neither sold postcards. Greeting cards galore and Target had paper that could be sent through a printer to make postcards, but no actual postcards. The only places I even see postcards for sale anymore are tourist destinations.

(I had gone to look for some for sending Postcards to Voters)

you can order them in bulk from Amazon, but I could not find them locally in my suburban CT location.

usually they have local-themed postcards, as do many tourist attractions. At my local postcards-to-reps meeting, we cut cardstock into fourths to make postcards. You could then draw on them yourself.

Not the kind with pictures on them, but I think these teachers are looking for messages of support, not specifically picture postcards.
