Everything in my house needs to be in order hours, not minutes, before company arrives. Because of this, it came as no surprise to my business partners when I suggested we order our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gallerycollection.com\/christmas-cards.htm\"><strong>holiday cards<\/strong><\/a> in June. Sure, most people wait until the temperature drops below 80 to even begin thinking about this, but I figured, why not get them now?&nbsp; That way if someone sends out the same cards as me, I can be sure I got them first!&nbsp; The nice summer sales on holiday cards are good reasons as well.<\/p>\n<p>To tell the truth\u2026it\u2019s not just because of my \u201cGet things done early\u201d nature that has me purchasing our corporate Christmas cards in June.&nbsp; It\u2019s part of it, but there is something else.&nbsp; The holidays are my favorite time of the year.&nbsp; I wish everyone had the Christmas spirit all year round.&nbsp; By ordering my cards in June, I get a little bit of that feeling again.&nbsp; Looking around at all the holiday images gives me a little taste of what I can expect come November and December.&nbsp; Something about Santas, Christmas trees, and snow just puts me in a good mood.&nbsp; I even once had the urge to send out mid-year Christmas cards just to see what kind of reaction I would get.&nbsp; That idea was one my business partners were able to talk me out of, however.&nbsp; Well, I\u2019m still glad to say my 2011 corporate Christmas cards are ordered and I plan to have them written out by the end of the summer.&nbsp; As to when I actually send them out\u2026that\u2019s not decided yet.&nbsp; I think around Thanksgiving sounds nice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"I always like to get things done early.&nbsp; In college I was never that person to pull an&hellip;","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","csco_page_load_nextpost":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1292,1299,4],"tags":[41,196],"class_list":{"0":"post-2988","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-occasions-and-celebrations","7":"category-expressing-thanks","8":"category-business-christmas-cards","9":"tag-holiday-cards","10":"tag-corporate-christmas-cards","11":"cs-entry"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Why Should I Wait To Order My Holiday Cards?
