Christmas Card List & Address Tracker 2026 – Google Sheets & Excel + Printables (Letter & A4)

Every December the same hunt: whose address changed, who sent you a card last year, and how many stamps you need. This tracker keeps it all in one place and carries over from year to year.

It's a ready-to-use spreadsheet for Google Sheets and Excel, plus 10 printable pages for anyone who'd rather keep the list on paper.

What it does

• Address Book: one row per household, with the name as you want it on the envelope, the full address, email or phone, a group (family, friends, work and so on) and notes. Type each address once and keep using it.
• Sent & received log: Sent and Got columns for 2026 through 2030 on every row, so you can see who you always hear from and who you've lost touch with.
• Dashboard: pick the card year to see how many households are on the list, cards sent, still to send, cards received and anyone still missing a street address. It also works out cards needed (with spares), boxes to buy, postage for home and abroad and what's left in your budget.
• Mailing List: fills itself in with everyone on this year's list who gets a card by mail. Ready for mail merge, or copy the envelope blocks.
• Label Sheet: the same addresses laid out 30 per page for standard 1 in x 2 5/8 in address labels.
• Address Changes: a quick log for "we moved!" news, so you remember to update the book.
• Checklist: card season jobs from early November to January.
• Handy flags: a pink cell when someone on the list has no street address yet, and a green name when their card arrived before yours went out.

What you get

Good to know

• No macros and no add-ons. Works in Google Sheets (File → Import), Excel for Windows, Mac and the web, and opens in LibreOffice/Numbers.
• Stamp prices change, so you type in the current prices yourself. The file doesn't look anything up.
• Labels: print at 100% (actual size) and test on plain paper first, because printers differ.
• Instant digital download. Nothing is shipped.

License: personal use only. Please don't resell, share or redistribute the files.
