    greeting cards downtown

    Vermont Artisan Designs has a good assortment of greeting cards. i have a friend from Boston who, whenever he comes to visit, always picks up a decent supply from there. I do not know how much more expensive they are than your typical Halmarks, but at least they are available. And unique.

    "Hallmarks", that is

    Sorry for the typo.

    (I’ve noticed that the new iBrat does not seem to have the “edit” option which had been available in the old version)

    Cards Around Town

    They also have lots of cards at Everyone’s Books and Altiplano. They cost between $4 and $5 each, so pricey, but there are quite a few cards. If you’re looking for something Hallmark-like but cheaper, there’s the Dollar Store on Canal Street down from Pricechopper. They have a whole aisle of cards and they’re all $1 each.

    That said, I too miss Bakers…

    Lots of choices

    There’s no shortage of places to buy greeting cards in Brattleboro. All of the Rite-Aid and Walgreens have large varieties of fairy inexpensive cards as does Market 32 and Hannafords.
    The Co-op has some cards- pricey but lovely . As previously mentioned all the dollar stores carry cards more like a Hallmark store type. Everyone’s Books
    is my favorite place to get cards – they have a good selection and more unusual- often edgy cards. Not for everyone, I understand.
    The town is certainly in short supply of some things- greeting cards is not one of them.

    Cards

    I did my due diligence.
    All the pharmacies plus the 2 markets have decent card sections at $3.00 and up. The Dollar Store wins hands down! They have more cards, and they’re all a Buck. (some are 2 for a buck). I bought a few, and they were actually Hallmark.
    I didn’t try Everyone’s books.
    Thanks for the help!

    And, people here make them

    You can also buy card-making materials and create your own cards. Zephyr’s and Staples usually have blank cards with envelopes.

    And quite a few local artists make or can make you a custom card. Farmers’ market sometimes has some.

    More cards

    In addition to art supplies, Zephyr has some lovely unusual cards, as does Ruggles & Hunt.
