While you're on the site, browse the amazing selection of unique gifts. They've got something for just about every occasion. Tip: all over the web site it says orders ship in 1-2 days, which refers to when your items are packaged and set for standard delivery. For whatever reason, the first time I ordered from the site I had it in my head that I would receive the package in 1-2 days. I did not receive my package on time and had to quickly find a replacement gift.

It's only October, but the holiday season will be here before we know it. Ordering your greeting cards now may save you money, time and stress later. Happy shopping!
