Do you send online greeting cards or paper ones?

Dialogue

Matthew: Hi, Yuki. Where are you going?

Yuki: I’m going to the post office, Matthew. My mom asked me to mail these New Year’s greeting cards.

Matthew: Oh, does your family usually send paper greeting cards?

Yuki: Yes. We usually send a card with a picture of my family and a handwritten note on it. I love receiving paper greeting cards with heartwarming personal messages. They make me happy.

Matthew: Paper greeting cards are nice, but I think online greeting cards are better. Many of my family members live in different areas of the United States and some of them live in other countries. Online cards are more convenient.

Yuki: That’s a good point, but wouldn’t you prefer a card with a personal message?

Matthew: Well, you can add personal messages to online cards. Also, there are a lot of creative and unique options, like adding music.

Yuki: Really? That sounds like fun!
