#18: Postcards are So Vintage
If you’ve never sent a postcard in your life, think of it as an “old-fashioned” text message. We put “old-fashioned” in quotes because it’s hard to believe that this fun form of communication is almost extinct. It doesn’t seem that long ago when sending a postcard to a loved one was the norm.
Postcards were great because they were a cheaper way to send a message to someone through the mail. A postcard stamp cost way less than a regular postage stamp. Plus, there were tons of fun postcard designs that you could send to someone as an inside joke or a way to express yourself. There was nothing like getting a postcard from a loved one who was traveling in a far-off place.
