These Holiday Cards Will Make Up For No Present

Listen, nobody likes to be a Scrooge, but it's hard to slay every single Christmas gift for every single person on your list... which is exactly why you need to call in the holiday shopping pinch-hitter — aka the Christmas card — when your gift-giving game gets strained by lack of resources (e.g. money, intel, imagination). In fact, spending a little time scooping up some of the best Christmas cards on the market now will save you a lot of potential embarrassment and shame later this month when it's time to open presents. (And let's be honest, this year has already been shameful enough on the national level. Cough, cough, ugly cry: Here's looking at you, Donald Trump!) Sure, you might not know what to get someone, especially all your peripheral someones, but a funny card that serves up some LOLs and snickers is the perfect distraction from your mediocre (or nonexistent) present.

But, where do you even star looking for the best Christmas card for your loved ones? Lucky for you, I curated this list of hilarious holiday card options to help you save Christmas. And that, my friends, is how you sleigh.*
