Are thank you cards dead or something?

This is just a short rant, but someone posted a thread about thank you cards and it reminded me. I’ve been to probably 10 weddings total (all within the last 3 years) which may not be a lot? I’m not sure. But out of those 10 weddings, you want to know how many thank you cards I’ve received? THREE....

Is this something people skip a lot nowadays? I can’t really fathom not sending them for both the shower and wedding....

    My ex-in-laws have commented several times on how wonderfully I'm raising my daughter because I make her send thank you notes. It's just second nature to me. If you don't thank the person verbally (in person or on the phone) then a thank you card should be sent. I also make sure I keep a list of who gave what so I can thank them for the specific item. If it's a gift card then I tell them what I plan on doing with it.
