Did you re-check all of your cards?

Last night I pulled out our wedding cards and shower cards to start organizing them for the card-book I want to make...and low and behold, I found a $30 GC to CB from a shower card, $75 check in a wedding card and $100 to BBB in a wedding card, over $200 of credits we didn't know we had!

Yipee!

Anyone else have this happen?

  • No, but I wish!

    Lucky you.

  • Seriously, I wish this had happened to me. On the other hand though, now you have to write more TYs :P

    Thankfully just for the check...the other already had TY's written, we had just assumed the GCs were already added into our pile since we had them written down on our lift.

     But you're right, for the check we had just assumed we didn't get anything from the couple,especially since they didn't attend the wedding.

     

    SO, S/O:  Should I mentioned in the TY that we recently found the check?  Should we contact them to confirm it's okay to cash?

  • I would include something in the note about it getting mixed up in the cards. I don't know about contacting them, depends of the person. Example, if it was a check from a person like my dad I wouldn't worry about cashing it, but if it was my sister I would worry about overdrawing her account.

    In answer to the original question, yes :)
    When we opened everything, we wrote down what everyone got, so writing the TY's wasn't an issue. Then I would forget things are in the cards. Actually, I think there may be a few things still in there...

    Anywho, how would you make this card book? I mean, I assume it's like a photo album but with cards, but how are you planning on making it?
    I would like to do something with our cards as well :)

    Same here! lol  Ours are totally empty now, even though I am sure finding something would be amazing. 

    Side note, we did receive a card with nothing in it and nothing wrote in it, just a blank card lol.
