Christmas Cards Per Card: Which Boxes Cost Least

Christmas card prices tend to move as the holiday gets closer, so it helps to look at the cost of each card instead of the price on the box. This guide covers the 5 lowest-priced boxes in the current data and explains how to compare them.

Which Christmas card box is cheapest per card?

At the time of checking, the lowest price per card is $0.24 per card. That box holds 100 cards and costs $23.99.

The next boxes in the ranking are close behind:

• Second place: Beautiful Christmas Cards Set of 20 with Watercolor Designs..., 20 cards for $6.99, at $0.35 per card.
• Third place: Image Arts Religious Christmas Cards, Assorted 24-Pack..., 24 cards for $8.99, at $0.37 per card.
• Fourth place: 24 Pack Christmas Cards Boxed with Envelopes, 6 Pattern..., 24 cards for $8.99, at $0.37 per card.
• Fifth place: Christmas Cards with Envelopes and Stickers, 24 Pack, 6..., 24 cards for $9.99, at $0.42 per card.

The gaps between these boxes are small, so a modest price change can reorder the list. The full ranking is always on the Christmas cards comparison page.

Is a bigger box of Christmas cards always cheaper?

No. A large count does not guarantee a low cost per card. Compare the box ranked first, with 100 cards for $23.99, to the box ranked second, with 20 cards for $6.99. The counts and sticker prices are very different, so only the price per card shows which one is the better value.

A bigger box also makes sense only if you will send the cards. If you write a short list, a box you cannot use up is not a saving, however low the price per card.

How do I compare Christmas card boxes fairly?

Dealophant divides the total price by the number of cards in the box. This puts every listing on the same scale, whether it is a small box or a large one. A few things are worth checking before you rely on the number:

• Confirm the card count on the listing, since the same design is often sold in several box sizes.
• Check that envelopes are included if you need them.
• Look at the card dimensions, because a small card and a large card are not the same product.
• Note any extras, such as stickers, that may or may not matter to you.

You can read more about the method on the how it works page.
