Do you keep all birthday and Christmas cards?

I hate getting rid of them but it's either that or accumulating too much 'stuff'
No.
I no more let anyone get the opportunity to go into that sort of trouble for me.

@sspec The roses aren’t ready for additional pruning, so I will let them be for now :)

I used to, but I did a purge, keeping those with a nice note, or one from someone that had passed, such as my grandparents, just to have their signature :)

Not all only the most important ones like from my grandmother who is no longer here. I still have all hers and my moms.
Yeah, I do. They're precious...esp. the ones doodled with.

I keep the ones which were given by special people.

I still have a birthday card sent by my best friend from over 7 years ago and a Christmas card from a classmate about 14 years ago.

I save a few with sentiments from friends that mean a lot to me. But I usually rip off the fronts and use them for shopping lists, lol

I keep the occasional one for particular reasons of their own, but otherwise, no.

That of family and close friends, yes. I have cards from my father’s mother, who passed away in 1968.

@bijouxbroussard that's really lovely..I have a bit of a gypsy life and have learnt to let things go, they're invaluable things though
@SW-User I don’t think I’ve received any cards except birthday cards from my parents in the last 20 years.

@bijouxbroussard oh really! I think mailing anything is becoming less and less popular
