There's a short sign up time, but 10 days mailing time.

Guess I need to go to Wal-Mart today to make sure they still have the Virginia Presidents card.

OMG, OMG, OMG, how did you know I was going to do a pc swap just like this 1? I went to the Truman Library earleir this month ,& they had several types of penny pcs. 1 of which was for him & his wife too.

I will be signing up for this when it gets closer to the due date. For now its on watch.

I forgot to mention the pcs there were on sale for 1 penny each, I bought $5.00 of each type they had for a penny

I collect Presidential homes and many have the first lady on them. I won't be sending any from my collection but I am looking forward to sending out a card.

I can never find postcards in our Walmart. Grrr.

@BBQ you're welcome to copy if you want to make one sent in envies only.

Yay they still had it. Ours has 4 racks full of cards. Each rack holds at least 20 different cards. The other walmart that has cards around here has only like 20 designs. Our oceanfront Forbes store has them for the same price as walmart but I won't to down there until tourist season ends because $10 for locals to park is stupid.

All the Walmarts in our area stopped selling postcards. I don't know why we are a big tourist area. BBQ sounds like a great deal!
