Amazing How Many People Throw Away Christmas Cards
A lot of us still get them in the mail, but you might be amazed how many people throw away their Christmas cards! This morning on The Mike & Carla Morning Show, we heard from a woman who has had it with Christmas cards. In fact, she says to stop sending them to her!
Think about it…how many cards are you still getting for the holidays? How long do you keep them for? Are there some you keep and others you just toss right out the door? Now, both Mike O’Brian and Carla Rea admit to keeping them for a while. Especially when it comes to cards they got from their parents or family members.
They hang them up, show them off to others, but then it’s in the garbage.
How Long Do You Keep Christmas Cards Sent To You?
Unless they really are good friends with the person. That’s grants the card a stay of execution until about the middle of January. Otherwise, there’s a stack headed to the garbage can! Keep in mind, it’s nothing personal, it’s just that people are finding out that they have no place to store years and years of cards!
Hey listen, we hear ya! We’re all in the same boat. Even “digital” cards…how much space to they take up before you hit “delete” on the phone or computer? There’s just no way to save them all.
However, there are exceptions to the rule…listeners did call in and text in how they feel about it. One woman has cards from her daughter when she was in grade school. Including letters to Santa and even the Easter Bunny. Of course we get that…on the other hand, listen to why one guy will never throw away another holiday card.
Different strokes for different folks we guess. And there doesn’t seem to be a right or wrong here, just what you prefer to do. If you’d like to hear the segment in it’s entirety, hit play and enjoy!
