For a couple of years now my friends and I have stopped sending each other birthday cards, it's a waste of time and effort, you just accept them and in a few days throw them in the bin.
A decent card is around £2.50, instead of a card we now give a chicken in a bag from Aldi, this costs a little more but is money well spent and feeds 4 people with enough leftovers to make a soup, as they say "Winner, winner chicken dinner".

Please be aware this is not a gift and should not be given as such, it is a replacement for a card, you could write happy birthday on it if you like.
Next time you go to buy someone a card have a think....'What would Bob prefer, a card or a chicken in a bag?' What would you prefer?

Re: Birthday cards
That is a nice idea, but it is cheaper to post a card.

Good job you didn't send him a Duck, he would think you were QUACKERS.

Re: Birthday cards
Postage would be a deal breaker... but face to face chicken in a bag is awesome!
