Zimmeh I haven't received any card in an envelope yet, however today I did get that beautiful over sized lighthouse postcard! So very pretty! Thanks

You are welcome! For three days after Hurricane Matthew, the Ponce de Leon lighthouse was without power. I got called into work so I will have them out by Thursday or Friday.

If they have books, postcards, and greeting cards it'd be downright dangerous for me and my wallet as well!

Plus electronic gadgets, stuffed animals, children's toys and fun kitschy type stuff. Add to that, I was the customer service desk manager and had the power to order any book I wanted for myself, employees or customers.

Perhaps it's a blessing in disguise then, that they are a Southeastern based company!

I recall 1/2 Price Books sells postcards too. I remember the stores in San Antonio did.

Ok, funny story..

After I moved here, I started noticing what I passed on the way to work. The restaurants, the grocery stores, my bank, and various places I would go too. I noticed I passed a 1/2 Book Store. Ok, file that for later when I want to sell books and stuff.

Well, now I need postcards. One day after work, I sat in my car, and googled the directions. I wasn't quite sure of the exit of the freeway, or was it off the access road? Texas, has one way access roads that run alongside of the highways. ( just doesn't make sense, I tell you) Couldn't find it, but I know it's over there~~~~>

So I head on over to find some goodies. Drove into the parking lot. Got out, walked to the sidewalk out side of the store. Hmm, a huge roll of bubble wrap, and a pile of boxes. I was disappointed to say the least. They must have moved and didn't take the sign down. , ...ok so since then, I've gone to the local antique stores to find postcards.

Oh, let say, about two weeks later, on my way to work. I saw that sign again. But wait..there is no "k".

That there "k" is most definitely and "X". 1/2 Price Boxes!

I only saw what I wanted to see. So...still on the prowl for postcards. I'm going out of state...which means I have to drive across the huge state of Texas. I'm postcard stopping along the way!!your in for a treat...Buckees post card..lol

Lyte · 10-20-2016, 06:39 PM

Homoe... thanks for the super cards and trivia!! Very cool!

Zimmeh · 10-20-2016, 07:06 PM

I had five stamps available

I have to make a trip to the post office this weekend and I will be sending out the additional cards.

Clay, thank you for the very artsy and creative Halloween card! It was definitely a treat finding it in my mailbox

Gemme · 11-01-2016, 05:32 AM

Thank you, Besame and Georgia, for the lovely postcards. Besame, yours arrived right on schedule on Halloween!

GeorgiaMa'am · 11-01-2016, 07:22 PM

homoe, Thank you for the beautiful hand-decorated card, and also the cards from Chicago. They brought back some fond memories. I've been to Chicago several times, and it's one of my favorite places. My idea of a fun vacation is to stay at the Palmer House and go to the Lyric Opera. I know, I'm a nerd. Chicago has many other things I enjoy as well. Thanks for reminding me!

Zimmeh · 11-01-2016, 10:30 PM

Besame, Georgia Ma'am and Homoe, thank you for the cards!

Georgia, I will be making that hamburger soup on Thursday in my CrockPot. Thank you for the recipe!

Besame, I loved the homemade card

Homoe, You are making me miss living in Seattle.

Once I get paid again on the 14th, I will be sending out more cards.

Thank you for making my day brighter.
