Free eCards


Ever wanted to send a card but didn't have time, couldn't find a stamp or you were just too cheap? Then you might want to consider sending free eCards. There are several online sources where you can find free eCards for any occasion; Birthdays, Christmas, Graduation, Weddings, National Ice Cream Day and all the other important holidays. Here are some of my personal favorites:

Egreetings.com offers free eCards for any occasion or just for fun. Most selections are in flash animation and include sound. There is no registration required and you get unlimited free eCards. Once you choose to send your card, you have the option of having the free Egreetings toolbar installed on your computer where you get instant access to the free eCards and the selection of the day. If you don't want to install the toolbar just select the "skip" prompt at the bottom of the page.

123 Greetings is a great site for free eCards and for finding out about all the lesser known holidays. For example, did you know today (June 8) was both Best Friends Day and Ice Cream Day? Well you know now! They offer an upcoming events feature on their homepage that lists all kinds of holidays and occasions along with links to free eCards you can send. You can even subscribe to the upcoming events RSS feed.

Care2 eCards makes a donation to an environmental nonprofit to save a square foot of rain forest for every free eCard sent. How cool is that? They offer several unique free eCards to choose from. You can personalize the cards and send them to multiple email addresses.

eCardica.com offers a selection of free mostly humorous eCards. The majority are flash animation but a few are available in "postcard" format for those that don't have flash capabilities. You can also personalize your greeting and upload photos, audio or video files that can be sent along with your eCard.

Hipstercards.com is great for finding unusual free eCards to send. They also offer some fun options for free email invitations. I love the Retro and Vintage selections but was a little freaked out over the Strange Clowns category. From what I saw, all of the eCards are basic images without animation or audio options. The cards are easy to send and don't require any registration.

Yahoo! Greetings with American Greetings has several free eCards to choose from. You can personalize your message, add a photo and send your selected eCard to multiple email addresses. Registration is not required.

So no more excuses, now you can stay in touch with friends and family with these free eCards. Get busy - Cheap Cindy
