Touchnote apps have always been free, but now it is also free (normally $1.49each) to send physical postcards until August 31. Sponsored by Samsung.
Free from the Android App (latest Version). iOS users need to use the Web interface.

Thanks Aviator.
Just remember any online postcard you are creating and sending is getting put on the postcard wall for all to see. Shows the pictures and the names from and too. No big issue but thought you's might wanna know.
Cool. I like to send sexytimes postcards and am quite the exhibitionist. Not attractive to look at by any means. I hope they provide their staff with vomit bags.
I'd hate to see your facebook wall….
There is an option to share it on the postcard wall. You can choose to remove the tick in the box.
Whereabouts is this box? Thanks.
as i understand it, the free postcards have the olympic logo on them?
oh wait it says on the android description "all postcards are FREE until 31 August 2012"
I wonder where they ship these postcards from? Possibly South Korea?
You can send international postcards from India for $0.10 AUD and from Taiwan for $0.08 AUD but it would cost us $1.60 to send a postcard overseas! Or 60 cents just to send one domestically. It's possibly even cheaper from these foreign countries if you send in bulk.
Samsung would be making a killing if they found the cheapest overall country for manufacture and shipping and still charged $1.49.
They already have other companies doing this, so it sounds like a profitable scam to get into if you could become the industry leader…
Or maybe Samsung has made so much money (thanks to Galaxy Note and SIII) they can afford bulk international postage?
It's OK, answered my own question…
"All postcards are processed within one working day.
Postcards are printed and then posted from the UK, Germany, US and Australia.
In these countries postcards arrive within three days. Arrival times to other
destinations depend on local postal services and can be up to three weeks."
awesome find - thanks ops :)
wondering if this is unlimited? =)
How exactly do you get it to send it for free? I tried both the Android app and the web interface, but after creating the card it's telling me to purchase one credit and asking for my credit card details.
Good find. But just make a note that it doesn't work in the iOS app, I had to put the order through via their website from a PC.
