I just put the files on a cd and took them to a local printer who did everything - envelopes, invites, RSVP cards, thank you notes, etc - for like $30. I was extremely happy with it. avivoca on "Thank You Cards: Too Expensive?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-cards-too-expensive#post-757106 Thu, 02 May 2013 14:07:32 +0000 avivoca 757106@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @Modern Daisy: To save at Paper Source, I usually buy the blank cards and add my own embellishments. Or, I splurge one a nice stamp and get cheaper blank cards elsewhere. bunnylove08 on "Thank You Cards: Too Expensive?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-cards-too-expensive#post-757083 Thu, 02 May 2013 13:59:03 +0000 bunnylove08 757083@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I used vistaprint.com and it came out to about $25 for the cards. My friend designed the image and I uploaded it and they came really quickly. Vistaprint always has coupons so just google a coupon for thank you cards Bao on "Thank You Cards: Too Expensive?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-cards-too-expensive#post-757080 Thu, 02 May 2013 13:58:42 +0000 Bao 757080@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Oh goodness, that is way too much, since sadly, people usually just throw them away :/ Modern Daisy on "Thank You Cards: Too Expensive?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-cards-too-expensive#post-757075 Thu, 02 May 2013 13:57:17 +0000 Modern Daisy 757075@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @evansjamie: There is a paper source right by my apartment, but they tend to be pretty expensive. I love the designs though and I use them for special occasions!

It would all depend on the paper that they're printed on! dagret on "Thank You Cards: Too Expensive?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-cards-too-expensive#post-756997 Thu, 02 May 2013 13:44:12 +0000 dagret 756997@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I try not to pay more than 10 cents apiece for thank you cards. I've had good luck at michaels and Christmas tree shops besides target. Good luck! mediagirl on "Thank You Cards: Too Expensive?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-cards-too-expensive#post-756996 Thu, 02 May 2013 13:44:10 +0000 mediagirl 756996@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I have a favorite set of thank you cards that I use for general occasions. They are ~$1/card - 10 in the box. That to me is outrageous but they are really pretty cards. For showers or parties, I get cheap ones from any store like Walmart, Hallmark, etc. LuLu Mom on "Thank You Cards: Too Expensive?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-cards-too-expensive#post-756995 Thu, 02 May 2013 13:43:51 +0000 LuLu Mom 756995@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Walmart, party store, Hobby Lobby? I'm a Target girl so I'm not much help, but I know those places have them! avivoca on "Thank You Cards: Too Expensive?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-cards-too-expensive#post-756978 Thu, 02 May 2013 13:41:53 +0000 avivoca 756978@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I usually buy some from Paper Source or Target.

Do you think they would turn out okay?

I think it was around $40 for 25. They are personalized, though. It was over $100 to buy the matching ones (to my invites) from Minted.com. I thought that was outrageous. LindsayInNY on "Thank You Cards: Too Expensive?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-cards-too-expensive#post-756951 Thu, 02 May 2013 13:38:10 +0000 LindsayInNY 756951@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Would she make the design for you and allow you to print them yourself? That way you would just pay for the digital file and could print them anywhere (Walmart, CVS, Walgreens, Snapfish, etc.) blackbird on "Thank You Cards: Too Expensive?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-cards-too-expensive#post-756905 Thu, 02 May 2013 13:29:46 +0000 blackbird 756905@https://boards.hellobee.com/ i bought mine off tiny prints. 50 cards, 50 envelopes, 50 return stickers, for $73 Weagle on "Thank You Cards: Too Expensive?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-cards-too-expensive#post-756885 Thu, 02 May 2013 13:26:36 +0000 Weagle 756885@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Target Pepper on "Thank You Cards: Too Expensive?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-cards-too-expensive#post-756849 Thu, 02 May 2013 13:19:56 +0000 Pepper 756849@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I bought mine on Etsy for about $1 each. They matched the shower theme, so I couldn't resist! I'm having a small shower though... if I was having a lot of guests, I probably wouldn't spend so much.

I usually DIY mine, but if I do buy them either the dollar section at Michaels or the dollar store.

Modern Daisy on "Thank You Cards: Too Expensive?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-cards-too-expensive#post-756807 Thu, 02 May 2013 13:07:53 +0000 Modern Daisy 756807@https://boards.hellobee.com/ How much did you all pay for thank you cards and where did you get them? I need to order thank you cards for shower gifts since they are already starting to arrive. I wanted to have them made by the same Etsy seller who made my shower invites since I love the design and she makes them to match, but I got her pricing and now I am having second thoughts. She basically charges the same price for the TY cards as the invite, $84 for 60 flat cards or $109 for 60 folded cards. Yikes! That is too much, right? Any suggestions on where I can get more affordable but cute cards? ETA: Target is not an option since there are none near me and teh online selection is really small
