Place to buy nice Valentine cards for the class?

[Anonymous]

Other than Target and CVS, where can we buy some Valentine cards for DDs class? Normally she makes them but she just isn't feeling like doing that this year. I'm wondering what store might have slightly nicer quality ones? Thanks!

Target has barely any this year. They seem to have all shifted to candy ones. I gave up! LMK if you find a good source for brick & mortar.

FYI Etsy usually has pretty good customizable printable ones. If you don't find any to buy, although high maintenance, those could be cute. You could buy nice cardstock & stickers etc.

I was shocked by Target's small selection. We ended up with the boxes of Conversation hearts.

Don't bother. Really. When DS was in preschool we made them but once we were in elementary it was too much. All the kids care about is the candy anyway.

I was going to suggest this, too.

I buy them on Amazon and recently found them at Paper Source and Child's Play. Very cute, and no need to write a message, or attach a pencil or candy.

I always go to stores that hand out free ones. Last year we did Krispy Kreme's for a free donut. This year we did Carmen's (located in Rockville) for a free small water ice.

My kids just sign them and if the parents want the free item, they take their kid anytime they want. If they don't, they can toss it.

I spend no $0 on them. Kids aren't forced to have candy that I get them or a stupid plastic trinket.

Who are you impressing? Kids don't care. Get the $4 ones from Target.

So you give kids an ad. Nice.

I don't think kids care about the quality of valentines. They end up in paper recycling within a few days.

Kids just want the candy. Get over yourself.

Don't bend over backward and just print some out. (Google "free printable valentines".) Within 8 hours of handing them out, they are going to go straight into the trash can.
