[Offer] EASTER CARDS But many for specific individuals (Part 1) [Worldwide]

17 points · submitted Feb 2021 by u/twerptwo · Fulfilled · archived

I've been putting together Greeting Cards for my local Health Centre (the Hospital and two Personal Care Homes) for special occasions (Christmas, Valentine's Day, Easter, Canada Day (being in Canada), Labour Day, Thanksgiving and Halloween)! For each occasion I drop off approximately 200 cards at the Volunteer Centre at the Hospital! And other volunteers distribute the cards!

Easter's coming up! (No surprise there!) And I found an incredible offer on e-bay of a package deal of 531 Easter cards that worked out to just under 20 cents per card that I paid! Obviously this was old stock of Easter cards from a card shop! (Or someone has a very unusual Easter card collecting passion! lol!) The majority of the cards had no envelopes but I've just ordered 6" by 9" envelopes from Amazon since the cards are that size! (I'm no dummy and can figure out envelope sizes I needed to fit the cards into! Duh!)

However, when purchasing these cards I knew that some of them would not be suitable for the Hospital/Care Homes since there were cards for Wife, Husband, Grandma, son, daughter, from both of us, from our family, fart joke type cards, etc. Aha! Me thinks! This is where RAoC comes in to save the day! Cards just arrived yesterday afternoon! If you would like a card that has RandomActsofCards and my username written on it along with an Easter Message and Easter themed stickers (if there's room on the card), then feel free to request a card. Here are the first and second set of pics of cards available to claim!

If you would like a card for whatever reason (Hey! I'm not gonna judge you! Oops!) then PM, DM or chat message me an address and indicate the card number you are requesting! One card per household please! There will be future Part 2, 3, etc. offers posted very soon as I work my way through sorting out this collection! And consequently offering cards to you that I cannot use for the Hospital/Care Homes! Cards will be mailed out as soon as Easter stickers become available locally for me to buy!

Will update on Imgur images if card has been claimed or how many of a card design still available since some card designs have more than one copy. Enjoy (or Not?)!

twerptwo [OP] 2 points · Feb 2021 · :3K:

Found 2 more copies of card 16 as I'm sorting further through the card collection! And I have your address in my chat messages! Cheers!

snowpiepine 1 points · Feb 2021 · :1-9:

I'm so happy to know that!! Thank you so much 💗💗

twerptwo [OP] 2 points · Feb 2021 · :3K:

Yeah they have the same card designs mixed randomly throughout the collection! Glad I found the one you wanted! Cheers!

snowpiepine 1 points · Feb 2021 · :1-9:

ignaposts 1 points · Feb 2021 · :200-249:

Do you still have other 16?

twerptwo [OP] 1 points · Feb 2021 · :3K:

Card 16 is available! Send me your address!

twerptwo [OP] 1 points · Feb 2021 · :3K:

Sorry! Card 16 has been claimed! Want a different card?

snowpiepine 1 points · Feb 2021 · :1-9:

It's alrighty. It was relatable :P maybe next time I'll claim?

luxsloth 1 points · Feb 2021 · :500-999:

Not claiming, even though I have to say there are some very good cards in this collection! I mostly just want to say thank you for sharing your cards, not only with this community, but the one IRL as well! I’m sure the people in the health centres really appreciate it. 💜

twerptwo [OP] 2 points · Feb 2021 · :3K:

I appreciate the thank you very much! I never see any of the people in the health centres but I've been told the cards are loved! Especially with covid when so many can't see loved ones or friends! And the staff really appreciate the fact that it cheers up people! Helps relieve stress a bit! Feel free to request an Easter card (I think I can spare one since there were 531 in the collection lol!) And I have unclaimed St. Pat day cards if you'd like one of those as well! I'll stuff both in an envelope and if you'd like a card or two also please send me your address! All the best, take care and stay safe! Cheers Norm

luxsloth 1 points · Feb 2021 · :500-999:

Lol you’re quite right: you have a ridiculous number of Easter cards! I’ll keep an eye out for your next offer, for sure. It was just alarming to think that far ahead to Easter. I’m very much a last minute kind of person. 😅

Seriously though, you are amazing and generous. Keep up the great work, Norm! I really do think you’re having a positive impact on people’s lives, both here and in real life. Cheers!

Aw I love these! Has #17 been claimed yet?

twerptwo [OP] 2 points · Feb 2021 · :3K:

Nope! Lots of copies of card 17! Send me your address!

TheFeistyFox 1 points · Feb 2021 · :1K:

I'd love # 17!

UseYourRuler 1 points · Feb 2021 · :200-249:

Hey twerptwo, hope you are doing well. I would really like card 17 the shopkins card. You really lucked out with these cards. You are a sweetheart to think about those in the hospital. Stay safe.

twerptwo [OP] 3 points · Feb 2021 · :3K:

A copy of card 17 has been set aside for you! And I have your address! Best deal on cards ever for me! I've been doing the hospital for about four years now and one of the most worthwhile efforts I've ever been involved in! I never see any of the recipients but have been told the cards are loved! Even more so with covid where they often can't have visitors! Some people though have apparently questioned the motive of the cards they're given! "Am I supposed to pay something? Or is this a promotion to buy stuff later?" World has become somewhat jaded for some since they can't believe they're getting something with no strings attached! The hospital now prints a little sticker to attach to each card explaining that the cards are anonymously donated just to cheer up the individual! (I'm sure you've had the same experience on RAoC where a person is making a first time request for a card and asks me if they have to pay. Or how does it work? Some people can't believe you get anything for free!)

Also as an aside the Shopkins card has been one of the most popular requests! And I've never heard of Shopkins but when I saw the card I thought Nah! Nobody's gonna want this card! Go figure! EDIT: All the best, take care and stay safe! (My current mantra!)
