    Afraid its lack of money on my part
    I really had fun the time I participated, but being in a different country to most of the recipients means its unaffordable for me again this year.

    I still have all the cards I recieved in the past though

    Yeah, I always feel bad for the non-US people, since most if not all of the cards they have to send are international

      Yes, every letter I send internationally cost around $3, a little more for priority mail, a little less for B-class mail.
      Nevertheless I have signed up and if it doesn't get over a 100 dollars I'll play this year.

        I skipped one year due to tight finances and my Mom fussed at me over that.

        We always seem to make a way to get stuff done, and the Christmas Card List is something I've always looked forward to doing (and she and my brother like seeing all the cards come in, particularly the overseas ones) so every year since that one I ALWAYS join in, regardless. It's tradition for me and something I look forward to.

        If you can do this, great. But if for some reason someone can't, I completely understand and empathize.

                      I used my parents' address a few years ago when I was going to be moving in November. They just loved that.

                            I was waiting to make sure that the list wouldn't get too big for me to participate. I think I can manage the current size. Hopefully it won't get too much bigger before Saturday and I won't have to opt out.

                                Just a side note for those of us in the US -- the post office has international "Forever" first-class stamps these days. About two bucks, as I recall. This may help with planning/budgeting.
