I agree great place to buy greeting cards, nice variety at a fair price. The three stars are for poor customer service., unfriendly staff was not very friendly this morning.

This is my favorite place to go for nice cards(I used to go to Party City, but the lights and cheap crap gave me a headache!)– I mean, if you think about it, most people save their cards for a few weeks and then toss it discreetly– so why spend $ 4 and more for a card? The highest price I’ve seen here is $ 1.99, lowest $ 0.49. You aren’t going to get the super funny, crazy cards that you might get from Hallmark brand, but there are still nice, religious, funny, or plain cards to choose from. Some of them sing, many have glitter, etc etc. They have cutesy items for gifts as well, and gift bags/wrap. The present items are a little pricy in my opinion, but its more appealing to look at than the other card store I used to go to. The store is clean and well organized, with nice staff.

This is the type of shopping center/store that you drive by a ton of times and never think twice about. I strongly recommend everybody stop next time. If you are a card buyer, THISISTHEPLACETOGO!!! I will never ever ever buy cards anywhere else! I got nice quality cards ranging from 49 – 99 cents. I noticed they even had cards in other languages like German and I think Portuguese? And I mean, there were probably 5 – 10 German cards, not just one lame one off to the side. The amount of variety here in general is very good. They’ve thought of everything and given you the best price to boot!

Enter Card Frenzy where fancy boutique meets greeting card chic! First off, I was blown away by this store’s extensive collection of fun and funky gems that can spark up any outfit without breaking the bank. A tremendous past find included a striking, chunky Lucite daisy necklace with matching dangly earrings. As a jewelry junkie, I think my heart literally skipped a beat during this purchase! The rest of the store is a menagerie of reasonably priced greeting cards, assorted kitsch, and the typical card store fare such as stuffed animals and chocolates. I was certainly whipped into a frenzy after visiting Card Frenzy(and you will be too!)

Cute store. Apart from a BIG selection of cards, there are a ton of gift wrap/bag items, small gift items(candles, books, bags, jewelry), some candy… You can definately save a lot on cards by coming here. They aren’t crazy fancy cards, but they don’t look very cheap either.

We came across this store while we were out shopping for shoes at Marshall’s and TJ Maxx. I suggested we stop in to pick up a mothers’s day card for Sunday while we were out. We got a card for«mom» listed price was $ 4.50. Our price was $ 1.99. We bought a card for a wedding, listed price $ 3.99, our price was $ 1.49. These were really nice cards. They didn’t look cheap. I’ve never bought cards from a discounted card shop(because I wasn’t aware there was such a thing.) I would fully expect, and would pay the full listed price. We also bought a roll of wrapping paper. $ 3.95 is listed on the manufacture sticker but we only paid $ 1.50. This little shop had all kinds of things in there. We were in a little bit of a hurry so we didn’t shop around. They have a huge selection of cards, gift bags, bows. ribbons. They also have little gifts like headbands, jewelry, wine glasses, scarves etc. I LOVE saving money. Now that I know where to get cards and gift wrap for about half the price, I ABSOLUTELY will!
