Are you looking for a cheap (okay, free) alternative to store-bought holiday cards this year? You can select and mail e-cards from the comfort of your home, and save a bundle while you’re at it.
When you’re shopping for free e-cards online, look to American Greetings at www.americangreetings.com for a great selection of e-cards for every imaginable holiday occasion.
One of the things I really liked about American Greetings’s e-card site is that they list every upcoming holiday all the way into the next year. So if you want to get ready for Grandparent’s Day 2008, you can check on the date now, while you’re online looking at e-cards.
The basic service at American Greetings online is free. American Greeting also has a paid member service, which allows you access to even more e-cards. They offer a free first month of the member service, in case you want to try it out without spending anything. But the free service offers plenty of great e-cards, so be sure to check those out first.
American Greetings’s free online e-card site displays a “top featured” list of some of the most popular e-cards each day. That’s a very handy feature for people who haven’t sent e-cards before, or who just have trouble narrowing down their choices when there are so many great e-cards to choose from. Just like a brick-and-mortar card store, it’s very easy to get caught up reading every available e-card. Having a list of the top e-cards is a nice bit of direction for those of us that are easily distracted.
The free e-cards at American Greets are also sorted by characters and by themes. There are e-cards with Disney characters, with the Looney Tunes characters, and even with characters from all your favorite Nickelodeon television programs, as well as e-cards featuring themes, such as pets, friendship, and various religious content.
American Greetings’s free online e-card site has a wide variety of cards, ranging from the funny to the serious. You even have the option to add your own photos to an e-card, or add an audio recording, to personalize your e-card.
Many of the e-cards from American Greetings have sounds included. Selected background music enhances the experience by playing automatically each time the e-card is viewed.
You can add your own personal message to each American Greetings e-card. I was impressed to see that the message space on these e-cards is unlimited. Other sites restrict you to a certain number of characters, and it’s hard sometimes to say everything you want to in a very small message space.
The layout of the American Greetings e-card site is intuitive and very easy to use. Simply click on the e-card you’re considering, and then click through to select any add-ons, and enter your recipient’s name and your message text. You can even preview the e-cards and see exactly how they will appear to the person you’re sending them to.
Head over to American Greetings online today and send someone one of these great free e-cards!
