Can I really just use an index card? Label their name, my name and a stamp as usual?

isnt a recipe card holder just an envelope? so i have to take the time to fill out a card with my name on it, address an envelope and waste 44 cents just to receive another envelope...wow. americans never fail to amaze me.

I've gotten free recipe holders in the past ... one is a binder w/dividers and another is a tin box with dividers. Thanks for the offer.

No? When I think of recipe holders, I think of boxes or books. I don't know what this one is specifically but I doubt it's going to be a plain white business envelope as you seem to think it will be - I've never heard of a recipe 'envelope' before.

And no one is making you fill out a card to do anything - if you fail to see the value in it, just don't do it. Why complain about it? In the time it took you to bitch about it, you could have filled out a card and put a stamp on it... but I guess your post was a more productive use of your time. Oh and since you can send a postcard it's actually $.28 you'll be wasting, not $.44.

is there a picture of how these look? Never heard of them before.

thanks

Thanks.

The wonderful part about that is you just spent your quality time nagging at me about how im wasting mine...oxymoron? I think so. And the .44 cents I was referring to was the cost of a stamp. LoL and I wasnt really "bitching" as you put it, just pointing out the rediculously witty american country that makes idiotic stuff and makes you think you need it..for those purchasing them I mean, no harm in getting them for free I suppose. So, I guess thanks for being a little sissy poo and venting on my vent. Im guessing the "middle child" syndrome has something to do with you and yours...just a guess...

Thanks!

The price of a postcard stamp, what I was referring to, is $.28. I said that in case other people reading this thread saw your post and thought they had to use a letter and/or a $.44 stamp when, if they use a postcard [as the offer says you can], they don't have to spend the extra money/envelope/etc; as your original post would lead them to believe they have to do.

I'm not going to bother replying to the rest of that since what you said doesn't even make sense/apply to what I was saying so if you want to bicker some more, just PM me and leave it out of the thread. But nope, not a middle child.
