Default where to get Italian postcard in Calgary

My Brother is taking a school trip to Italy in the spring so for Christmas I am getting him Euros. I thought it would be a good idea to have his Christmas card be a Italian postcard with the money.

any ideas if I can get an Italian postcard somewhere in Calgary. Obviously has to be blank

The Italian Store in the south may have something like that; otherwise, perhaps check Lina's on centre street?

Scarpone's - 5130 Skyline Way NE

It's just off of McKnight and Deerfoot. I was looking for some Christmas goodies and a staff member told me they're getting in full shipments of things like cards etc. in the next few days.

Lina's on Centre Street should be a fairly easy bus trek from downtown. I feel like the cross street is around 21st Ave

Use Microsoft word and use the card template. There might even be a postcard template you can download. Put some pictures of Italian stuff along with some Italian text. Print on card stock paper.

Boom, Italian postcard.

There's a new Italian supermarket at Southland and Fairmount. No idea if they have postcards, I just go for the food. But it's a pretty big place, so they probably do.

I go to Lina's regularly. I don't think they have any postcards.

Since you've still got over a month to go, could you not order one on ebay or something?
