    Post Cheap packs of postcards

    Has anyone seen any particularly good deals online for packs of postcards? I'm contemplating buying a batch lot of postcards for entering postal competitions as I currently only have I think 2 left. I've heard that people have much lower chances of winning via blank postcards, though I could get a pack of 100 for under £5 so its tempting but I have heard from multiple people that they win next to nothing via entries sent on blank postcards, so I'm trying to source a similarly cheap set of 50 or 100 postcards for around the £3-£5 mark *if* possible... I know you can make your own ones but it takes too much time and I don't really have anything left to make any out of lol.

    If anyone sees a good deal please let me know, as I find it difficult to find the right sort of things on Ebay, its mainly vintage or collectable postcards that appear when I search there and on Amazon single collectable postcards go for over £2(!). Even if I could just get 10 or 20 for £1-£2 would be fine actually, considering stamps aren't cheap, I'm not sure if I'll end up buying 50 or 100 stamps just for these comps, come to think of it! please let me know if you see or know of any good deals all the same though, ill consider it,

    Thanks!

    First thought is to have a look in any £ shops you have nearby although I think they would more likely be blank.

    I'll have a browse and see what I can find online

    Not sure how usable they'll be but worth a shot. If there is writing on the back, just cover it with a sticky label

    If you search for Avery you'll find loads of free label samples. Think Drooler had made a list of them.

    Just a thought, if you've got any old birthday cards or Christmas cards, just cut the back page off

    Thats what I did last time, I don't have any left lol (well ok I do have some cards but those I wouldn't want to cut up, I want to keep them for sentimental reasons). Its a good tip though, its always a good thing when you can recycle old items that would have otherwise been thrown away...thanks

    Ah well, postcards are no longer needed now, I managed to find an auction on Ebay for 100 postcards with no bids and bought them for the starting price, £3.50 incl. P&P. I wouldn't have paid anymore but it saves me having to try and find a ton of free ones... thanks for the help HC
