiving. There are too many other things happening once December hits, we get the cards out 1st thing!
I say go for the Monday after Thanksgiving!

Yours will be buried if you mail them out this early..... I know that we always enjoy getting that first Christmas card from our cousin usually the day after Thanksgiving. I think he and his wife must have them all ready to mail out the day before Thanksgiving. His is the first and the best, as Thanksgiving is over and we are then ready for Christmas, and his card brings that warm Christmas spirit we are looking for after Thanksgiving. So if you don't want your card buried, but want it to be remembered as special, try to have it be delivered Thanksgiving weekend. Happy Holidays.

Only if your local postal service is truly snail mail. I think anyone getting a Christmas card in early November would probably be annoyed with you, so you're probably better off waiting until December.

Usually send mine out a few days after thanksgiving then they arrive early enough not to be piled under a stack of them

It's acceptable to start sending them the day after Thanksgiving. It's way to early right now.

Its too early. Instead of being burried, they won't be around at Christmas. People will get them ahead of the season and they will either get mis-placed or tossed. Wait until at least December 1st.

I think you should send it beginning of dec. However, i dont believe in manually handwriting cards anymore. I have been using a system my friend introduced me to a year ago to do all my card sending. I actually already did my holiday cards and they will get sent out on Dec 3rd automatically for me. (the system allows me to purchase my own handwritten font and post date cards and send them to as many people as i want - with one click of a button) Here is her website. Check it out it may save you time and money and also hand cramps!
