I do both but usually send more e-mails because I am taking care of information that needs to be handled more expediently, is less expensive and I am pretty much guaranteed to be received by the intended recipient. I send cards in the snail mail for every possible occasion I can think of. The main stay holidays that I cover are Christmas, Birthdays, Valentine's Day and Sweetest Day. Sweetest day is the third Saturday of every October and let's you appreciate the sweetest people in your life. It is a mid western Holiday and I am originally from Wisconsin. Almost impossible to find Sweetest cards in Colorado! I sent Sweetest day cards out two weeks ago and put a lottery ticket and five dollar bill in each card toliven up the Holiday a bit.

As one of the older generation, I have many peers that refuse to learn the new technology and won't do email.  They don't know what they are missing!

I do both but mostly emails.  For the people who do not do emails you have to sent it the old mailbox way.

I get angry when i have to pay for a stamp when I feel they should provide a stamp, like the voting envelope.

The only times I resort to using good old fashioned snail-mail, is when I need to pay a bill by check. I don't really like using this method of paying bills, but I prefer it to paying with more recent technology such as on-line paying. Some online payment methods charge you an admin or processing fee to pay the bill so of course I don't use those, but I will use my credit card to pay for all electronics, online or not, because of the benefit of the extra coverage your credit card company gives you if something goes wrong.

Really?  I have never been charged to make a payment online.  I know locally if you want to pay your taxes with a card they want to charge you like a 3% fee.  Screw that.  I will write a check and they can take to the bank, wait for the transaction to complete, and get their money several days later. :)
