I went to the store recently to buy a birthday card for someone, and I stood in the aisle flipping cards over and looking at the prices on the back. It’s incredible to me that greeting cards have not only passed the $5 mark — some are up to $7.99, $8.99 and higher. To save money, I do purchase a lot of greeting cards at the dollar store and at the drugstores when they’re part of cash-back deals.
I’ve blogged about these before, because I just love the idea (and the cookies!) If you’re ever in a situation where you would send someone a $5 greeting card, why not send a cookie AND a card? Cheryl’s gourmet cookies offers a $5 Cookie Greeting + Card.
For the times I may justify sending a $5 card, I can really justify sending a $5 card and a gourmet cookie! They’re great too for when you want to send a little more than just a card without a huge expense. Choose your cookie type, enter the message you want to appear on your card, and send it to your recipient. You don’t even pay postage — it’s $5, shipped!
I’ve never had anyone complain about receiving a cookie card in the mail either — in fact, I usually hear from the recipient as soon as the cookie-card arrives! (What’s not to like? Cheryl’s cookies are delicious!)

I’ve sent them to my husband AND my best friend and they are always a hit. They have ones for almost every occasion, and they really make the sender feel special. My best friend called me immediately and told me it was the sweetest thing she had gotten in a long time. Very highly recommend!!!
