Our first post...

Hello everyone and welcome to our first post. :)

We wanted to bring you more features & news, so we have taken the plunge & set up this blog. Hopefully time allowing it will get updated at least once a week & hopefully more. As many people hate having newsletters clogging up their inbox we will be using this blog & our twitter page to up date you on everything going on at A Card 4 U. We will still send out the very occassional newsletter though. If you have converted to either our Twitter updates or our blog updates you can un-subscribe yourself from our newsletter in your account area.

I have become addicted to Twitter as it is a quick & easy way to make short announcements like the arrival of new products & special offers (so you will be the first to know), as well as generally chatting to our followers!! It's fun, so if you fancy ago just click on the follow us on Twitter link in the left hand column. You can see the last few entries we have made above the link. These will change constantly!! LOL To follow you will need your own account, or just pop in when you want.

OK to start with here are details of our September Competition.

WIN : £10 worth of shopping points to spend on whatever you like in our shop each month.
