I’ve been a huge fan of the Aranzi Aronzo on-line store for awhile now. I love pretty much everything they have, but I’m especially fond of their postcards and books. Images like this one make me completely lose it; they are so cute.

Their stuff can be expensive because of shipping, etc., and I agonized over what to get the first time I placed an order. However, everything I received was SO worth it. (Ok, well it felt worth it to me at least.) How can you not feel happy inside when you’re looking at something like this?

It gets better.

Just before submitting my order, I saw the option to join the Aranzi Aronzo post club. For 900 JPY (about $8 USD), you receive one post card each month. I subscribed and promptly forgot all about it.

Somehow I got dropped off of the list, and when they caught their mistake they sent me a lovely e-mail:

As the two cards are delayed, we would like
to extend your subscription for two months.
It should be from vol. 13 to vol. 26.

And I will inform you by e-mail whenever I post
a card to you from next time.

Again, thank you very much.
I hope you will receive the envelope safe and sound.

Warm Regards

So now I’ve been getting all sorts of extra attention, e-mails, and stickers – and that doesn’t even take into account the postcards. They are like little warm fuzzies in my mailbox.
