Emily Post - Hand Written Thank You Notes Still Required by Etiquette Experts

@ 09:34 PM (34 months, 29 days ago)

 

Thank you notes, once feared a dying form of correspondence, are making a comeback via e-mail and text messaging but etiquette experts are reluctant to endorse anything but a handwritten note.

Peter Post, a director of the U.S.'s Emily Post Institute that offers etiquette and manners advice, said increasing numbers of people had stopped writing thank you notes and were telephoning instead to thank for a holiday gift or party.

But the proliferation of e-mails and text messaging on cell phones meant people were writing again to thank people.

I say an email or text message is better than nada

  1. I'm with you. If you're writing to a libbie, just tell him/her that you're doing you part for the environment by saving trees.

  3. Why waste the finger clicking to write to a liberal anyway?

  4. What the heck, I'll eliminate all thank you's to my liberal friends, return the Christmas gifts and donate the money to the RNC.
